  1. Again, like 'Resident Evil', 'Monster House' is not all about eviscerating hair-raising beasties. There are puzzles throughout the levels too but most are of the find-and-place-an-object-here or push-this-crate-there variety.

    Performances by the movie cast (gotta love Skull's wisdom) and this is pretty much E-rated paradise. [Sept 2006, p.59]
  3. he game offers furious water gun shooting action with great graphics and sound, but has problems with various camera angles and in-game bugs.
  4. There's room for improvement — it would have been cool to give players the option of playing as all three kids at the same time — but Monster House is a pretty solid effort that even packs in a playable version of the satirically-primitive "Thou Art Dead Dead" arcade game that appears in the movie. Now that's what we call a full house.
  5. Monster House looks good and sounds good, and combined with THQ’s attention to the film, the game has atmosphere in spades. That’s the real selling point of the title.

    Boring and not funny nor entertaining, it is just a big waste of time with boring game play and mediocre visuals that won't interest you at all!
