It's Halloween, and this is a game where (I think) you control a ghost or a blue ball. The game is fun, it's not as scary as it's name but it's a nice game. Here we go then:

Presentation:

It has a nice presentaiton at the begining the witch thingy accidentally making lots of monsters is funnny. But the selections and the simplicity of the menu isn't good. Not much to select from the menu except for a new game and sound test. Dunno why you put a sound test Could have made it a scarier looking halloween looking menu with ghost warping around the screen maybe, but that's just a tip. Anyway it's above the standards as the selections appear one by one. Which is a nice effect. Let's skip on to gameplay then.

Gameplay:

The game is a side-scrolling/top view kind of game. I really like these games only if they have no control problems like crashing into simple dots or lack of proper controlling. Unfortuanetly I found it hard to control cause the monster you controlled sometimes got stuck on simple places and was hard to get through from the bad monsters and they could even trap you when the A.I changes its mood. The Gameplay should be fixed a little. It gives me a pac-man feel when I play this game but the A.I isn't really good. A tip I can give you is that instead of making every background an obstacle, make invisible active thin lines and make them obstacles not the backdrops. This could be one solution maybe, for the A.I and the controls. Ok then let's talk about the Graphics.

Graphics:

I liked the gfx even though they were a bit simple and not much special stuff was included, it is pretty good. Maybe if you had used some lighting effects in the game it would have given it a scarier type of look, and be more Halloweenish(). Not much to say about the gfx but if you do happen to make a remake of this game please put in first place the gfx and the A.I. Here comes the sfx part.

Sound and Music:

The most thing I liked about the sfx where they were original. None ripped from another game. This make the game get a lot of points when doing a review in my case. The sfx where not much except for the sfx in the menu. I didn't hear much sfx in the game, only musics. But I must say that they are quality musics. It passed, and last of all the lastability.

Lastability:

The game is a Halloween game, it is especially fun to play these kinds of game when it's Halloween. But if it is summer and the sun is shining and the birds are singing, then you might get a little bored. No bloods, or guns where included as I seen(I didn't play till the last level so I don't know), so it is suitable to every age, I really would recommend this game, but the minor problems I mentioned should be fixed as soon as possible.


Overall:

Well I wrote a lot and gave 7 out of 10 to this game as you can see, this is a quality game. So come on play this game for gods sake!(jkng)
