Leave a Review OPERATION DRACULA
could be.....
one of the best SCHMUP's on the AppStore if it wasn't absurdly difficult.
surprises me that the majority of reviews here and elsewhere share the same sentiment but the dev seems to not care or they would have tweaked the difficulty.
if you think you are a god at these games or you like playing for 30 seconds and quitting out of frustration this game is for you.Show lesskleerkoat
Finally made it to stage 5 on normal #~40 on Game Center lol
It's a good game. You kinda gotta memorize tricks for each boss and for parts of levels. There's no reason to die on level one or really even get his by the first boss for example if you memorize his 4 or so attacks. You don't really have to leave like an inch big section on the bottom of the screen even. I have no idea how to beat the stage 4 boss without dying a bunch but the cylinders (not diamonds) he shoots at you don't hurt so don't bother trying to dodge them. I'm sure it's beatable but itseriously crazy hard. 99% of the players probably don't make it through half the game. I've been looking for a game like this for awhile and this is great. Seems like something that woulda sucked quarters outta kids pockets 20 years ago.Show lessBill Fletcher
No analog stick functionality with MFI controller support for a SHMUP?
It's cool they implemented MFI controller support but it's practically unplayable being limited to a D-Pad without analog stick support for this bullet he'll shoot me up. Maybe it's my controller; Mad cats ctrli game pad but I don't think so. Besides that it reminds of some of my favorite arcade shmups like Armed Police Batrider and Batsugun. There are so many good shmups on this platform it would be awesome if somebody would make an iPad compatible Bluetooth 4 way seimitsu joystick gamepad for this purpose.Show lessnewlygrownappendage

Ok, second review here. Just fix the game please. I'd hate to delete it from my device...
On easy it's fine I guess but on normal it's just too tough. There's too much going on in the screen that are not bullets. That's an awkward sentence...Pomadour74
Great game but very difficult
I love the graphics but the game is just so tough to get through. Even at the easiest level I can barely get past the first two levels of the game. Not very happy with my purchase.chretienn
feels messy
it's pretty tough, messy to play really, I don't really enjoy it to be honest. menus are a bit weird and messy too.MWhittle

Beautiful looking game...terrible gameplay. Frustrating to play. Way out of balance. Don't waste your money. :<ImHowardMoon
Beautiful, but fun?
The graphics and soundtrack are awesome, obviously. But the gameplay? Not so much...
Losing power ups upon being hit is a horrible idea. Basically punishes people by leaving them underpowered most of the time as this game gets pretty hard. Bosses wouldn't be so bad if it weren't for the lasers and homing missiles. Hate those things! There is too much going on sometimes that can make bullets hard to distinguish. Finally, why are there not alternate control options? Double tap and bomb bar tapping interrupts me dodging bullets and moving the ship. Add a two tap option or buttons at least...
Overall, great presentation but lacking in polish compared to CAVE, Danmaku Unlimited, and Decluster. It's just not that fun to play. More frustrating.Show lesscta_x
Rediculous
Impossible to see what's on the screen with the touch controls.
Game balance is way off.
Waste of money.Home grown
Missing Sound Effects Since Latest Patch!
As the title states: since the latest patch, most of the sound effects are missing during the game. Using an iPhone 6 Plus. Operation Dracula would recieve a 5-star rating if the sound effects work!Neomedia74
