What players say
Before playing this I saw mostly negative reviews comparing it to the original and while I do prefer the original this is definitely better in just about every way. The costumes are all better across the board and while still simple the story and combat are better as well. However it IS NOT worth full price in the slightest, get it on a sale and you'll have a good time!
2 more reviews, 1 not recommended
This was a fun rpg and I really hope for a costume quest 3 or a game like it from the developers cause this is halloween fun
Alrighty, so what if we made the first game but with worse combat, slower pacing, annoying to navigate UI, and make take a chunk of the original charm of the first game. It took me about 5 hours to beat the base game of Costume Quest 1, it took me 2.5 hours to beat the first boss of Costume Quest 2. I think that says enough.
