Dancing Mad Studios

The Cult of Blood is a traditional platformer-style action game where you set on an adventure to rid the land of Styria in Austria of an evil that plagues its residents. Equipped with the Spear of Destiny, defeat enemies and learn special abilities as you work toward your goal of vanquishing the blood thirsty vampire. You will be battling her minions and larger than life bosses along the way.

The Cult of Blood is a retelling of J. Sheridan LeFanu’s vampiric tale, Carmilla. However, we explore this story from the perspective of Isaia Lecardi, as we discover more about his legendary bloodline.
