Vampires becoming trendy

User Rating: 8 | A Vampyre Story PC
I haven't played a good adventure game in quite some time, so i must say that this game really came along just fine. "A Vampyre Story" let's you play the role of Mona, a young opera singer, in her quest to return to Paris. Mona has been trapped by Shrowdy von Kieffer, and turned into a vampire. The journey of a thousand miles starts with the first step, so in order to reach Paris, first, our leading lady must escape from Shrowdy's Castle.

The story takes place in Draxylvania, which is a cartooney version of the real Transylvania. The place really is appealing. Personally i thought the scenes were very captivating, nicely colored, and they really keep you in touch with the story. The interface is easy to use, it's a simple point and click game,and it makes it very accessible.

The puzzles are mostly of common sense. If you're a fan of the genre, you'll ease through the most part of the game. Though there are a couple of puzzles that got me a bit stuck,it's nothing to harsh, so all and all it's an average difficulty game.

The characters that you get to interact with vary quite a bit from gargoyles and horses to witches and ghosts. They are not to well defined, but still they make a good impression.

The story....the story in my opinion was great. It really kept me in front of my computer for a while...but the end...i certainly didn't see that one coming. It really feels like the story has a big gap, and it definitely needs to be continued.

All and all i thought the game was quite good, but the ending really pissed me off.(that's why i only gave it 8). Hope you'll enjoy playing it
