Mario is trapped and luigi has to save him. Wait what Luigi gets his own game but not a hot girl to save. Wheres daisy?
Gameplay: Luigi goes room to room fighting hoards of ghosts (only a few) that will come at him, like a beat em up where you have to beat them all to continue. You flash the flashlight on them and suck them up with the Poltergust 3000. When you are sucking them up you have to smash the C stick like crazy and pull the left analog stick in the opposite direction of the ghost. After you beat the room the lights go on and there a key will appear or you find it in the room then you go to the next room. Half way into the game boos will appear in rooms you have beaten, the boos are easy but when they get away into another room sometimes they go into a hall way that you have to walk two minutes to get to and then right when they see you go back into the other room is a real problem sometimes, sometimes they just disappear by glitch too. There are 23 bosses, most have something you have to do to get them to be suckable to get the flashlight to work, like sucking them when they are hit by a punching bag. The Poltergust 3000 also expells elements on elemental ghost and non elemental ghosts. You get the elements by sucking fire, water, or ice into the machine and expell with L trigger. The games has a health bar for luigi that when low cause him to scream for mario in a more scared voice when you tap the A button which is neat too.
Graphics: It looks wonderfully cartoony, everything that the flashlight hits gets a very realistic shadow effect and the boss ghosts have a lot of character put in them. Great graphics for the time Final thoughts:
There are a few problems with this game: 5 hours long, the hammering on the c stick breaks your controller, there is not an ending where mario finally says "luigi you are no longer in my shadow", maybe a little scary for little kids and some of the puzzles are hard to figure out.
The game is still enjoyable and is worth 10 dollars and maybe 15t, I paid 5 dolars for it and thought that was a bargain. So buy this game and help Luigi get out of mario's shadow for once
