Fury of Dracula

                                       

We played Fury of Dracula yesterday. It's a co-op boardgame with four vampire hunters going up against one person playing Dracula.

                                       

The only trouble was, the Dracula figure was missing from the box; instead we had two Van Helsings. So Dracula ended up wearing a Christmas sweater for the duration. He also had a cross in one hand, but we decided he was wearing mittens so it wouldn't burn him. Problem solved.

                                        

I played Mina, who can sense if Mr. D. Is in the area, but can't take any bite wounds, because she already has one. You can only do the scanning thing if you're in the same city with another hunter, which led to a certain amount of nudge, nudge, wink, wink type of silliness... "Hey, handsome, wanna meet in Vienna and do the 'Special Action'?"

                                       

            Here he is, with only one health remaining. It took us four hours, but we finally got him. Fun game, if a bit slow at first. Definitely give it a try if you like co-ops.
