2014-10-24 20:19:28 +0000 UTCAnother great review. The game seemed to be awesome for 1988 when most people did not know what a PC was.
2014-10-23 23:56:22 +0000 UTCToo true. It should've rocked way harder over here.

2014-10-23 20:04:01 +0000 UTCI wondered that myself. It came that way but I've no idea why!

2014-10-23 20:03:51 +0000 UTCodd.. why was one of the floppy disks sporting a green text label ?

2014-10-23 17:28:36 +0000 UTCIt's this sort of thing that makes me ponder why the amiga was never as successful in the states as it was over here in the UK....

2014-10-23 08:35:24 +0000 UTCVery awesome! I did (as my Ultra Maniac Gamer character) a horror episode on a classic DOS game i bought from GOG.com Personal Nightmare about two weeks ago! <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kgLuLMS3MP8" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kgLuLMS3MP8</a>

2014-10-23 07:09:47 +0000 UTCI jumped when Hugh Jackman appeared. Maybe because I replayed Vampire Bloodlines a few days ago. Also : Amiga is superior ! \o/

2014-10-23 06:20:05 +0000 UTCAlways wanted to try that one, I love the box art/title

2014-10-23 06:10:22 +0000 UTCI wonder that myself, I've only ever seen it loop over and over.
LGR
2014-10-23 06:10:05 +0000 UTCI saw the box in the background on your shelf and crossed my fingers it was an upcoming review! I played the heck out of DOS version. I wonder if there is an actual ending to the game. I couldn't make it past the third loop. It gets ridiculously cheap. I saw pics of the Amiga version and longed to play it.

2014-10-23 06:08:40 +0000 UTCNice review! This game is very similar to <a href="http://www.mobygames.com/game/horror-zombies-from-the-crypt" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">http://www.mobygames.com/game/horror-zombies-from-the-crypt</a> equally suited to this time of year ;)

2014-10-23 02:07:10 +0000 UTCI actually looked that up before making this review, and according to vampire lore, even upside-down crosses repel them since that's the symbol of Saint Paul.

2014-10-23 01:58:21 +0000 UTCIt came from the unreleased C64 version of this game.

2014-10-23 01:57:40 +0000 UTCWow! 10 places to save! Gotta love selling points for old games. :) Now, I feel like I should leave you alone with the orange Ubisoft registration card... looks like things were getting personal ;)

2014-10-23 01:09:45 +0000 UTCReminds me a bit of Monster Bash, which should be reviewed as it's a Halloween classic, especially episodes 2 and 3 of the registered version!

2014-10-22 22:31:00 +0000 UTCHuh, that music at the end sounds familiar, maybe I played this at some point?
Deveron
2014-10-22 22:15:55 +0000 UTCLooks interesting enough, the EGA palette only helps to make the Count just that bit creepier :) Shame it just devolves into a repetitive fetch-quest-a-rama though, because as you point out, it'd be interesting to play as the Count for once :)
Rob Caporetto
2014-10-22 22:10:47 +0000 UTCwell, it does look like an upside down cross so that kinda makes more sense.
