Sleep never lasts that long though, because those ghosts and ghoulies come a knocking without fail every night. You can also use Blood Shards that you grow or gain from completing quests to acquire some handy buffs that help you with food issues, like making berries restore bonus health or reducing your hunger after a night of well earned rest. Crowberries can be harvested daily outside of your farm to mitigate a bit of hunger, and by planting varied crops you can restore bonus hunger thanks to a varied diet.

Thinking long term is always important though, because gathering water from a plant of happy little raindrops and pouring it onto your wilting warriors will fill up your hunger meter too.įortunately there are ways to stop your stomach from ruling your life in Voltaire. Pretty much everything you do in the daytime costs you hunger to accomplish, so you’ll need to balance your time and make sure you’re preparing food for future days while also planting some plants that spit fire or goo to help once it’s night time. Alongside the combination of crop cultivating and tower defence, there’s also a hefty dose of RPG elements to explore as you attempt to survive night after night of pesky demons knocking on your door.įirst things first though, you’ll need to follow the advice of your uncles and clear some fields. Every day you need to use your hunger meter as wisely as possible to do some farming, and then at night you need to use your vampiric powers to help keep the baddies at bay.

The gameplay loop of Voltaire the Vegan Vampire is pretty damn compelling. You won’t survive long if you don’t start growing some defences and grub, so get ready for some farming. Dracula and the lads won’t allow this vegan diet without a fight, and every night send minions to attack Voltaire’s house and plants. With the help of his uncles Frank and Stein he’s going to try and live off the land and sustain himself with delicious plants, but it won’t be easy. Our hero Voltaire has run away from his home of bloodsucking vampires who disagree with his lifestyle choices, and gone to live in the forest. Games like Costume Quest and Luigi’s Mansion have captured that theme perfectly though, and soon Voltaire the Vegan Vampire will join them – and I’ve had chance to play a chunk of it. I love when a video game looks like something you’d see in a Halloween colouring book, but more often than not it’s either vibrant platforming in a sunny meadow or slowly walking through a dingy house. One aesthetic we simply don’t see enough in video games is that of cartoon horror.
