Certainly this is a hard adventure to solve; even afterwards, going through a sequence to achieve the final staking of the vampire is by no means easy. Read Review

The program is very long, but I can't help feeling had it contained less rooms and more graphics/sound, it would have been tons better. Perhaps next time, Micrograf. Read Review
