Mona de Lafitte led a successful life. As a famous opera singer in
Paris she had it all. Fame, fortune and countless admirers. One of
them was Baron Shrowdy von Kiefer?a vampire. But he didn't love and
admire her just because of her beauty and voice. She also reminded him
of his own mother who left him behind in the castle to go on the
search for a powerful book. Shrowdy tried and tried to win over Mona's
heart but she dared to send him away. So he did the only thing he
could do: Bite Mona, transform her into a vampire and take her with
him to his castle in Draxsylvania. Several years have gone by and
there is no day where Mona doesn't wish to be free and back in Paris.
Also trying to ignore the fact that she is a vampire, she became
friends with a cheeky bat named Froderick and when one day Shrowdy is
slain by a monk while on a hunt for more blood, she sees her chance to
escape the castle once and for all.
In a classic point 'n click adventure way, the player takes over the
control of Mona and directs her actions through a pop-up menu. This
way she explores the various locations, talks to people, creatures and
sometimes even machines in multiple-choice dialogues and picks up
everything that isn't nailed to the wall?or almost everything. If Mona
thinks an item may be useful in the future but doesn't want to carry
it around because it's too heavy, she places a memory imprint in her
inventory. This way the player doesn't need to remember where it was
and can just access it like every other item from the inventory. To
help the player even more with finding every clue and item to solve
the countless puzzles, a button press shows every hotspot in the room.
As a vampire, Mona of course also has the ability to turn herself into
a bat and reach points too high for her to access in human form. But
during the course of the game she will learn additional useful skills.
