In Legacy of Transylvania, players will embark on a harrowing tale of vampires and hidden objects, as they work their way towards becoming the king or queen of an old Gothic castle. They'll be guided through their adventure by a stubby gargoyle named Dante, as players acquaint themselves with a colorful cast of quirky characters and mysterious environments. The result is a highly stylized hidden object and social experiment, with a sense of depth and intrigue that is matched by few others, and an ease of accessibility that would even allow Dracula himself to pick it up and play.

The game starts out with your fairly typical hidden object and social hybrid tropes, like replaying the same scenes over and over again in order to level up and add new items to your inventory for questing purposing; the use of an energy system (called "Light points" in this game); and the endless pages of "Collections" to complete, a concept I still just can't seem to grasp for whatever reason, no matter how many times I've seen it in action before. However, once the quests start rolling in (and trust me, you'll quickly have upwards of 10 to tackle in your Questlog at any one time), and the hidden object mastery requirements start stacking up, you're going to need to sacrifice plenty of precious real-world sunlight just to stay on top of it all.
