THE VAMPIRE DIARIES

Walkthrough by Crash

The story is about vampires that stalking the city of Fells Church, Virginia. You play as Elena. a local girl who had come home
from Europe to stay with her aunt and sister. Dialogue holds an important role in this game. Choosing wrong answer may stucks
you for a long time without knowing what to do next. Actually in almost every dialogue, there's one combination that can give
you an access for every answering option. The graphics and the background sounds are quite good. And I think the level
difficulty of this game is moderate. So DON'T continue reading if you don't want to spoil your game..
