What's good: After an incredibly long slumber, Dracula has awoken from his grave, and, of course, being the malevolent bloodsucker that he is, plans to lay seige to various human strongholds and conquer our race! In accordance to his plan, he abducts a child and drinks its pure blood to gain the superior powers necessary to conduct his evil mission, then proceeds to unleash the fury of hell over mankind. Naturally, you play the hero tasked to save our world. Battle your way through twenty five stages filled with Dracula's hordes of faithful minions and throngs of fierce bosses that relentlessly come at you in varying speeds and angles. Use weapons such as garlic cloves, crossbows, pistols, and shotguns in combination with special attacks that use the powers of lightning or a venerable wooden cross to defeat impossibly tough enemy waves. Controls are simple but require precision and fast reflexes - tap a point on the screen to fire in that direction and aim where you estimate the opponent to be by the time your defenses hit. After each stage, you are able to upgrade selected weapons, which you must do so strategically so as to afford effective campaigns every time. With three difficulty modes, aptly dark cartoon graphics, and realistically horrific sound effects, this first-person action shooter will suck you in as you sit back, relax, and begin your adventures as the Blood Hunter in this chilling tale of evil's domination.

Suggestions for improvement: It would really help players if a portion of life is restored at the end of each stage because it gets a bit overwhelming when you have to battle hundreds of enemies with few hearts left.
