Liberate the souls of THE RISING DEAD as the hunt for dracula is on
Company: Ascaron
Date: 06 Feb 2008
Ascaron Entertainment, Focus Home Interactive and Frogwares are pleased to announce the launch of the official website for Dracula: Origin. The new website can be found at http://www.dracula-origin.com/. Five new images of the terrifying adventure game from Frogwares studio, the team that developed the famous Sherlock Holmes series for PC are also now available for download.
Having successfully tackled the myth of Cthulhu in the award-winning Sherlock Holmes - The Awakened, Frogwares is venturing into the disturbing and fantastic world of the Prince of Darkness, in an adventure which combines romance, mystery and horror.
Young, charming and devout, Dracula was once an ardent defender of Christianity, but lost his faith in God when abandoned by his one true love. Dracula makes a pact with the Prince of Darkness, becoming a vampire with an insatiable thirst for blood and vengeance, doomed to eternal damnation.
Dracula: ORigin
In the game, you play the role of Professor Van Helsing, the celebrated vampire hunter, on the hunt for Dracula, who himself is on a quest for a mysterious manuscript that will give him the power to raise the dead. Your goal is to prevent Dracula from finding and using this manuscript, and killing him in order to liberate the souls of all those who have had the misfortune to cross his path.
Using conventional Point & Click gameplay, Dracula: Origin is a superb adventure supported by impeccable graphics and a rich storyline taking you to London, Egypt, Austria and, of course, to Transylvania; the famous home of the great vampire.
The world, inspired by the celebrated author Bram Stoker, is reproduced through 2D environments and animated 3D characters. All of the elements essential to the Dracula story, including horror, love, blood, crucifixes, stakes and garlic, are included in a disturbing and absorbing Gothic atmosphere.
