After a long night of haunting and spooking, there's nothing that your average vampire/mummy/witch likes more than going home to the comfort of their own coffin/sarcophagus/cauldron. Wouldn't ya know it though? It seems that some sort of anti-monster conspiracy has constructed all manner of girders and obstacles to prevent their homecoming. In Halloween Shooter, a physics puzzler by GameShot, it's up to the player to blast all the creatures to their proper home for a good day's sleep.
Very polished in presentation, Halloween Shooter has a cool retro aesthetic and some well-designed set pieces. The size of the game window does limit some of the shots you'd like to make, which is a flaw. Also, bits of the game do feel a little generic: one might think that the only thing needed to make Thanksgiving Shooter or Chanukah Shooter would be a change in sprites. That said, it's hard to dislike any game that lets you knock over Frankenstein with a well-aimed Dracula. It's a treat as good as a full-sized Snickers.
I dont understand why this has got such a low rating. its one of the most entertaining skill games i've seen in a while. Its difficult, but do-able!
Just as an off topic comment: I like these shorter reviews more. I mean, shorter but more direct to the point! It used to be like this a few years ago.
Nothing against long reviews, but when 20% of it is unrelated to the game in question it becomes a tiresome reading. Even when it's funny!
Is anyone else having trouble with the link? I'm on Google Chrome, and after the ad, I'm just staring at a black screen.
