In 2008 Dangerous Dave in the Haunted Mansion was ported to cell phones. Romero says that among all Dangerous Dave sequels Dangerous Dave in the Haunted Mansion is 'the best Dave ever created'. The mission is to guide Dave through ten levels, collecting trophies in the hideout of his enemy, Clyde.

There are similarities between the two games, such as the secret levels, the level design, the monsters, and the jumping. The idea for Dangerous Dave came to John Romero under the influence of Super Mario. Since the original 1988 publishing of Dangerous Dave on UpTime, there have been three sequels and three ports of the original to other platforms. This game is in 16-color double-res mode on the Apple II and is essentially the same as the original Apple II hi-res version titled 'Dangerous Dave in the Deserted Pirate's Hideout'. Guide Dave through ten terrifying levels as he tries to reclaim his trophies from a deserted pirate's hideout! This is a standard platform run and jump game although with only 10 levels it's meant to be more difficult than the usual. The object of the game is to collect gold cups to move on to the next level. It was developed for the Apple II and DOS as an example game to accompany his article about his GraBASIC, an Applesoft BASIC add-on, for the UpTime disk magazine.
