Costume Quest is a rollicking Adventure/Role-Playing game that unfolds on Halloween night across seemingly peaceful suburban neighborhoods, a mysterious village carnival, and a monster-infested shopping mall. Created by Double Fine’s lead animator, Tasha Harris, the game follows the adventure of a group of young friends who must rid their neighborhood of monsters using only their wits, their bravery, and their home-made costumes. Players go door-to-door collecting candy, points, cards, battle stamps and quest assignments as they prepare themselves for Combat Mode-where they transform into larger-than-life versions of their costumes. Each costume that comes-to-life provides its own unique set of superpowers that players will need to battle Halloweens worst monsters.

Costume Quest was so much fun. It was hilarious. This kid has to rescue his sister/brother depending on what gender you choose. And you get friends to help you defeat all the monsters who take candy. And you go door to door and get candy from the people. And the animation for getting candy is crazy. Just boat loads of candy dumped into your candy bag. It feels so great knowing that I got 10,000 pieces of candy. The story behind it all is great too. Lots of fun and interesting things that make this the perfect Halloween game.
The combat was neat too. It was turn based but it was good. When you are in a costume you turn into the real thing when you battle. It’s so neat. And they have some pretty wacky costumes as well as traditional monster costumes as well.
Graphics and sound were good. There is no talking. Just reading text. Which at the beginning doesn’t let you read at your own pace. It shows you words that you have to rush and read which I don’t like. Graphics were cartoons so you can’t complain about not looking real. But it still was great. Nice detail and design.
Conclusion: Overall, Costume Quest is a great game. I enjoyed playing it. It’s the best Halloween game.
