it was not what i expected. it's so easy...I'm on the second cd withing two hours. Well, i have to confess that i stuck at library of the dracula a little and don't know what to do. It has some interesting graffics, so well created. Anyhow, it's not one of the best adv.games and i wouldn't recomend it.

Must Buy Game!

I bought this game yesterday and I love it! It is the best Myst type of game out there! I'm not that far because I'm playing another great game called Vampire the Masquerade Redemption! I definitely recommend it!

Good so far......

I just bought the game and it is going fast. There are a few glitches in the game, but the graphics are great. It is rather easy if you are a fan of Myst. I do recommend buying it, but try to see if the price drops first.

A bit too short

I must say this game had great 3D graphics. The only problem was that the graphics slowed the game down. This game dealt too much with just searching around the area for things that can be used. The game needed more puzzles to solve. Moving around from place to place took too long. Then just as it was getting good the game ended without a puzzle to solve. But I did have fun playing it.

Pretty good

I just finished the game. It was very interesting plot. the puzzles and finding your clues are fairly easy with only 2-3 challegaing ones in it. There are many ares to explore and advance to the next level. The only problem I had was you could not move the mouse or keyboard during the animation or the game would stall and you would have to reboot. This is a great game for people getting started in action games. It only took me about a day's work to finish. The end was great and left it open to a sequel to the game.

I'd Rather Be Watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer

This was more of a point-and-click movie than a game. With fine graphics and a variety of characters to interact with, I expected more than what this short, easy game offered. While the storyline was interesting to a point (rescue-the-girl is not very original) the end was simply an opening for a possible sequel rather than a satisfying conclusion or even a showdown with Dracula or his henchmen. The most interesting thing to do in this game is to laugh at the unfortunately named character, "Dorko," when she says "Tremble before the rise of Dorko!" In short, beginners and/or people who like pretty graphics more than a challenge will enjoy this game--seasoned gameplayers will likely be disappointed.

Amazing Graphics and Animation

This game has awesome graphics and animation, seamlessly blended together. It looks more like an animated film than a game. The sound is also very cinematic - powerful, dramatic, reminiscent of the best film scores. This is great if your main reason for playing games is to explore cool worlds and enjoy the scenery/storyline, but if you are more interested in a challenge, this may not be the game for you. Some of the puzzles are moderately challenging, but there aren't many of them. The game ends too soon, after 4-6 hours. Buy it anyway. It's an experience you shouldn't miss.

Very, very spooky

You sit there watching the intro movie. Suddenly you find yourself in a snowy countryside - outside in the dark - with a full moon overhead and THINGS rustling around. You make for the inn right in front of you, but the whole building is hung with garlic bulbs. It really doesn't feel much safer ...

Dracula is a seriously unnerving game. It's not gory, it's not full of things running after you - it's wandering around in dark places at night with rustly, squeaking noises around you. It's even worse when you get to the castle and you can hear stone grating around, apparently by itself-?

The graphics are very good, the characters precisely modelled, right down to bad teeth. (Ugh.) The scenes are brilliant, even the snowy outdoor scenes which are reputedly a nightmare to do. The story is also exciting, as you not only try to rescue Mina but to avoid Dracula's peasant henchmen and bats, as well as taking the really dangerous route - of course - to the castle. But the animations are truly spectacular, in particular Jonathan's escape from the mine in the cart.

There is one downfall to Dracula: namely, it's very dark. Not gothic dark or plot dark, just plain dark. Most of the time when you're indoors you can't see where you're going. It wouldn't be so bad, but key items and locations are hidden in these dark areas. I had to use hints just to FIND things.

Other than that, this is a good game, if a bit short.

Disappointing

How anyone could rate this game above two stars is beyond me. I was thoroughly disenchanted with this game. Although the graphics and the cinematic seens were impressive, the fun factor was VERY disappointing. Don't expect for this to be a high action, role-playing game with lots of shooting, explosions, and weapons. The actual gameplay is limited with too many cinematic scenes. Player interaction with the game is severely low. Don't expect to use a gamepad with this game: the player is limited to the use of the mouse without the keyboard. This game has left a very negative impression on me toward the makers of this game: Dreamcatcher Interactive. I'll think twice before purchasing another game from this company.

Incredible grahics

I really enjoy a good adventure game. This one has some of the best graphics I have ever seen to date.

The storyline and gameplay are very good. Some of the puzzles are easy, but the graphics make up for that flaw.

I am eagerly awaiting a sequel.
