Quick Review : Luigi’s Mansion 3 (Switch)

You wait over fifteen years for a sequel, then within five years you have two shiny new sequels to that thing you love. That decade gave you plenty of time to replay that game and pick out exactly what made you fall in love with it. The first sequel didn’t capture the magic of the first…and unfortunately, the second sequel, Luigi’s Manion 3, doesn’t quite capture it either.

Quick Review : Luigi’s Mansion 2 (3DS)

This is a sequel I’ve been waiting almost 15 years for! Luigi’s Mansion 2 offers not just one, but five mansions to explore. Sounds good, no? The problem is that you are rarely allowed to explore them freely. In the original, you did return to E.Gadd after completing a particular area, but in this sequel each mansion is split into missions. They break down each mansion so you don’t feel as if you can explore. You are constrained.

Quick Review : Luigi’s Mansion (GameCube)
