General Commentary and Game Overview
After playing this game, I still shake my head in disappointment.

So basically you take a pre - made 3D engine, put Luigi's Mansion textures in there, add a hud, and boos that you can't attack.

Really, that's what this game is, but a addition to items and more rooms to that pre made engine.

So this is first person(Weird, Luigi's Mansion was third person, and all Nintendo's 3D Mario games were like that. Why change it now?)
yeah, I just described the whole game.
This is a highscore game. What???????? That's the stupidest replay value cliche I've ever heard of!!!!
Why!!!! You could at least of added the flashlight and the Poltergust 3000 so you can suck up those boos.
In every game by KoopaKingdom, there's no windowed mode. That's a problem. The resized mess hurts my eyes this big.
Please, add a windowed option to your games!

To the pros.
 
Pros +3D, but it needs to be in a 3rd person perspective.
 
Cons - Boring, and not scary
- Ugly hud
- Stupidest replay value cliche
- Needs to be 3rd person, why would you make it first person? All Nintendo's 3D Mario and Luigi games are 3rd person, I think.
- Poltergust 3000 and flashlight seems to be missing
- Very short
- No Windowed mode
 
Impressions
Gameplay
2 / 10
*sigh* Here it is, the gameplay.

Well basically, you go around collecting items to increase your score, as well as opening doors to find more rooms. I once found a room that has a lot of bottles that do nothing, and that was a face palm right there. Pointless rooms are very annoying. Stop it. The door has no door opening animation so it seems like you go right through it, which seems really weird. There's no Poltergust 3000 and flashlight, so boos are unkillable. This game is not scary at all.

If you die, a highscore table pops up. THAT HAS TO BE THE STUPIDIST REPLAY VALUE TRICK YET ON MFGG!
Also, there's no windowed mode.

That's everything Gameplay wise.
 
Graphics
1 / 10
Terrible. Although it has Luigi's Mansion textures, it looks terrible with the game. The HUD looks like an abomination. The 8 bit icons clash with everything else.

There's no windowed mode, so the clashing ugly graphics have to be resized, therefore burning my eyes.

The boo looks out of place, also clashing with everything else.

Due to the clashing of everything, this receives a 1/10.
 
Sound
4 / 10
Nothing really, except for a door sound effect, a horror music, to make it more horrifying, and stuff like that. Lack of sound effects scores this a 4/10.
 
Replay
1 / 10
The stupidest replay cliche was used here, and that's high score table. This links to gameplay as well, but it's really dumb.
 
Final Words
2 / 10
Another bad game by KoopaKingdom. Don't play it.

When I said stupidest replay cliche, I meant that it does not work in this game style, not that it's bad in general.
