Vampire, defend your castle while racing to avoid each day's sun as it streams through windows before the summer solstice.
Each level, avoid or dash through the sun-shafts and make it down to the next floor for the next day. Eventually make it to the safety of your coffin before agony of days of sunlight of the summer solstice.
