If you had a sour taste in your mouth after playing Luigi’s Mansion 2 on the 3DS due to the way that the title was mission-based and less open-ended than the original Luigi’s Mansion, then I have some great news for you.

Luigi’s Mansion 3 is way less linear than Dark Moon and instead of having missions or chapters, the entire game is open for you to go back and forth, similar to a Metroidvania, but it’s still not as open as the first game.

Each floor of the 15-story-high hotel has a different theme and boss fights for Luigi to get through. One floor is based on a dinosaur museum, another takes place in a production studio, and then you have one that’s based on the pyramids in ancient Egypt –there’s tons of variety.

But, you essentially go through each floor and then move on to the next one without the need to backtrack, unless you’re hunting for the hidden gems and Boos.

It’s definitely not as open-ended as the first game but Luigi’s Mansion 3 still does a great job at letting you explore at your own pace.
