Summary
Based on one of the most reputable horror stories, Dracula, This all-new PC title brings him back to life in the chilling exploration title Dracula: The Resurrection.
Dracula is very much an exploratory title, and because of this, it’s advisable only to play this game if you have a few hours to spare, otherwise you will return having forgotten everything you did previously. Presented with pre-rendered backdrops, this point and click style title has a very distinct RPG feel about it, although not in terms of the traditional hit points and magic points you would traditionally associate with an RPG. Dracula is purely story driven. You must find as many physical clues as possible and use them to put together the puzzle of this strange title.
The exploratory element of Dracula accounts for about ninety percent; the rest, is about presentation. Almost any interaction you get with other characters is presented in the form of FMV. While this title won’t get the ardrenalin flowing, it will have you racking your brains for ages. Take a cold winter evening, turn the lights off, power up Dracula, and prepare to be chilled.
