About this product

Product Information

Halloweentown resident Oogie Boogie once had his own August holiday, but hardly anyone remembers it -- it seems most folks just aren't too keen on celebrating bugs during prime picnic season. So Oogie decides to take revenge on the Pumpkin King himself, Jack Skellington, whose Halloween celebrations are enjoyed by all. In this side-scrolling platform game, inspired by the 1993 Tim Burton film, players take the role of Jack and try to keep an infestation of Oogie's creepy crawly pets from ruining Halloween for everyone.

You are essentially just running around and defeating enemies to try to save your town while jumping around platforms and playing a couple mini games.
Very nastolgic and enjoyable to play, definitely worth the price.
