I first tried the demo for this game on my 360 and fell in love with the gameplay and story. Saw it for $3 on here an couldnt resist. Its almost got a pokemon feel to it, in the sense that you go around collecting different costumes, which give you different powers to fight the bad guys. The fighting is turned-based and here it seems to take alot from Final Fantasy games, having different moves to choose from along with powerup moves which unlock after some time in combat.
If you're looking for a fun game, with engaging gameplay and a fun storyline, you definitely can't go wrong with this buy, which also includes the Ice Grubbins DLC which you would have to purchase seperately if you bought this on Xbox 360 so thats a plus!
This game was very cute. The dialogue was very funny. There is no voice acting, just captions at the bottom of the screen. What really turned me off to the game is that when you run into one of the bad guys you have to have a little duel with him and once you beat him you can continue the game. There are sooo many of the bad guys that you start having to duel them every 5 minutes and I just didn't enjoy that part. I wish there was a skip button but there is not. I stopped playing. This would be good for little kids that don't mind the repetative nature of the game but it just wasn't for me.
Costume Quest is a very, very silly game. But it's also one of the funniest and most imaginative games I have played in a long time. Halloween is here, and monsters are taking all the candy from your neighborhood. Unfortunately for them, they forgot to do their research and they end up on the wrong end of your ability to turn into a monster based on your costume. In battle, you turn into a bigger, badder version of your costume: going from a kid in a cardboard robot costume to a Gundam-Style rocket-punching robot. It plays like a simple turn-based RPG, and while the battles can occasionally draw on a bit, they are as cinematic as turn-based RPGs get outside of the Final Fantasy series. If you find this game on sale, don't hesitate to buy it!
This is really a great game for the younger audience. And even for the older folks who want a relaxing game to play. Gameplay was a little more than 8 hours for me and I couldn't be happier. The only drawback would be the repetitive gameplay but I think thats for the younger audience. Pick this game up and you won't be disappointed.
This is an excellent game that I really enjoyed playing. The "transform" animations are awesome, the concept is fun and different, and the game play is easy to follow, even for non-gamers or small children. That said, it's a little too easy and repetitive. By the end, I was ready for it to end. This is not a game with any replay value either. In the end, I do recommend this game for anyone with kids or who just wants a fun time waster for the odd hours at home.
This game is great! It gives me flashbacks to going out trick or treating when I was a kid. Back then, kids would roam the neighborhood freely! These days, with all the safety concerns, traditional trick or treating is going by the way side.
I brought this title for my daughter (she is six), and she fell in love with it immediately. This is a game we played together and both enjoyed. The gameplay is on the easy side, yet it remains fun. The story is up to DoubleFine's usual humor, though the plot is extremely basic - however that is more than made up for by the cute characters and their relationships with each other.
The only reason I didn't give this game 5 stars is because it is a little on the short side.
