Goosebumps Games: Escape From Horrorland

Goosebumps: Escape From Horrorland is the interactive sequel to R.L. Stine’s kids’ horror novel, One Day at Horrorland. You and Lizzy, her brother Luke, and his friend Clay are once again trapped in Horrorland, a sinister, scary “theme park.” When Luke and Clay are captured, you and Lizzy must find them and escape from the park with your lives. However, you must go up against a mummy, a werewolf, Dracula, and many more monsters in order to escape.

This is an excellent adventure game for that 8- to 13-year-old crowd that thrives on the likes of the R.L. Stine tomes and Nickelodeon’s Are You Afraid of the Dark. It is an unpretentious romp through a fictional amusement park that contains some genuinely spooky, but not scary, scenes. You play as Lucy, and your siblings, Luke and Clay, have been clutched by the evil tentacles of the Horrorland Theme Park. It now falls upon your shoulders to save your family from their unknown, but sure to be terrible, fate. Of course all of this transpires at night … during a full moon … as wolves howl in the background. I would expect nothing less.
