  • story
    20 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The story of "Dracula: Resurrection" receives mixed reviews, with some players appreciating its engaging plot and atmosphere, while others criticize it for being weak and poorly executed. Although the game offers a satisfying storyline for fans of the genre, many find the voice acting and graphics lacking, detracting from the overall experience. Overall, it appeals to those seeking a narrative-driven adventure, but may disappoint players looking for depth and quality.

    • “New gameplay features such as item combination and a more prolonged storyline fit this game perfectly.”
    • “The characters, the puzzles, the plot, and atmosphere of the game remain; if you liked Dracula 1, you will surely like Dracula 2.”
    • “I am oddly drawn to these types of point-and-click games purely for the sake of the story and (somewhat dated) art design.”
    • “A shabbily done quest that is repulsive from the very first minutes.”
    • “While the mood is decent, it's rather ugly; the story is just as stupid as the one it continues, and what little it has to offer is completely ruined by horrible voice overs.”
    • “The storyline lacks any real appeal.”
  • graphics
    16 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The graphics of the game have been widely criticized for being outdated and lacking detail, often described as reminiscent of 16-year-old technology. Many users noted that the visuals are pixelated and inferior to the original version, with missing cutscenes and items that detract from the overall experience. While some found a certain charm in the retro style, the consensus is that the graphics significantly hinder gameplay and immersion.

    • “Dem graphics though... seriously.”
    • “Granted, the animation and graphics are a bit on the old side, but it adds a bit of charm, and at times unintentional humor.”
    • “- the graphic looks oddly 'pixelated', like when you resize a small photo to make a wallpaper.”
    • “The voice acting is stale and the graphics leave much to be desired.”
    • “Not only was I unable to progress any further, but the quality of the graphics is incredibly bad compared to the first game and compared to videos of this game I watched on Steam before purchasing it.”
    • “Half of the puzzles are missing, the graphics are worse, some bad translations, books/notes can't be read, videos are missing, sounds are different and missing, music is missing and the game may not even be completed because of bugs!”
  • stability
    8 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's stability is heavily criticized, with multiple users reporting severe bugs and glitches that hinder gameplay, making it nearly impossible to complete. Many describe it as a half-finished product, likening it to a buggy demo rather than a polished release. While some players note that it is technically completable, the overall experience is marred by instability and frustration.

    • “Ridiculously buggy to the point where you can't complete the game.”
    • “It's not a finished functional product, it's a really buggy demo version.”
    • “Bought the game with the bundle that has all the Dracula games mostly because I had the first on the PS1, but god damn this is a half-finished pile of shite filled with bugs and glitches where I can't even get through the first level just because I can't get the damn oil can. I hate to say this, but just get a pirated version of the game or just buy the original CD if possible.”
  • gameplay
    6 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay features new item combinations and an extended storyline, enhancing the experience despite some lingering clunky mechanics reminiscent of the first game. While the gameplay is generally smooth and the game has aged well visually, it suffers from being an abridged version with missing content and broken mechanics, leading to a mixed reception overall.

    • “New gameplay features such as item combination and a more prolonged storyline fit this game perfectly.”
    • “Gameplay is very simple and rather smooth, and the game has aged well for an early 2000s title, with decent animation and cinematics.”
    • “I ran into no game-breaking bugs this time, so that was an improvement, but I did feel the mechanics were clunky still, just as the first game.”
    • “If you watch the trailer and other gameplay, you'll find that this version is an abridged one.”
    • “Sadly this game, just like Dracula Resurrection (the first game in the series), is not the full game but a rather dull iPhone/iPad version with lots of motion video missing as well as broken mechanics.”
  • humor
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's older animation and graphics contribute a certain charm, often resulting in unintentional humor that adds to the overall experience.

    • “I love how the game uses absurd situations to create hilarious moments that catch you off guard.”
