    I am a huge fan of Double Fine ever since Psychonauts and this game has all the charm and witty dialogue of a good Double Fine game.

    Costume Quest is a fun game that will make a lot of people happy with its simplistic style and its witty conversations. The only downside of this game is the lack of variety.

    Despite all the the good premises, this last game from Tim Schafer proves to be a small project with short and repetitive gameplay.

    From the first moment that Custom Quest takes us to a world that we love meeting.
