Nov 5, 2018I am not typically an 8 bit platform retro guy. Got this game because it was $4.99 and needed something mindless between titles. Spent about a week with the game and was surprised - its very enjoyable. The world is fun and doesn't take itself seriously - its not unforgivingly hard and its a quick pick up and play title. I'd pick it up for the price.

Nov 21, 2018In the name of fairness, it should also be noted that Halloween Forever works like it’s supposed to. That may not sound like much, but given how many of those other wannabe-retro games have horrible controls — which, obviously, just add to the frustration level in games as hard as this one — it’s always nice to find one that doesn’t artificially increase the difficulty with floaty jumps or imprecise running. Is that enough to make Halloween Forever worth checking out? Probably not, unless you’ve got a thing for retro-platformers and a thing for Halloween. But if, for some reason, you were to compare this to every single other game of its ilk, Halloween Forever would definitely fall in the upper half of the list.
