Is it still worth playing?
Ten monsters fight in one on one matches, among them the vampire Demitri and the werewolf Jon Talbain, in this 1994 Capcom fighting game that reached the PlayStation in 1996. In single player you fight the other nine and then the two bosses, the robot Huitzil and the alien Pyron. It uses the system Capcom built for Street Fighter II, with new features such as air blocking, crouch walking and chain combos. A special meter fills as you fight and drains on its own unless you use a super move, so supers cannot be saved for later. Characters often vanish and reappear elsewhere during special moves, which gives them odd ways to move and dodge. The whole cast is built around creatures from horror films. A super meter that drains if you hold it still pushes every fight toward spending it.
