Pros

  • Unique premise (Halloween)
  • Story and style are fun and whimsical
  • Gameplay is solid, if a little simple
  • Length isn't too long, doesn't overstay it's welcome for the simplistic gameplay to become tedious
  • Game isn't grindy, pretty easy to get max level and buy everything
  • Easy trophies if you're into that

Cons

  • Costumes not unique enough in usage, not many reasons to use all costumes or change often
  • Hardcorn trophy is interesting, but not super fun. Just have a useless party member for most of the game

Conclusion and who is this for

Costume Quest 2 is a fun little game. Tim Schaefer's style is unique and a nice break from the many serious games out there. Its turn-based battles stay light and approachable throughout the short campaign (even when going for Hardcorned Mode trophy), while the steady drip of new costumes/creepy cards gives a good sense of progression. If you want a cozy Halloween adventure or an accessible turn-based RPG with quirky storytelling, this is an easy recommendation.
