Fun, but maybe not for video game beginners January 14, 2008

This game is really fun and very challenging, but even choosing the easiest difficulty level can lead to a lot of frustration if you can't figure out the technique that is required to finish a level (the book-walking in the conservatory is just one example that had our 12-year-old frustrated to tears; I am fairly computer-savvy and this challenge--even at the easiest difficulty setting--took me about an hour). If you are not a video game pro, plan on investing a lot of time and patience ~ but you will be rewarded by your accomplishments! (and maybe think about looking up some cheats online when you are ready to quit altogether!)
 Thank you for a great game September 28, 2005

Wonderful. You explore the rooms in a mansion. Each room has an action-oriented puzzle that you must solve before you can move to the next room. Seems like the difficulty of the puzzles was tweaked just right, where they were not too hard or too easy. I also appreciate that the boss enemy at the end was easy to defeat...because I absolutely hate bosses! They destroy the flow of the game for me. The graphics were pretty. Just wish I could have gone on and on, exploring many more rooms with interesting puzzles. I wish I could go into a store and find good games like Haunted Mansion all the time.
Spooky! September 25, 2005

This is a great game for people who are good with puzzeles and examining tiny details. The average gamer- kid or adult- would probobly have the same difficulty with it as anybody else. Can be a bit spooky at times; not reccomended for kids 6 and under.
Rent first- you too could be trapped in the mansion!
Bwah Ha Ha! :)
Great, but not perfect... August 6, 2005

This is a good game. I reccomend buying it. The female ghost that comes up to you and screams in your face really loud is very scary if the volume on the T.V. is up high. She scared the hell out of my brother! I don't play it very much anymore, since I don't know how to beat the museum. Turning the pictures from bad to good is the last and hardest task in the game. The rooms I had a blast in were the Maids Room, Ballroom, Attic, Mausoleium (misspelled, I know,) Kitchen, and the Toy Room. Really good cheats if you beat the game! Enjoy!

Okay, the first thing you should do is to forget whatever the plot line is in the movie ofwhich this game is based on. Why? The only thing that actually connect the movie to this game is Madame Leota (the fortune teller head in the magic bowl), spiders (lots of spiders), the ghosts, the animated heads, and of course the haunted mansion itself.
You won't be finding Eddie Murphy's character and his family in this game. Instead, you'd be controlling a character named Zeke Hollowayl, a poor lad who was mislead by a vacancy advertisement in the papers looking for a Assistant Caretaker for the mansion. Yes, he has been had.
This game is all about solving puzzles without succumbing to the movie it is base of. In fact, I found it much more entertaining than the movie itself ^_^" There are friendly ghosts and bad ghosts in this game and you be praying not to run into any of the bad ones, but of course you have to, right? Spiders in this game are also your foe but nasty to shoot at. The Lock-on button just won't lock on right for me half of the time, and got myself bitten in almost every time I ran on them.
The graphics are amazing. The plots and assignments are mostly easy though it uses much of problem solving and control taping skills. It is enjoyable by any age - though kids could be scared by some of the scenes. The length of game play can last up to 23 hrs or more, depend on your skills.
