Way to go, deleterman! The last cutscene was great, wasn't it!

I haven't played the game, but the general consensus seems to be that Path of the Dragon is quite good but also very difficult.

Yes. I played it and found it fairly difficult in parts - but really enjoyed it all the same.
And I certainly liked the story thumbsup

I played it and found it difficult in parts even while using the walkthrough. I didn't like this game as much as the first two.

The first two are the two you just played, Dracula: Resurrection and Dracula: The Last Sanctuary.

Yes, sorry I wasn't clear. I liked Dracula 1: Resurrection and Dracula 2: The Last Sanctuary quite a bit more than I liked Dracula 3: Path of the Dragon.

Thanks Marian! wave

It's a lot different than those other 2 games. I guess it just wasn't what I was expecting the first time I played it. I thought I might like it better the second time since I knew what to expect but duh still not so much anyway. Maybe it was just the one puzzle that gave me so much trouble that ruined the game for me. I'm not really sure anymore. I do know, I probably won't ever play it again but hopefully I will play the first two again at some time.

Don't let ME discourage you though. A lot of people liked this 3rd game a lot!

I haven't played it because just looking at the walkthrough in order to help other people through the game, I could see that I would be hopeless at it. I do have the game in my GOG purchase history, but seeing some of the puzzles in the walkthrough really diminished my interest in it. It's a cool-looking game, though.

That is the first game. You just played it before playing The Last Sanctuary.

Do you have Dracula 4: Shadow of the Dragon and Dracula 5: The Blood Legacy? They are both on GOG as one item. I would wait for a sale though. You can get them much cheaper then.

I have seen Dracula 4 and 5 on GOG for a total price of about $5 during a good sale.

Dracula 4 and 5 (2013) are like parts 1 and 2 of the same game and should definitely be played together.
They are shorter and easier than any of the previous games.
They were developed by Koalalabs and published as downloads by Microids.

Dracula 2 (2001) was more difficult than Dracula 1 (2000) because of more danger of getting killed and having to go back to a save. Too much drowning in sewage to suit me. I also got eaten by a giant bat because I was so busy laughing at how silly it looked.

Dracula 3 (2008) from Kheops Studios is different from any of the other Dracula games -- not like the first two, and not like the last two either. It seemed a lot longer -- longer than Dracula 2 and possibly longer than Dracula 1,2,4,5 put together. Kheops put a lot of effort into it.

Dracula 3 had by far the ugliest Dracula of any Dracula game I've played, and the story was the most depressing. I wouldn't say it was a bad game, but it really wore me out on Dracula. It was long and hard and I kept getting lost and stuck, even with a walkthrough.

Dracula 1 was my favorite of the Dracula 1-5 series.
The best environments in Dracula 2 were also in Dracula 1.
No drowning in sewage in Dracula 1.

I really don't like autosaves, and Dracula 4 and 5 had autosaves.

In Dracula 1 and 2 you play as Jonathan Harker.

In Dracula 3 you play as the priest Father Arno Moriani.

In Dracula 4 and 5 you play as Ellen Cross, art restorer.

+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+

My favorite two Dracula games are the ones from Frogwares:
Frogwares published Dracula Origin (2008), a puzzle-oriented game where you play as Van Helsing. At first I didn't want to play it because I thought "Oh no, not another Dracula game" after playing Dracula 3. But MaG said Dracula Origin was a nice puzzle/adventure game and I should play it. So I did and it was. I enjoyed playing Dracula Origin a lot more than Dracula 3, which was also released in 2008.

And about 3 years later Frogwares published Dracula: Love Kills (2011), one of the best casual HOPA games (in my opinion) with better, more interesting puzzles than most HOPAs. In Dracula: Love Kills you play as Dracula, teaming up with Van Helsing to defeat the Vampire Queen. Igor is hilarious. The game as a whole was easier than Dracula Origin, Origin being an adventure game.

There are other, older Dracula games from other, unrelated developers.
There was Dracula Unleashed (1993), a DOS game that had a re-release on DVD player, where you use the remote to "play" the game. Even the DOS version seemed limited in what you could do to interact with the game.

There were also the comic games Drascula (1997) and Dracula's Secret (1996).

Drascula is now free, and downloadable from the ScummVM website.
https://www.scummvm.org/games/#drascula
and you can find a walkthrough for Drascula here:
https://www.walkthroughking.com/text/drascula.aspx.

Draclvr probably knows of more Dracula games than these.

My opinion exactly of Dracula 3! The ugly Drac alone was enough to put me off, but it just seemed like a long slog.

How opinions differ lol

Dracula 3 was a sombre and more difficult (at times) game but I enjoyed the long and involved story laugh
