Romancelvania is a hybrid of a platform game and a dating sim. The player, as a vampire, explores maps full of enemies and traps, while developing romances with NPCs, which helps him increase his skills.
Romancelvania is a 2.5D platform game with dating sim elements. The game was developed by The Deep End Games studio, the authors of Perception.
It is set in the style of a romantic comedy. The plot tells the story of a handsome vampire named Drac, who has spent the last hundred years in depression after a love disappointment, losing much of his former strength.
One day Death decides to engage the bloodsucker in his reality show, in which Drac will have to find a new chosen one (or chosen one) among the monsters living in Transylvania.
Romancelvania is a 2.5D platform game, which means the graphics is made in 3D, but the gameplay takes place in two dimensions. While playing, we traverse maps, avoid traps, collect items and fight enemies, including numerous bosses.
To this, elements of romance simulation have been added. During expeditions through Transylvania, the player will encounter 12 characters with whom he can start dating. The development of these relationships takes place through conversations, mini-games and the tightening of ties as we explore the world (e.g. by finding attractive places for a rendezvous), which not only advances the plot, but also affects the development of our hero's abilities.
All this romance is organized in the form of a TV show, where dramatic moments and sudden twists are given a premium. So the player is free to break up with his partners and seek the favor of others to please the audience and help himself to develop the hero.
The production has only a single-player mode.
Romancelvania features eye-pleasing 3D graphics made in a humorous cartoon style.

Game Ratings for Romancelvania Video Game.
PC Invasion: 4 / 10 by Andrew Farrell
Regardless of the strong art direction, voice acting, and dialogue, Romancelvania can't overcome its failings in most other aspects regarding gameplay.
ZTGD: 5 / 10 by Terrence Johnson
I can see what this team was going for with this game, but sadly Romancelvania is a jack of all trades but master of none. If this was a straight up visual novel, I think the experience would have been richer, but with the lackluster combat, wonkiness of controlling Drac themselves and the last few contestants just feeling like they were thrown in the mix; I come away wishing for better for this game. It’s not a horrible game, but its not really a good one either, if you want to experience it for the laughs just know that it will come with the tears of having to deal with the combat.
DualShockers: 6.5 / 10 by Elijah Beahm
Romancelvania is a great visual novel trapped inside a Metroidvania that bites off more than it can chew. Dualshockers was provided with a copy of the game for review purposes.
