That game was a pleasurable and relaxing adventure. My kid loved it too. I’d definitely recommend it to gamer parents. ❤️

A great quirky RPG. Not terribly deep mechanics, but enough there to get you to the end of a fun story. The game lives on that story, so if you don't want to be kids, pretending to fight monsters with the power of your Halloween costume, this won't work for you.

Probably one of the best games you could play during Halloween month. Is just simple yet fun and extremely soulful. The credits of the game are pics of the developers as kids wearing their Halloween costumes- that's a kind of fun you don't see in games a whole lot.

A solid little holiday adventure from Double Fine. The combat can get a little tedious after a while but the art style and charm more than make up for it. It's short and sweet, much like Halloween itself.

Hello friends, Today I will review the game Costume Quest. This game is quite old now, and I personally was not even sure it would work on my newer windows 11 operating system and pc, but it worked fine. In fact I had no issues with this game, and even the controller, which was a switch controller, worked fine. Actually, this game was more bug free than some newer games I have played recently. This game revolves around kids on Halloween getting kidnapped by monsters. The player can choose to either play as a male or female child and run around collecting candy from neighborhoods while on the quest to save their brother or sister from the monsters. The kids in the game can utilize their Halloween costumes to become overpowered creatures to fight the monsters. There are also collectibles in the game the players can find, and even special cards to collect, and various quests to complete for rewards. The game itself plays like a rpg with turns like the older final fantasy games. In this version, the DLC, Grubbins on Ice, is included. Just make sure to play Grubbins on ice only after beating the main game. Having played this game originally on xbox 360 from the xbox store, I must say it was fun to play this again, and I really want to play the second part again. Perhaps after this review, I will. Anyways, here is my PROS and CONS: PROS: - A great game to play around Haloween season. In fact one of the few games that is Halloween themed and for children to enjoy playing. - Cartoony graphics and rpg mechanics. - Side quests, and collectibles to find. - Some costume powers on the overworld allows more locations to be explored. - This game worked fine on my Windows 11 Operating System. - The game worked fine with my controller and it worked fine. I would recommend using a controller with this game if possible. CONS: - Some newer controllers may not be recognized by the game, and may show the old button configurations for older type of controllers used on it. - The artistic style may not be liked by everyone who plays it, considering it is cartoony. - The game is quite short, even with the added dlc, Grubbins on Ice. Do I recommend it? Yes. There is even a sequel on steam, Costume Quest 2. In fact, some people liked the game series so much, alot of fans want a Costume Quest 3. Sadly, it appears the developers have moved on to different IP's and projects. The game is great for children to play, especially around the Halloween season, or any time of year since it is such a fun game to play. If you did enjoy this game, consider getting the second game, called Costume Quest 2 to support the developers of this game. https://store.steampowered.com/app/275180/Costume_Quest_2/
