Climb up and down ladders to avoid the baddies. In this case
they are an unpleasant collection of werewolves, ghosts and
vampires.
You are a fearless friar out to sanctify the castle homes of these
poor creatures. To do this you must flood the floor of the castle
with daylight to kill ghosts and vampires or shoot werewolves
with a silver bullet.
It's not quite as simple as that, though, and the action can be
quite frantic.
Excellent use of Oric's colour, graphics and sound combine with
some nice animation to produce a good game.
I like the facility provided which allows continuous practice
without losing your lives. However in this mode you will not
be able to enter the hall of fame.
The standard Oric cursor keys are used for control. I find them
quite adequate, and wonder why more companies don't standardise
on this method.
Dracula's Revenge is, in summary, one of the better games
around for the Oric and should certainly find favour with the
games player - providing he is not frightened of the dark.
