Pick of the Month

August 2017

Embark alongside Dr Ego Goodmind on his journey through vaguely Eastern Europe to teach superstitious locals the benefits of modern psychiatry. With art worthy of the Great Mouse Detective and a story Gelliant Gutfright would bite for, this game is the perfect remedy to your pathological need

Terror of the Vampire impresses with a well thought out story, fleshed out and interesting characters (the cook is the best!) and beautiful pixelart. And on top of that are some awesome graphics effects that are all done by manipulating pixels by code and not prerendered effects from whatever graphics manipulation program you have, all done by code. Sometimes our hero, Dr. Ego Goodmind is a bit too wordy in his character and the beginning of the game seems a bit aimless, but that's exactly how Dr. Ego Goodmind feels at this point while the story slowly build up. The actionpacked soundtrack reminds of the good old SNES aera games (just like the pixel effects do!) and the puzzles are varied and enganging! A small masterpiece in Adventure game development with quite some playtime, done in only one month, WOW!
Also the download of the game features concept art, character sketches, a cover poster (or poster cover) and some! What do you want more????

Also a Longplay of Terror of the Vampire can be found here (5+ parts over ~1 hour !!!)

Part 6 is just the end credits with more awesome character art and sparkling graphics effects :)

Kickass graphics and animations, excellent dialogs (if sometimes long), good puzzles and catchy soundtrack - the game has it all! Every character has a distinctive personality and I liked their evolution. Well done Scavenger, Eggie and EHCB.

wow just wow, amazing graphics, great animation and great story, congrats to the creators, and thank you for the effort put the game together.

Awesome, just awesome! Lovely art, lovely story, great puzzles and interesting game play and effects. (nod)
For me this game suffered of a lack of reactions/reply from hotspots, as I wanted to leave and couldn't understand why it just wouldn't leave. Also had some problem getting Ego into the kitchen as I clicked he would walk there, but then didn't exit to the kitchen.
I ended up doing stuff without knowing why I was doing them, and I never did get my supper! But was nice to be able to do the stuff "out of order"...

This game has truly fantastic story and atmosphere, and lots of heart to it, and despite being a humorous game with some very funny dialogues, the ending felt surprisingly touching and thought-provoking.
