I'm not sure if this is the right place to post this, but I just finished playing this game. I was very disappointed that is was so short, at least that's my opinion. Otherwise it is a good game, graphics are nice.

Thanks GrandmaG
This is indeed the right place. How long did it take you?

It took me about me about 4 hours give or take a few breaks!

Wow, that is quick. Did you follow a walkthrough?

Yes, I used a walkthrough for one puzzle. I found the puzzles relatively easy.
Just a side note - We have a lab-grayhound named Baby!

Hi fellow Boomers. I finished playing this game, and frankly, I was very disappointed. I have played ALL of the previous DRACULA games and they were TRULY Adventure games. In my not so humble opinion, I find that this game was a CASUAL game, and just a glorified HIDDEN OBJECT game. What happened to the good old-fashioned Adventure games that we all enjoyed a few years ago? Very frustrating. I consider Dracua 4 to have been a waste of money.

With The Raven coming out, Jack Keane 2 and another Tex Murphy, maybe there is hope, sanford. When I looked at that trailer for Dracula 4, the first thing I thought was casual game. I'm really sorry for those of you who bought it expecting a full adventure game and were let down.

GrandmaG, I bet she is a doll
Sandy, sorry you were disappointed. I believe Traveler is right and that this one was more of a casual type game. I think it is a matter of profit.

Hi Traveler and looney4labs,
I'm glad that I'm not the only one who tagged this game as "casual". I just pre-ordered "The Raven" a few minutes ago. Hopefully,I won't be disappointed again. I bought the package of three chapters, the first of which is supposed to be released on July 23.

Thank you GrandmaG for your thoughts - they are very much appreciated as are all of the comments that followed! I think I will be giving the game a miss until there is more of it!
