Been looking forward to this game for a few weeks now. Gonna be friggin' awesome.

out today, anyone buy it?

is it single player only?

 

[plasmid303]

I'm going to give the demo a shot later tonight. I'll most likely buy it anyway.

 

[Kabukiman]

Bought and downloading now. I've been really looking forward to this game. Not even gonna bother with the demo.

Going *really* slow, so it might be a while before I post impressions.

Played for about an hour and a half. If you love Halloween, get this game. It's that simple. The dialog is witty and the gameplay is reminiscent of the Mario & Luigi games on the DS and GBA, meaning rhythm/timed RPG attacks. And the graphics are *really* impressive for a budget priced download game.

You definitely get your $15 worth here. There are a ton of side quests to complete and "cards" to collect.

My *only* complaint is that all of the dialog happens via text bubbles. That, in itself, isn't so bad, what is bad is that the text bubble doesn't wait for you to press a button to move on, it proceeds on it's own. So just be prepared to read fast.

Seriously, if you love Halloween, get this game NOW. You'll have plenty to enjoy between now and the 31st.

single player?

 

[Kabukiman]

single player?

AFAIK, that's the only option. I don't think it would be very fun with two player, honestly. it's very much like the Mario & Luigi Superstar Saga games.

Loved the main game, and I'm glad I don't have to wait until next year to play some more!
