Operation Dracula
Release Date: July 29, 2015
A mobile top-down shooter game, inspired by classic arcade hits of the late 1980s and developed by Samurai Games. The game's name was inspired by the codename of a World War II military operation. The game is a typical representative of the bullet hell shooter and focuses on exterminating waves of enemies, which always greatly outnumber you. The pace of the game is incredibly fast and to survive you need good reflexes.
Operation Dracula is a production of independent Samurai Games studio designed for mobile devices with iOS system. Contrary to the somewhat misleading title (taken from the Second World War military operation name), we are dealing here with a classic scrolled shooter, inspired by automatic hits from the end of the 1980s.
The game is the quintessence of a species called "bullet-hell shooter", and the game boils down to the extermination of successive waves of enemies, representing the prevailing forces of the enemy. The action takes place at an extremely fast pace and requires a considerable amount of reflex to avoid missiles coming in from each side. However, traditionally we have at our disposal a large arsenal of weapons, with which our ship is equipped.
Players have three playable characters and one bonus character (Count Dracula himself), which can be unlocked as the game progresses. In addition to a multitude of smaller, mass attacking enemies, there are also nine bosses waiting for us in the game (including five exceptionally demanding ones). For those who are not satisfied with the basic game, the creators have also prepared a number of challenges with a very high degree of difficulty.
Operation Dracula clearly refers to pixel-shaped Asian shooters from the 16-bit era and is characterized by colorful graphics in anime style. The gameplay is accompanied by a dynamic soundtrack with over 30 tracks in which guitar solos come to the forefront. It is worth noting that the production fully cooperates with external controllers connected to mobile devices.
