Costume Quest 2

Let's get something out of the way, right away, just so there's no confusion.

No, you don't have to have played the original Costume Quest to get the most out of Costume Quest 2. Besides, if necessary, you can always watch the animated Amazon Prime series based on the game once it releases. I don't know exactly how much fidelity it has towards the game itself, so maybe that's not the best advice. Anyway, moving on...

Costume Quest 2 is a classic-style, turn-based combat RPG from, once again, Tim Schafer and the folks at Double Fine. You have to make the world safe to celebrate Halloween once again (from the clutches of, appropriately, an evil dentist). Different Halloween costumes give your party members different abilities, and those abilities are affected by each character's different stats. You know, like an RPG or something.

To top it all off, there's the great writing that Schafer is known for - this game is hilarious.
