### 2/5 — Had potential

*2023-07-19, version 1.0.0*

So difficult to move around in. No real map, so if you had to go ten steps back you’d have to move each step individually. HOP’s were ok, puzzles not so much. Certainly not worth what I paid for it.

### 4/5 — not bad at all

*2022-08-23, version 1.0.0*

i liked this game a lot. there were no bugs, that i came across anyway, and the visuals were quite nice. of course, i was saddened by the lack of collectibles and bonus chapter that i have been accustomed to. regardless, i enjoyed it, and recommend it.

### 4/5 — Good game!

*2021-10-10, version 1.0.0*

I liked the story as well as the hidden items and HOPs. I’ve played about a dozen of these kind of games now, but this one seemed to be better suited for someone at my level (casual).

### 4/5 — Good, A Bit Short, Good HOS

*2021-04-02, version 1.0.0*

Definitely fun.  Silly humor.  The HO scenes were well designed although somewhat old school.

### 3/5 — Average game

*2019-11-21, version 1.0.0*

Definitely not worth the full price. Was a bit clunky.

### 4/5 — Kisilova

*2019-06-25, version 1.0.0*

Really good game but too short for the $9.99 price.

### 3/5 — Nicht so gut wie andere aus der Serie

*2018-04-03, version 1.0.0*

Ich fand die Geschichte zwar insgesamt spannend und gut gemacht, aber zu kurz. Dann hat mich gestört, dass es keine Karte gab. Das Hin u. Her war dadurch nervig. Wimmler u. Minigames waren gut, wobei ich die MGs manchmal zu schwer oder schlecht erklärt fand. Schade, dass es keine  Sammelobjekte gab. Grafik u. Schauplätze waren dem Thema entspr. schön duster u. gruselig.

### 3/5 — Great story line but way too expensive

*2018-03-30, version 1.0.0*

If you’re going to charge that amount needs to be a far bigger a game.  Having said that, it was a load of fun, but I won’t spend that amount again. Couple of days for $15, not really cool at all.

Tone down the price peeps big time.

The developers are doing a wickedly brilliant job👍

### 3/5 — Beautiful graphics

*2018-03-28, version 1.0.0*

The best thing about this game is its beautiful graphics.  The rest is rather run of the mill.  The hidden object scenes are okay, though not difficult.  The games are too simple.  There is a map, but it only shows your location and where there is something to do.  No teleport.  Lots of moving around, as usual.  Little logic to the moves.   The hint system works well, which is good because you'll need it.

Update: 2018
This game came out 2 years ago, and hasn’t been updated.  Is it worth the $2.99?  No.  It should be $1.99.  The dialogue can’t be skipped; you can’t teleport; you have to go through the book to get to the map, you can’t do much of anything in the options, only two choices, and the hint takes too long to recharge., as well as all the previous observation.

Too bad.  I think I COULD have been an okay game.

### 3/5 — Kisilova

*2017-10-18, version 1.0.0*

Good story line, nice illustrations, but a little short and no bonus chapter. If purchase on sale, fair price.

### 4/5 — Kisilova

*2016-11-06, version 1.0.0*

Bin noch am Anfang, aber bisher ganz o.k., viele WBS, erst ein Minirätsel. Von Vorteil: man kommt ohne Karte aus.

### 3/5 — Disappointing

*2016-11-03, version 1.0.0*

It was a bit short and the puzzles were not explained fully so you had to guess how to do some of them.

### 4/5 — HINT BUTTON OUT OF ORDER

*2016-10-30, version 1.0.0*

A great game with interesting story about investigating Vampirism in 17th C. Good mini games, but if you need to rely on the Hint button, tough! It does not work 😊 So only 
4 stars because when we pay GOOD MONEY
we expect the game to be in 💯 % working order. 
Good job we do not need too many hints in this game or I would ask for a re fund.

### 1/5 — Game crashes!

*2023-07-21, version 1.0.0*

I was really enjoying this game, I purchased the full version, only to have it crash . I will try to delete the app and reinstall because I paid to play this! It’s a shame I really am a fan of Big Fish games, but I know I won’t get a refund so I feel like I’ve been robbed! Probably won’t purchase your games anymore.

### 5/5 — りん

*2019-03-10, version 1.0.0*

楽しい

### 5/5 — Vampire Legends.

*2018-12-01, version 1.0.0*

Very Awesome game. Love it. Pristine.

### 5/5 — NEW Bonus Chapter! Longer gameplay, yay!

*2018-06-11, version 1.0.0*

I had tempered my expectations based on mixed reviews, and I was pleasantly surprised to find an awesome game! The graphics, soundtrack and cutscenes are all top-notch.  Although the map doesn't enable teleportation, the journal is extremely detailed and informative, containing both a written chronology and key visual clues.  There is a mix of HOPs so it's not just word lists. And if you like mini games, you will love the THIRTY-SIX puzzles here!

For me, this game has just the right amount of eerie supernatural detective fun! It also contains a wealth of knowledge about the history and mythology in Eastern Europe.
The game features a number of creative and engaging extras, like the "real-life" video interviews at the end, to immerse you fully in the experience.

My only complaint is the length of gameplay, which wasn't helped by the absence of a bonus chapter. They probably should have put some of the time they spent working on extras into the main attraction. If the game has been longer, I definitely would've rated it a five.

UPDATE: I saw this game was on sale and couldn't remember whether I had played it, so I downloaded it again. There is now a bonus chapter, so it has to be longer!  That alone makes it a 5 for me, but I will come back and downgrade if the bonus disappoints.

### 5/5 — It's a good game

*2017-09-29, version 1.0.0*

It's a good game. It would be even better if the hint button was useable until the end of the game

### 5/5 — 幅広く

*2017-01-02, version 1.0.0*

思ったよりも楽しかった。

### 5/5 — Kisilova

*2016-11-01, version 1.0.0*

Facile et agréable à date
