About This Game

A visually enhanced HD remaster of Luigi's 2013 sequel where players control Luigi as he explores multiple haunted mansions, solves light puzzles, and captures cartoonish ghosts using the Poltergust vacuum. The tone is spooky-but-family-friendly with humorous moments and cooperative ScareScraper multiplayer for up to four players. (Switch release and details per Nintendo.)

Negatives

  • •Mission-based structure (original design) can force longer uninterrupted sessions and require restarting failed missions
  • •Sells at full price as a remaster and lists in-game purchases
  • •Online matches may pair players with strangers and the game relies on limited in-game emotes / external voice chat solutions rather than built-in voice, which can frustrate communication.

Positives

  • •Charming, family-friendly spooky tone that emphasizes puzzle-solving and exploration
  • •Includes cooperative online and local ScareScraper mode for up to four players, encouraging teamwork
  • •HD visuals and updated controls make the older design more accessible on Switch.

Age Recommendations

ℹ️Ages 3-5
Not recommended as a solo experience for most 3–5 year olds—game mechanics (vacuuming, timing, mission restarts) and mild spooky imagery may be confusing or briefly frightening. Co-play with an adult can make it safe and fun for very young fans.
ℹ️Ages 6-8
Generally OK with parental guidance. Younger children may be startled by ghosts or boss moments; play with a parent to explain puzzles and handle longer missions. Disable online play or restrict to known friends if you want to avoid strangers.
ℹ️Ages 9-12
Good fit. Puzzles encourage problem solving and the cooperative ScareScraper mode supports teamwork; mild fantasy violence and cartoon ghosts are appropriate for this age. Recommend supervised online play (friends only) for safer social interaction.
ℹ️Ages 13-15
Appropriate and enjoyable. Teens will appreciate the puzzles, exploration, and cooperative multiplayer. Be aware of in-game purchases and the potential for playing with strangers online if matchmaking is used.
ℹ️Ages 16-18
Suitable. Older teens can play independently; consider managing purchase settings on the Nintendo Account if you want to restrict optional spending.
