Gameplay
The gameplay is similar to light gun shooters such as The House of the Dead.[3] Players utilize a special LED whip remote. The remote has two buttons. A top thumb button used to activate the whip, prompting players to swing the remote at the screen to damage enemies. A bottom button for the index finger is used to activate subweapons, such as knives or crosses.[3][4] Subweapons are refilled by collecting hearts (up to 25) strewn about each stage in the form of destructible candles and wooden crates.[4]
Up to two players can play the game at once. Characters in the game include a Vampire Hunter, the Lady Gunner and a Little Witch.[4]
