When I created the original A Vampyre Story: A Bat’s Tale, I mixed all those things I love together. Adventure game tech has come a long way since then, and by partnering with Tag of Joy, we’re able to continue Mona and Froderick’s story with a modern gaming experience that still feels like a classic LucasArts adventure.”
