Item Description

In Bram Stoker's Dracula, the darkness keeps closing in. The journey begins in the Transylvanian countryside and pushes into the shadows of Castle Dracula, where the music turns bleaker and bats, wolves and the restless dead come pouring out of every corner. It is a clever way to make a licensed platformer feel like a horror story, and it gives every level a built-in sense of dread.

You play Jonathan Harker, the young solicitor from Francis Ford Coppola's 1992 film, fighting from the Transylvanian countryside through Castle Dracula and on to London. Harker fights up close and picks up limited-use weapons along the way to deal with threats from a distance. The story follows the film's outline: first Harker has to escape the Count's captivity, then he must chase Dracula across Europe to London and end his reign of terror before it spreads. Every stage is a mix of careful platforming and ambushes from the dark, and the Count's servants make sure no stretch of the road feels safe.

The NES version was developed by the British studio Probe Software and follows its own design rather than copying the 16-bit games that shared the license, playing much like the Game Boy version but with smoother animation and richer color. Its music comes from Jeroen Tel, a composer celebrated for his Commodore 64 work, and the moody, slightly eerie score suits the material. AllGame scored it 4 out of 5, well above its marks for the Genesis and Sega CD versions. Sony Imagesoft brought it to North American shelves in September 1993, late in the NES's life.

Players who have worked through Konami's Castlevania trilogy will find more gothic platforming to sink their teeth into here, and as a movie tie-in it captures the film's brooding atmosphere better than most NES adaptations managed.

About the game

Bram Stoker's Dracula is game loosely based on the 1992 film of the same name. It was released simultaneously for multiple consoles and while the plot remains largely the same, there are differing styles of gameplay and graphics across platforms. This version of Bram Stoker's Dracula is a platformer where you play as the young lawyer named Jonathan Harker. Harker must free himself from Count Dracula's captivity, follow him to London, and end his reign of terror.
