Featured review
I modded my 2DS and the first game that I got was Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon. And boy oh boy I'm I glad that I played this one first. I played the first Luigi's Mansion game way back last year when I modded my Wii U (would totally recommend the first game, great play). And Dark Moon is just as good as it's Gamecube predecessor. First off, the gameplay. Its almost completely identical to the first game. The only difference is the don't have a second joystick like you do on the Gamecube where you're able to point and suck. To be honest, I didn't even notice this change until i watched a review pointing it out. The way that it works in Dark Moon that that you're able to point and suck in one direction, but you're able only to move from side-to-side, making little angle adjustments as you move. But other then that, again, just like the first game. You have your flashlight for stunning ghosts, you can thowmp em around, and you suck em in to your Poltergeist 5000. But they added a new feature: The Blacklight. You basically use it to make invisible objects and ghosts visible. It used quite a bit when solving the puzzles in this game actually. Which leads me to an issue... so meny times I was stuck on a room not able to figure out how to get through a door or something. I'd have to look up a guide and it'll say that I missed something invisible way back two rooms ago that I needed for the room that I was on. I get the secret collectibles, but this? I ain't feelin' Nintendo. But it wasn't that big of a thorn in my side to not like this game. Tell you what, I'll right a wrong with a right, yeah? For those of you who don't know, everytime you beat a ghost, it drops money. And after ever level, it sums up all the money you've collected. And when you've collected enough money, you can earn upgrades for your Poltergeist 5000. Its is a much welcomed improvement from the first game, because in the first game, the money you got did really do anything other then a point tally at the very end of the game. A little on the level/building design. Different from the first game, you actually go and explore a bunch of different mansions (in the first game, you only had the one). I thought that this was very nice because it gives you a little more variety from haunted ghost towns in the wild west to a haunted log cabin in the snow. Now on to the story. Continuing off the ending of the first game, Professor E. Gadd has been studying ghosts in his lab. The ghosts are very nice and willing to be studied. But the disaster strikes when King Boo destroys the Dark Moon. By doing so, he's able to make all the nice ghosts hostile. E. Gadd has to retreat to his lab/bunker. What is there to do but abduct Luigi out of his home through his TV? He was literally just minding his own business watching TV xD. He then has to, against his will, collect the Dark Moon fragments to calm the ghosts. Luigi is just the life of this game. Him bumbling around like a buffoon not really knowing what he's doing but doing anyways is what makes this game so good. Nothing really to say about the music, it was ok. But in conclusion, I'd like to say that this is a very good game that I'd totally recommend. Not exactly a spooky, scary game... more like spoopy. You can totally play this game without play the fist one, but I'd recommend you play it first. Overall, 8/10. Will definitely pick up Luigi's Mansion 3 sometime later.
