Caspers Scare School Spooky Sports Day

SCORE: 66

Red Wagon Games has been busy with the Casper franchise. I personally found Casper's Scare School Spooky Sports Day on the Wii an interesting concept. Take Casper, add in some physical activities (well for the characters at least) and you have an interesting mini game compilation. There are seven different mini games in Casper's Scare School Spooky Sports Day. But we get to play them in two different worlds. The second world is a little more difficult than the first.

Ghosts, vampires, skeletons, and more are in Casper's Scare School Spooky Sports Day. Many of them are artistic on the cute side. Although my five year old screamed and ran off after seeing certain characters in Casper's Scare School Spooky Sports Day. The details are decent in Casper's Scare School Spooky Sports Day. I must admit that Casper looks a little different in this game from what I remember.

The sound effects in Casper's Scare School Spooky Sports Day are actually fun. I enjoyed the music, but it was a little short. Well I will get to the shortness of this game in a little bit. Casper's Scare School Spooky Sports Day has written instructions on how to play the games. The Wii Remote is the only controller needed for this game. You may think that is obvious, but a certain Brainiac did not check the back and spent half of the game with a Nunchuk connected.

The mini games in Casper's Scare School Spooky Sports Day contain an amount of fun. I was a little disappointed at how quickly it was over with though. I beat Casper's Scare School Spooky Sports Day in under an hour. Fourteen mini games that are generally easy. Now I do believe Casper's Scare School Spooky Sports Day is for children. The down side is only one player can enjoy Casper's Scare School Spooky Sports Day at a time. It would have been great for at least two players to enjoy it at the same time.

Casper's Scare School Spooky Sports Day has pretty good controls. I found a few nuances in things like the egg walk. I ran into problems with the jumping over holes, but was able to figure it out. Casper's Scare School Spooky Sports Day will have kids shaking and moving the Wii Remote in ways that will assist them get a little exercise. Not a lot.

Good and clean competition is the main goal in Casper's Scare School Spooky Sports Day. In fact there is no messing with other players. I appreciate that. Too many sport based mini games like to have players interfere and I really hate that. Casper's Scare School Spooky Sports Day is a different kind of a mini game compilation. I think there is a good foundation for a sequel in the future. The ghost, vampires, skeletons, and more content will turn off some families.
