This game had a great story line, if a little sad, and the graphics and features were great. I love being able to customize my settings and at the end of the game you haven't found all the secret objects, you get a second chance in the Extras section and when you finish that, you get a little fun game at the end to treasure hunt. I really like this game and I'm ready to check out the rest of the series for sure!
I recommend this game!

Wow, this game is the cutest, most fun game I've played in a long time. I've played what feels like a thousand of these type of games, but this game has such great graphics and is super fun. When I read some other reviews I wondered what was so great about it, but then I started playing it and now I keep saying "oh my gosh, that's too cute" or "that's adorable" or just cracking up at the events in the game. It's not so cutesy that it's cheesy, so no worries there. I've been surprised at other games that have a companion but they're creepy even though it's not a creepy game. Check this one out. I know this came out a while back, but I would LOVE more games like this. There are some creative touches that I haven't seen in other games which is surprising given that this came out in 2015. Feels like a fresh new game and I hope to eventually find more games like this that try to do something a little different.
I recommend this game!

I enjoyed this game, but it was WAY too short. Like the other games in this series, the graphics are very good and you want to keep playing, but I wouldn't consider this game a good value for the money unless it was about an hour longer. If you can get it on discount for a few bucks, then go for it!

I love this style of game, but I don't like it to be extremely challenging. I like to relax and want the game to be fairly easy for me to follow. I know there are many others that would enjoy a significant challenge, but that's not how I roll with my free time. That being said, I use the custom settings and crank the challenge down as far as I can and this game was just about perfect for me. It actually flew by a little too fast, even with the bonus chapter, but I would love if they made more of these, just a little longer and the story a little more involved.
I recommend this game!

I love the Halloween Chronicles series and really hope they keep making more. I don't like things too scary, and I thought this had just the right amount of spooky graphics to get me into the Halloween spirit. Just for reference, since everyone likes a little different level of scary, a game that was borderline too scary for me was from another series -
Halloween Stories, the Invitation Collector's Edition. Freaky things dropping from the ceiling, eek! That being said, it wasn't a bad game. But the Halloween Chronicles are my jam and I really enjoy them. Also, the games aren't too difficult on the Easy setting, which I appreciate. I like to kick back and not think TOO much during a game.
I recommend this game!
