Slash and survive a typical workday as Dracula’s overworked and underappreciated servant! You’ll have a bloody good time as you rampage through New Orleans to find fresh victims for your narcissistic boss.

RPG Gamers summary

Renfield: Bring Your Own Blood offers players a new take on the roguelite adventure genre, drawing its players into a world of vampire lore deeply influenced by Universal Pictures’ interpretation of Dracula. The player is tasked with the unenviable job of serving Dracula, the notoriously hard-to-please immortal, whose demands are as unpredictable as they are relentless.

The single-player campaign conveniently integrates one-touch gameplay with rapid, room-based action sequences. Players navigate a variety of challenging levels, each posing its own set of unique enemies and bosses. Survival, in this case, necessitates a brutal tour-de-force of insect-fueled destruction, showing the players the alternating highs and lows of serving the most prestigious yet demanding overlord in vampiric history.

One of the game’s central hooks lies in its combat. As the player, you will engage in action-packed battles against swarms of terrifying yet whimsically designed enemies and bosses, inspired by the iconic Universal Pictures film. In a display of dazzling visual artistry, death and resurrection serve as routine elements of the job.

The game unfurls across a pixelated version of New Orleans, lush with intricate environmental details, valuable collectibles, and dynamic branching paths. The decisions made by the player in these locales can dramatically influence their upward mobility or push them toward the precipice of eternal unemployment.

The progression system in Renfield: Bring Your Own Blood is structured to reward the overworked lackey, allowing players to upgrade their arsenal of weapons and perfect their pest-powered skills to eventually become Dracula’s most competent and crucial employee. The developers promise an ongoing stream of new content, including gear and challenges, maintaining a refreshing angle to gameplay.
