Sanguine 3

Sanguine 3 is a side scrolling platformer where you play as the blood sucking vampire, Eleanor. Stalk and abduct humans for health and speed, but avoid detection or you'll be shot to shreds! Trek your way through the underworld, slaying legions of monsters to get your revenge on the lich, Drauthu and usurp his throne.

Each playthrough takes the player though 7 of it's 15 stages and alternate routes that are navigated on the overworld map, encouraging replayability. Discover the secret keys to unlock the gates for access to much more challenging levels.

In addition to blood, the player can also absorb slime on the blood bar. Slime does block damage, but it also blocks the acquisition of fresh blood. Taking damage removes the slime and the blood, but beware, as the slime will reform into creepy critters that may slime you again!

If the game proves too difficult, the cheat menu on the title screen allows for varying degrees of power. From blood stealing attacks to low gravity and invicibility, any challenge can be retailored to match the player's own ability.
