sure wanted to love this one,this was a great series. the graphics were very blurry, zero storyline, and i got tired of the game, several times wanting me to decide if i wanted to use the little shrub as a helper.what little bit of storyline was laughable. sad, this could have been a great game.
wow...this was the most tedious game i have played in awhile.......just bad. same old, same old....masks to find, hos puzzles from 2005, and the very lack of ANY storyline.....just awful. i have never been a fan of the jumping back and forth between characters..this game is all of that and more...sadly, it did not work.
I don't recommend this game.

what a crying shame, this once great series is destroyed. this is by far the worst installment to date. very little story,graphics are ok, and that is about it. the HOS's are so easy, at one time, in earlier DP games, things were a challenge to find,no more, easy to the point of taking a short snooze. good luck gamers, you may want to sidestep this one.
this game was ok, you sure would not write home about it, the colors are so neon,the game play is very childish in all modes....morphing mask to find, same old, same old...........zero new or challenging....sure wanted to like this one.....
tedious to the point of coma inducing. zero storyline....zero. this is a worn out series, and this addition is proof, this series needs to be retired. playing the demo now days is no longer much help.....good luck.
played this whole series....this one is wonderful.........if you plan on playing this game..you may want to play the others first. the only problem for me was i thought it was very easy and a little too short. just great graphics, and papa ghost was and is a very important player in this series..even if he is a gravelly voiced ghost.......just a great game..i never go into who shot john on any game too much detail ruins the game.......have fun!!!!!
i am somewhat confused as to these high ratings...this was a tedious, boring game. i was hoping for more...not this game. the storyline is thin, the graphics are great. thats about it. i think maybe, they should put this series to bed for a long winter nap. same theme...evil over a princess....yawn. try the demo first.
as i never go into minute detail of any game, as i think it ruins the fun,that said,this is a wonderful game. this is a series, i have played all of them , and i don't remember the others being this good. the graphics are outstanding, with some blurring , the storyline, yes people there is a storyline, stays thru the whole game. the puzzles are great,the voice overs are dead on. this is a great game...have fun.
