Sunlight! Crosses! Garlic! These are all things vampires Do Not Want. I’ve learned this from reading the finest of literature, my friends. Oh, and another thing vampires don’t like? Your face.

Bloodmasque is due out “this summer" across iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch. It’s also at E3 this week, so we’ll definitely be grabbing you more details in the future.
