A true gaming classic!July 9, 2001 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
This is one of the most fun, innovative, and challenging interactive videos (a snazy way to say 'video game) I have ever played! In this game you play an angst-filled teenage 'dude' who is kinda a cross between a punk-wannabe and a surfer guy from Cali. He was killed by his skate board breaking. He finds the guy who owns the company who made it and decides to scare his whole family out of their wits! Sounds fun? YOU BET! Very innovative game! You control a large majority of how the family members are scared. It is very free, you don't have to scare each family member in any order! (Though I'd recomend saving the girl for last...she's hard to scare.). Even though game play may seem redundant (you go through 3 or 4 houses before you get to the end of the game, I personal never could beat it!) it's fun to see the character's reactions to your hijinks. Who knew how much fun it could be to play a poltergiest? Electronic Arts sure knew! ;)
