by MINKYMONKEY. Comment: "This game latter came out on the NES and in my opinion the 2 sequels which followed were much better than the first. The coin op version is not a smooth play and you can easilly get frustrated by the enemies that get you at every turn. Basically you are a adventurer inside the castle of Dracula. Your aim is to eventually get to the vampire himself and kill him. But beware your in for a long journey. With the NES it didnt matter how many times you tried a particular area or fought with a certain enemy-it was free! If you played this game in the arcade I think you would now be wandering the streets looking for any spare change on offer. Seriously this was a great NES favourite but not really a coin of probability." (2005-08-06 14:04:30Z)
