Bram Stoker's Dracula

In this shooter, you have to deal with undead. Not only with Dracula, as the title foreshadows, but that would be some untypical 3D shooter, anyways. Though it has the license of the Francis Ford Coppola movie based on Stoker's novel, there is little relation to events in the movie. Legions of the undead are rising from their graves, and it's your job to put a stop to the madness. To do this, you must purify the many creature-spawning graves on Dracula's estate while fending off the horrendous monsters along the way. Having Psygnosis’ name on the box can’t rescue Dracula from the tedious gameplay – rooms in the estate begin to resemble one another after a while, and puzzles are quite simplistic and boring (find key X to unlock door Y). I looked for that game for an eternity, because I played the demo version in 1993, but never found the full game those days. Sometimes I even thought I just dreamed that game and it never existed ;-). Anyways, here you can take a look yourself if you like.
