Dracula 3: The Path of the Dragon for PCDracula 3: The Path of the Dragon is the latest in the PC Adventure game series and is set for release on August 12, 2008.

Story
September 1920: As Father Arno Moriani, you are sent by the Vatican to Transylvania to investigate a candidate for sainthood. But, in the shadows of the ruins that were once the castle of Vlad the Impaler, otherwise known as Count Dracula, your investigation takes an unexpected turn as the strange stigmata on the corpses are not the hallmark of some divine power. In fact, the villagers see it as the “mark” of Count Dracula. The bishop decides to carry out his own investigation to determine once and for all whether the vampire truly exists. But the reality is deceiving. Fiction is powerful. Doubts arise. And doubt begets fear.

Dracula 3: The Path of the Dragon’s features include:

* A nail-biting investigation on the dividing line between myth and reality, folklore and history, medicine and superstition.

* Thwart the shady schemes of the occult forces, using only your wits and logic. Compare, deduce, and solve the riddles barring your way and hindering your investigation or use the mouse to draw cursed symbols written in letters of fire!

* Compare and decipher mysterious papers, old tables, manuscripts, engravings, precious vases, rune stones, ancient prophecies dating back to the origins of mankind and get to grips with the most modern encryption process known in 1920 : the famous Enigma machine!

* Interact and communicate with the many colorful characters in the adventure, either face-to-face, by post or the era’s ultra-modern means of communication: the telephone.

* Set off on your adventure from Rome to Transylvania, Budapest to Turkey, venturing as far as the ancient cave prisons from which Vlad Tepes allegedly escaped.

* Mouth-watering graphics, cutscenes and special effects, guaranteeing a dark and engrossing gaming experience.
