Very solid game. I played through a couple times and didn't defeat Dracula but I'd like to try again. Very creative idea and good use of the board. The game definitely created some interesting decisions. Quick moving. On my playthroughs I kept getting down to few cards or cubes, at which point there wasn't a lot I could do to come back. Only other thing I'd say is that some parts of the rules were a little hard to interpret, so I'm not totally sure I played the game as intended in all situations.
(rules only- have not played yet): This theme cracks me up, and the gameplay in my head reminds me pleasantly of Black Sonata while having very different mechanics. Even though the theme is so fun I feel like some of the things player can do don't EXACTLY match up as well (am I beating up witnesses?). Still, this one feels like a solo puzzle I would REALLY enjoy playing, and I can very easily imagine myself finishing one game and immediately going back in to try and get closer to solving it.
The three types of encounters are mechanically the same, so we just got into the habit of calling them the same thing. With more review, I probably would have caught that and fixed it to be more thematically appropriate. You only "fight" minions. You would "interrogate" a witness (or maybe a different term that sounds a little less hostile). If we do anything with the game past this game jam, it will hopefully be a little more thematically cohesive.
