Captain Bread-Leg and his gang of buccaneers have landed on an island which houses a mysterious castle. After raiding the castle and all of its treasures, they yonder off... but it turns out Bread-Leg has been bitten by a vampire bat!

After word gets around the ship of Bread-Leg's predicament, a mutiny is lead by none other than Lieutenant Ladders - who casts Bread-Leg to a deserted island and sends his new crew to kill him off... they'll never know what's coming to get them!




Vampirate is a top-down shooter, where you play as Captain Bread-Leg - a mutinied pirate, exiled from his crew after discovering his vampirical nature. You must survive the level, keeping your revenge-induced Rage above zero. Your Rage drops as you take damage from sunlight, but Rage is fuelled by the spilt blood of your traitorous crew. Equip Bread-Leg's trusty flintlock pistol and other vampiric abilities to aid your quest!
