Fun!
I played through Costume Quest last night in one sitting, 6 hours straight. I think that is the mark of a good game. The game mechanics got pretty repetitive after awhile and started reminding me of Assassin's Creed; trick or treat at house, trade card, get costume materials, fight boss, rinse and repeat. With that said the pacing of the story and unlocks was what held me on. Even if it meant trick or treating at 16/16 houses to progress and get that next "cooooool" costume moment, it was worth it. I think this game had some more difficult parts but was developed with kids in mind. It's a lot like Toy Story, there is a bunch there for us adults to have fun with, but the core demographic is probably a 8-12 yr old audience. My wife and daughter loved it and it's really a fun game to get you feeling like a kid again around the Halloween holiday. I think it's more worth 10 dollars, so maybe wait till it drops.
P.S. there are pumpkin pale and pumpkin mask avatar awards!!
Have Fun, Happy Halloween
