Play Monster House (U)(Rising Sun) Online
You creep through a shifting haunted house, smashing possessed furniture and dodging living appliances—the furnace fight still gives me sweaty palms. Controls feel floaty at first, but the GBA version nails that creepy cartoon energy.
Monster House for the Game Boy Advance came out in 2006, developed by Astraware Limited. It was one of those licensed games that showed up late in the GBA's life, based on the animated movie of the same name. The game captures the look and feel of the film, with its spooky but cartoonish style fitting right in with other action-adventure titles on the handheld.
You play as DJ, the main character, exploring a haunted house that shifts and changes as you move through it. Your goal is to rescue your friend Jenny and put a stop to the house's supernatural activity. You fight possessed objects like chairs and lamps using a slingshot, and you solve environmental puzzles to unlock new areas. The house is laid out screen by screen, with some backtracking as you find new items or abilities. The pacing is steady, though some enemy patterns can feel repetitive after a while. It feels like a straightforward, slightly janky adventure that nails the movie's eerie but playful tone.
