The Dracula Files Game Review

Set in modern day California, The Dracula Files follows the descendants of the legendary vampire slayers Van Helsing and the Harker family, to investigate a suspicious character by the name of Vladimir Draco. Since the mysterious death of their parents in a hotel fire, Michael and Quinn Harker is starting to believe that the old stories about vampires, and in particular their ancestors struggle with a certain Count Dracula, may just have some truth.

A letter has come into their possession warning of the rise from death of Count Dracula and the need to contact the Van Helsing family if they suspect anything sinister. Now they have reason to worry as their friend has mysteriously disappeared near the Draco Winery. You must quickly decide a course of action to put an end to Dracula for all time.

The Dracula Files takes you into a fabulous story and as a hidden object game, one that will lead you to battle werewolves and vampires, while you seek out vital clues in scenes full of mysterious items and valuable artifacts. A classic hidden object game played over 30 levels, with unique mini games, sound that is perfect for the scenes and objects that also suit the layout. While some may consider the objects a little small and hard to locate against the dark and spooky backgrounds, the hints system is unlimited and you can also hover your mouse over the item on the list and be shown a silhouette outline of the item, which makes it a little easier on those strained eyes.

The Dracula Files has both a timed and relaxed playing mode and involves some player interaction, where you use certain inventory items. You can skip mini games without penalty, there is a second pause if you have too many random clicks.

The Dracula Files isn't an easy game due mainly to the difficulty of finding smaller objects against dark backgrounds. If you can stick with it and overlook that downside to the game, the story is strong enough to sweep you headlong into a very enjoyable adventure, battling the infamous Count Dracula to the bitter end.

I strongly suggest that you try the free download as your opinion of The Dracula Files may be quite different from mine. I found the game very enjoyable and the items not too difficult to find, yet many on forums disagree and are not giving this game a good review. Give the demo a try, it's free and who knows, you just may become a good vampire slayer and enjoy the action.
