Spine-Tingling Tale Swoops into Action This Halloween
Swedish indie-publisher Legendo
Entertainment today announced that its spine-tingling casual action title for
the PC, Dracula Twins, has gone gold and is being distributed through online and
retail channels in time for Halloween 2006 and beyond.
Dracula Twins will be available for
online purchase beginning the week of October 21st on major games portals
including BigFishGames.com, BigFishGames.de, Codemasters’ funsta.com,
trygames.com, and Reflexive Arcade’s reflexive.net. In addition, the game will
also be available at legendo.com.
The downloadable version is
multi-lingual and includes English, German, French, Spanish, Italian, Swedish,
Danish, Norwegian, and Finnish languages. The trial version offers players a
free-play period that allows access to the entire game. Once time’s up on the
trial period, you can continue to play the game for a one-off payment of 9.99

In addition, the game will be

“This cross-territorial online and
retail rollout of Dracula Twins is utterly unique," said Bjorn Larsson, CEO
Legendo Entertainment. "It just goes to show that traditional and digital
distribution models can co-exist and complement one another nicely, especially
in the case of high-quality, family-friendly and cost-affordable PC games."
