Grabbed by the Ghoulies Image
  • Summary: Do you dare step into a haunted house full of dancing zombies, cursed mummies, and boxing skeletons? Grabbed by the Ghoulies tests your courage as you play as Cooper, a kid on a mission to rescue his kidnapped girlfriend. She's trapped somewhere in the ominous Ghoulhaven Hall, which is rife with monsters, traps, and scares. But don't worry--you'll have more than 100 household objects, including chairs, pool cues, and fire extinguishers, to bash the ghoulies with. But be careful--if you fail to get through Ghoulhaven Hall, you'll become a prisoner there forever. Expand

  1. This is one of those infamous games that you'll pick up long after completion just for the fun of it.
  2. The game has a great look and feel to it, but the gameplay, while fast-paced, borders on being shallow.
  3. Gameplaywise, this is a disaster. [Jan 2004, p.154]

  2. This may be a tad bias of a score for this game but whatever. This was my second favorite Xbox game. For kids who aren't ape about graphics, or gameplay (or story for that matter), this game is hours of fun. It was the first game where I really got to interact with just about every non background piece of the environment and beat stuff to a pulp with it! If your just looking for something to pass the time, not an Illiad of gaming, this is a great buy. Expand

    I believe this is the worst Rare game ever made. The combat is ultra repetitive and boring to begin with. But even with all that, it's still got a great and fun style to it. But the gameplay is what matters, and it's terrible here. Expand
