    A disappointing sequel that only compounds the failures of the original, while also featuring Double Fine’s least amusing script so far.

    i love this game every year around Halloween i look for games to play and this is a perfect game to play around the Halloween season but ii love this game every year around Halloween i look for games to play and this is a perfect game to play around the Halloween season but i don't see myself playing this game after the Halloween season

    Even if I do appreciate hard and punishing games that presents tough challenges, doesn't help you a bit, and reward your efforts with mastery; I wasn't expecting Costume Quest 2 too challenge me that much when I only wanted a laid-back, relaxed play time.    … Full Review »
