About the Game

The Count is Down for Blood is a gothic puzzle game about a vampire trying to survive the last moments of the night.

Each level is a compact grid-based puzzle where every action matters. Move, drink blood, use supernatural powers, avoid hunters, ghosts and deadly traps, and reach your coffin before the countdown reaches zero.

There is no traditional tutorial. New rules, enemies and mechanics are introduced directly through the levels, letting you learn by experimenting, failing, undoing, and slowly mastering the logic of the night.

Count Your Moves

The sun is rising. Every action reduces the countdown.

You must carefully plan your route, decide when to drink blood, when to use your powers, and when to risk one more move. Reach your coffin with enough blood before the night ends, or Dracula burns in the morning light.

Blood Is Your Resource

Blood is not just your life force. It is also your tool.

Drain humans to gain blood, then spend it to use powerful vampire abilities. Transform into a bat, pull victims toward you, or mark a location and teleport back later. Each power opens new puzzle possibilities, but wasting blood can leave you trapped.

Learn Through Levels

The game does not stop to explain everything with text boxes.

Instead, each chapter teaches its mechanics through carefully built puzzle levels. Early levels introduce ideas simply, while later levels combine mechanics into more demanding challenges.

Some levels are optional and harder, rewarding players who want to fully master each chapter.
