"- What a pity that you're not a ghost!
- Why?
- Well, because now it will come to television artists: I have to specifically call for the ghosts. And what I'm going to say to them? "
M.-f. "Carlson is back." ... Gray sky, the Sun, cloud-capped, gray, gloomy castles, sullen citizens, warily watching the strangers. Next Revolution Wolf Man, Frankenstein's howl, the flapping of wings and cries Vampire, Dracula's laughter, grinding metal, wailing carried away in the talons of the townspeople and in the midst of all this ugliness - screwed-up a-la Clint Eastwood eyes, legs wide apart, wide-brimmed hat, cloak, automatic crossbow shooting silver arrows and an arsenal of other monstroboek under a cloak - I finally got to the "Van Helsing". Again on the screen kind of movie-comics - a worthy continuation of the League of Extraordinary Gentlemen "and potryasyayusche spectacular film" Vidocq. " Hollywood renews its call to the other world. Again mysticism, ghosts again, again dark mystery. Like all of the unknown, ghosts and demons have long attracted people. Moreover, some with head succumbed to the charm of "the best remedy against rogues," as they called Carlson - ghosts. There is even an International Association of Ghostbusters, "brings together 14 thousand members from 87 countries who go to the castles and apartments, taking pictures of dark corners and record the noises of various premises in the hope to capture something" terrible, but simpatishnoe. Such demand has led to the demons that, in addition to the classic literary characters - vampires, Frankenstein, Verovulfu - comic book brought to our already troubled world has a number of characters, monsters - a fiend, bearing as it may sound strange, your cross on the ground - to give people good (!) and be permanently alienated from society. As always, the theme, along with Hollywood, was picked up and producers of games. In his time on the PC has been quite popular Heretic and Hexen, and then began to appear even more complex and intricate game. Like fashion, "Van Helsing" and "League of Extraordinary Gentlemen", I decided to make this issue hodgepodge of the most attractive games on the topic of ghosts, demons, vampires and monsters and creatures of fantasy comic book artist, so strongly influenced the modern world of models and stereotypes. So - buuuu! Tremble!

The game is very stylish. Studio great job on the graphics - you can safely, without the artifacts and noise move in 3D space and enjoy the pictures, exhaust themselves in the spirit of comic McFarlane. Designers ZIO nicely bother recreating images and urban landscapes used in the original, even the menu and selected service eelementy games are also made in the genre of comics. Movement by the joystick and stylus. I was easier to use the joystick, although it required some training. Jumping and hitting - buttons.Here, the owners of Pocket PC Qtek device and its analogs have a hard time, because they are forced to use the buttons above the display - reconfigure the keys in the game is not available. Fighting spirit is supported by an active music and appropriate sound effects, unfortunately, somewhat monotonous.

They were even too lazy to chase after you. It's a shame chesslovo, you might think, Spawn past every day on the clock runs. Nevertheless, the game is addictive. It's not so easy to pass even the first stage on the simplest level of complexity. Your time is limited, so you need to quickly find hidden behind wooden fences or mailboxes additional seconds - without them, you'll quickly lose. Pick up a slingshot - they will add you to health (I'm still in thought - surely he eats them ?:))). Remember that on the battlefield with strong opponents is always a hidden bonuses that will help you defeat the enemy. A couple more tips: some fences in the game, you can demolish the magic blow - it needs to hold down the attack. In addition, the strike is not the front, try the side - apparently, it's disheartening the enemy. Enjoy ... As you move your character's suit, more and more cluttered with all sorts of bells and whistles - Batman did not even dream of.
