Dark Moon came out during my Nintendo drought years. The first Luigi's Mansion was a treasured playthrough on the Gamecube, the console before the Switch that really had my attention. So the memories of the franchise when I picked up the sequel as an adult were far enough away for me to approach Dark Moon with an open mind regarding the mission structure.

I both appreciate the level-by-level gameplay and acknowledge that it breaks the immersion of the world's design. But kudos where kudos are due, part of the frustration of being yanked out of the world is due to genius level design. Combine this with a soundtrack that is both amusing and creepy and you've got a great Luigi adventure that encourages you to take breaks as needed.
