the incredible adventures of van helsing follows the son of bram stokers famous vampire hunter. whereas the title could be a bit overblown, this action role-playing game has an endearing charm, by having well-realized setting, solid combat mechanics, as well as a terrifically cheeky sense of humor.
clearly as the son of abraham van helsing, youre asked to bring to a tiny degree of balance towards the gothic noir land of borgovia, a rendition of 19th-century eastern europe with simply a hint of steam punk. this world stands apart from those in alternative western action rpgs like torchlight or diablo in to the point it flirts with additional modern visions of classical fantasy. guns, steam, and an usually unclear boundary between science and magic will be the meat of van helsings world, and of course the consistently inventive art direction helps realize the macabre environment.
