I’m not going to try to be excessively positive, but I won’t deny the fact I had more fun with Hotel Transylvania 3 than expected. Given the fact its source material isn’t exactly Citizen Kane material, I was impressed with how the developers managed to come up with what’s essentially a simplified Pikmin clone with a somewhat original story and not just a barebones adventure game following the movie’s plot frame-by-frame. Ugly visuals and a high asking price hinder what could have been an even more enjoyable experience, but I’d say this isn’t a bad purchase if you can find it for a lower price later on, especially if you like Pikmin.

Critic reviews
- I’d recommend Monsters Overboard if you’re a fan of Hotel Transylvania, and therefore the devs have done their job with the movie tie-in. It’s no-where near as good as Pikmin, but the characters are here, the voice acting is done well, and the gameplay genuinely fits the theme and is pleasant enough to hold me over until Olimar’s return.
- 6.5Un’opzione accantonata quasi subito, purtroppo. Inoltre, anche la scarsa varietà di contenuti e di azione man mano che si avanza sul percorso non depongono a favore del gioco, che probabilmente punta sulla fama del titolo cinematografico e sulla possibilità di cavalcare l’onda dell’uscita in sala. Un gioco dunque che, come i suoi protagonisti, proprio non ne vuole sapere di farsi baciare dalla luce del sole.
