Dracula is a game about the salvation or destruction of Mina Harker. Six players champion Dracula, Renfield, the vampire Lucy, Jonathan Harker, Mina or Van Helsing. Each turn they pick a question from the game board and answer it. Another player judges how likely the answer is to happen and a die is rolled. Successful actions/arguments become fact. Facts build up to tell the story. Players can interrupt one another with counter arguments that are resolved by dice rolling contests. This is a beginner game that can be played by anyone. It is about vampires though so there is plenty of violence.
The game consists of a 16x21 color laminated sheet. It folds into an 8x10.5 folio for storage. There is a separate laminated rules sheet. The back side of the board has the front and back cover and an example of play. The game side of the board has a game opening blurb, a cast of six characters (each with a picture and short written description) and a large picture with plot driving questions listed on it. One question is the final question - which ends the game. The rules sheet includes all the rules of play including the "argument strength table" that players use to judge arguments with.
The game is available in a PDF and paper version.
