After the player beats level 24, the vampire hunter's face reveals that he is a vampire, evident from the fangs coming from the teeth.

Game information[edit | edit source]

The intro of the game tells that vampire hunter is on a search for Count Dracula. The vampire hunter moves one space each turn or, in some cases, jumps or climbs and dies upon any non-head contact with enemies or hazards. From the guns the vampire hunter posses, it can shoot wooden stakes to kill enemies or help it move around.

In the ending of the game, it is revealed that he is a vampire who had crossed the land, cleansing it from evil only to later turn on the inhabitants.

In remake's ending, the hunter turns into monster with the quote by Friedrich Nietsche "He who fights monsters might take care, lest he become a monster himeself."
