Most reviewers agree on the pros and cons. By far the strongest side of the game is the brilliantly realized combat. Hunting vampires gives a lot of satisfaction. A big plus is the wide range of weapons and abilities that can be used during skirmishes.
The Poles were also recognized for their great enemy designs. Unfortunately, however, their variety turned out to be too small and reviewers felt some weariness towards the end of the game.
The story layer, on the other hand, met with a mixed reception. Some reviewers appreciated the humor and the distinctive characters we encounter on our way. On the other hand, however, the whole story is relatively simple and boils down to a standard revenge story.
On the other hand, the technical layer of the game is considered the biggest drawback. The graphic design gives the impression of being outdated, and some more dynamic scenes, in which a lot of elements appear on the screen, cause frame rate drops.
