It's finally here!!! Midnight surprise: the demo is here! Today marks the first release of "A Vampyre Story" in it's first territory. To mark the occassion, we are proud to release the official demo, to allow everyone to get a sneak peek of the game. In the demo, Mona and Froderick are in trouble: They are on the Vlad's Landing Graveyard and Picknick Grounds, looking for Mona's grave, in order to retreive some grave dirt that Mona needs to put in her coffin for travelling. This short slice of the game gives a short glimpse of how versatile and multi-faceted the puzzles can be - as well as presenting the athmospheric art and music and humor, of course! The demo features English and German language. The game will be released on the 24th in the UK and soon in the US and on any decent download retail service, like GameTap, metaboli and GamersGate. You can download the demo HERE You can also click on the German flag in the tree to get to a list of Mirrors.

 I looked at a lot of rewievs(five different) on german adv sites and they all rated it 9/10, ok one of them gave it 8/10  . Though I know that a rewiev does not always  share my opinion, never the less IT SURE LOOKS GREAT.

Just finished the demo twice. What a beautiful and fun game. Did anyone else try talking to everything. I got a few funny lines when doing so. Also did anyone else talk to Froderick from the inventiory/coffin? You can learn a little about the their background. I loved the demo can't wait for the full game. Cathy

Does this demo work on Vista 32? I hope this game works on Vista 32 because I preordered it from Dave along time ago. EDIT........................................ update, I downloaded the game easily and quickly WOW what a great server they have. For those who want to know the answer to my own question, I am finding the game plays beautiful on Vista 32 home premium with a Nivida 8800 GT video card. However I have one major complaint that I am going to have to overlook somehow since I really want to play the game. Mona's voice is the worst voice I have ever heard! The false high pitched voice sounds like a man trying to imitate a woman's voice. To me it is like a nail scratching a chalkboard! So whoever complained about the voice I am in complete agreement with you. Whoever chose this voice sorry but I don't know what you were thinking. This makes me want to put a stake in Mona's heart or drown her in that bucket of water the demo starts out with. Or bury her in the graveyard dirt we are suppose to find.  Ok back to trying to endure the nail on the chalkboard voice. Sherryah EDIT........................... By the time the demo was over Mona's voice no longer sounded like a finger nail scratching on a chalkboard, I learned to like it. The sense of humor in the game is delightful and the graphics also. I really look forward to the release of the full version and glad I pre ordered it. Thanks to Bernard he helped me get unstuck because I didn't know just to click on the item and use it. I was right clicking on the inventory stuff. Duh feel so stupid, but if it helps one person it was worth it.

while I was playing the demo it started to stick in the scene where she and Fredric are at her grave. Can you imagine Mona talking to Fredrick and all you get is Fre,Fre,Fre, Fre, and then I would hit the computer or it would unstick itself and I would get Mon, Mon, Mon, Mon, or die, die, die, die and the no, no, no, no. It almost got to be very comical for a few minutes untill the program decided to shut itself down or the demo ran itself out.

I just played the demo. I suppose that if I try hard I can find a thing or two I wasn't crazy about, but all I'm going to say is that I will definitely buy this game as I am certain that I will enjoy it. It's just so...
