Better than most Dracula games
You play entirely as Abraham Van Helsing in this game and while it initially seems like it is going to make some effort to follow the novel Dracula, it doesn't take long for it to go off the rails and be Dracula in name only. Having said that, the plot isn't the worst thing about the game. This is on the whole an adventure game. You'll want to do adventure game stuff, like find stuff to pick up, possibly manipulate it by combining it with other items in your inventory. What you probably were not expecting was to have to do a bunch of math puzzles nor were you expecting to have to push a bunch of balls to form a specific pattern. If these do not sound fun, you are going to want to find yourself a walkthrough before purchasing. The game can be played entirely with the mouse where you navigate by clicking on screen, but there will be times where the camera angle shifts such that anyone who played Resident Evil will be having flash backs to RE tank controls due to odd camera angles. The worst of this occurs in the Cairo Museum, where you will find yourself wandering about looking for stuff and occasionally not finding it even though you're in the right area in general just due to the camera angle you currently have. Also as a side note, Dracula Love Kills is a direct sequel to this game where you play Dracula and still hot for Mina. Although it is a hidden object game with a rather campy plot, it is actually significantly more fun than Dracula Origin if you like the hidden object genre. I would give this game a solid 5/5 and because the copy of DLK that I have is marred with DRM, I will be repurchasing the GOG version... I wouldn't say the same about Dracula Origin.
