Monster High New Ghoul In School

SCORE: 75

I am thankful Family Friendly Gaming was provided a reviewable copy of Monster High New Ghoul In School on the Wii U. This game comes in the physical copy format that is still what the majority of the industry purchases, and the less sought after digital download version. The digital download version takes up 1.5 gigs of space on the hard drive, and takes some time to download. Then there are Internet usage charges that also have to be paid on the digital download.

Monster High New Ghoul In School is huge. The school in Monster High New Ghoul In School is insanely large. Thankfully the game offers an arrow to point the player where to go next. If you need to search for items in an area the R button pops up on the screen letting the player know the radar is available. A lot of what we do in Monster High New Ghoul In School is to help others out.

I was not familiar with the Monster High franchise. Think of Barbie and Ken, but done in monster versions. So Frankenstein, Dracula, Werewolves, Ghosts, Fairies, Ghouls, Zombies, and more. The monsters in Monster High New Ghoul In School are all friendly, and in need of assistance. Players help all these different clubs with all these different chores. I kept wondering why these club presidents were so unprepared all the time. If I was not there to run across the school to find some cogs, how would you get them?

The theme song is a nice touch in Monster High New Ghoul In School. It blurs the line between movie/television show to video game. The rest of the music in Monster High New Ghoul In School ranges. Some is good, and some is creepy. There is voice acting in some conversations, and not in others. I never did learn why it was not always there. Maybe I spammed a button too much at the start of the conversation.

A basic reading ability would be good to play Monster High New Ghoul In School. However it is not needed since the arrow will point the way. There is some spelling required to play Monster High New Ghoul In School as well as cognitive thought. There are some interesting mini games in Monster High New Ghoul In School. A few took me a bit to figure out how to play them since directions were not provided.

I enjoyed solving riddles in Monster High New Ghoul In School. Monster High New Ghoul In School does a good job targeting girls. The goal of serving and helping others is predominate in Monster High New Ghoul In School. The cel shaded graphics did not do much for me personally. I did like meeting new characters, and seeing how large the school is in Monster High New Ghoul In School.
