Once upon a time...
Deep within the walls of a gloomy castle in the equally gloomy land of Draxsylvania,
the young, gifted opera singer Mona De Lafitte is held captive by her tormentor,
vampire Baron Shrowdy von Kiefer. Ever since she was transformed into a vampire by
Shrowdy and whisked off to Draxsylvania, her greatest wish has been to return to
Paris, continue her singing career, and one day become a star at the Paris Opera.
When Shrowdy fails to return from a nightly foray, she at last sees an opportunity to
flee. Together with her only friend and confidant, a cheeky bat named Froderick,
she escapes from her prison and tries to find her way back to Paris. During her flight
through Draxsylvania, where she encounters some strange inhabitants and some even
stranger challenges, Mona must learn not only to accept her vampire nature, but also
to use the abilities she has acquired to her advantage.
The classic adventure "A Vampyre Story" is penned by Bill Tiller, who was involved
in the creation of such milestones of the genre as "The Dig" and "The Curse of Monkey
Island". Players use a point-and-click interface to direct Mona and Froderick through
a richly detailed world consisting of more than 30 beautifully hand-painted locations
that utilizes real time 'Multiplane' camera technology, that entice the viewer to
examine and explore. On her puzzle-filled journey to Paris, Mona meets more than
20 3D-characters, ranging from the just plane silly to the very strange, in over 15
hours of brain-teasing fun.
