Incredible Dracula was one of the few Time Management games that I actually purchased as a Collector's Edition, but it looks like these devs weren't taking any chances of losing sales! The first thing I noticed was how amazing the graphics are, they have always been good, but this time they are, well...simply Incredible!

Incredible Dracula was one of the few Time Management games that I actually purchased as a Collector's Edition, but it looks like these devs weren't taking any chances of losing sales! The first thing I noticed was how amazing the graphics are, they have always been good, but this time they are, well...simply Incredible!

If I remember correctly, the last game in this series (scroll down for the series list) had replaced the BloodDonald's food with donuts which were a big mistake, but they're back...yea for BloodDonald's burgers...would you like fries with that?

All your favorite characters have returned as well as some new ones! Rufus the undead worker, Elizabeth aka Princess and her furry sidekick Vlad, Frankenstein, Ghosts, Witches, Mermaids and more, but unfortunately, Incredible Dracula is mia at first but does catch up eventually.

There are 50 Levels and 34 Trophies to earn, and you can play in a Normal, blood-sucker mode, a Casual mode for chilled vamps and a Free mode with no timer to cut your fangs on. You can earn up to 3 Stars per level and any level can be replayed as often as necessary, and because this game is definitely Strategy-based, you probably will have to replay a few levels!

There are the usual yet unusual TM tasks of collecting resources, clearing paths, repairing and upgrading BloodDonalds Restaurants, Sawmills, Quarries, and Laboratories. You will need to Craft items to help you progress by collecting specific ingredients, as well as concocting Magic Potions along your journey, and of course, you'll have to help a gazillion different characters, by solving their dilemmas and situations, before they can offer their assistance to the cause of ridding the world of Vargosi before he gives everyone a bad reputation. Vlad will help track footprints left behind by Vargosi, but not even your faithful companion works for free, so you're gonna have to throw Vlad a bone, or two, or three, that you find along the way.

If you're new to the TM field, this is the perfect game to sink your fangs into! The Free Mode will help you learn how to play frustration-free. The only problem is that you'll become spoiled by this Top-Notched, hilarious, fun and incredibly addictive game because I can't think of a single TM game that is of this caliber! Enjoy your blood-burger and fries!

An old friend and fiend have returned. This has always been a fabulous series and this one won't disappoint once your eyes get used to it and you familiarise what resources are most important

Gameplay is classic I.Drac. Lots of running around, building resource buildings, clearing the road, mixing potions and spells, and talking to many characters along the way.

I had a few reservations at first as it wasn't until level 12 that the background screen finally came out of the dark. I found the ambience a little hard to work with in that environment, including seeing what resources I needed as the box was transparent making it a little hard to see until you got used to it. The main strategy in this episode is with which buildings to head for and upgrade first. I had to repeat some levels just because I didn't get that right first time.

One new feature are altars that you cannot pass until you find the goods to make a destruction spell, and a mist that blocks the screen so you cannot proceed until you find those items also. There are spiderwebs you must craft an axe to remove or you are stuck yet again. So lots to think about and do.

The level of challenge is as usual, quite difficult and getting harder all the time, however for those familiar with the series you will know the speed you must work at. There are various 'speed up' bonuses. There is a relaxed mode, casual to line up tasks, and expert for those who 'REALLY' want it difficult.

This is classic fun and games with a now beloved series. This chapter has enough new things to wrap your head around even for those who have already got the full collection of games. And remember, this is an SE, there is no guide. I am actually enjoying that to be honest, makes me proud I worked it out myself. (at this early stage lol) A great game! Show less

I recommend this game!

Ah! Dracula! I love this "bloody" game. Now the count is away and his wife has to take charge with a little help from her friends, Frankenstein and Vladdy. The story is as cute as the characters and dialog. I hesitated to give this a 5 only because I had trouble when clicking on items. Sometimes I had to click 3 and even 4 times to get the checkmark for pickup. Some green circles were hard to "hit". Maybe it is just is my computer. I have only played a few levels but doesn't seem as hard as some previous Dracula games. I am sure that is going to change down the pike! But even with all that, I HAD to give my vampire family their props. LOVE IT! So will any TM fan! Enjoy! Show less

Another engaging and challenging TM from this series with only one quibble - I miss the collectables! Devs, I would have bought the CE version if it came with collectables and a strategy guide! This game (actually, the entire Incredible Dracula series) is one of the very, very few in which a strategy guide comes in handy. And collectibles are a must for those slow spots where you're just gathering what you need. I almost gave the game a 4 because of those two things. But, it's a great game and I am really enjoying it so 4 stars wouldn't be fair.

Plus it'll last longer without a guide because I'll get to replay the levels. Show less

Every once in a while a TM game comes along that I love and Incredible Dracula Vargosi Returns is one of them. Although TM games are not my favorite genre, they have evolved and many offer a relaxed mode of play without a timer. When I found the first Incredible Dracula game – Chasing Love – my curiosity was tickled and that began my love affair with Incredible Dracula. I have every game in the series and think that Vargosi Returns is excellent. I like the fact that I don’t have to buy the CE or wait several weeks until the SE comes along.

Since I am not an expert in playing TM games I am so thankful for the Free Mode where I can play the game without being stressed over accomplishing the goals in a timely manner. The graphics in this game are simply excellent and crisp – a good thing because the scenes are quite busy with things to do and sometimes it is difficult for me to find my way. I was a bit disappointed that my pal Dracula wasn’t in the game at first but I was happy that he did finally show up. That being said, it is so much fun seeing the other characters in the game such as Frankenstein.

This series is wonderful to play particularly at this time of year as we approach Halloween but I have often played the games at other times particularly when I need a break from playing HOPA games. This series brings something new to the table and it is so much fun to play Incredible Dracula with all of its humor. I love Vargosi Returns and think it might turn out to be one of my favorite games in the series.

If you have never played TM games and would like to dip your toe into the genre, I highly recommend trying the Incredible Dracula series. Even though I love this game, as always please try the demo to see if you will enjoy Vargosi returns or others in the series as well. Happy gaming! Show less

I recommend this game!

I have the other games in this series so was glad to see this one. It has three levels of play including a relaxed mode. I played the medium level on the trial and it seemed easier than the previous games in this series. This was actually a plus for me because I found some levels on the previous games so busy that it was hard to get three stars without major frustration. I was able to get three stars on the first trial so far but it may get more difficult. I play for relaxation so that was fine with me. Not quite as intricate graphics as others but easy to see and still a fun story line. Music is the same as others. Enjoyable overall! Show less

This series has always been awesome and it's great to see the original creepy music being brought back. Does anyone know what Frankenstein says when he's assigned a task? It sounds like "I am Frenchy" but that makes no sense.

Lots to look at with colorful and nicely created graphics and sound track. Our charming and humorous characters return. It's a nice change to have Mrs. Dracula on a quest to save her husband.

I like having to figure out the strategy to get 3 gold stars. I played some episodes over again for gold. All I can add is fun, fun and more fun.

The only thing, I didn't like was if you clicked on the 2 men any time during the game, it would take you through the long dialogue again and that is 6 mouse clicks to get through it. I would like to see a skip dialogue button. Not a major problem for the overall enjoyment of the game.

I hope this series continues. Thank you, developers, for the great gameplay. Show less
