It’s a procedurally generated twin-stick shooter that straps a vacuum pack to your back, and puts a plasma blaster in your hand. For you, it’s just another day in the office. You take on the role of Hector Plasm, a worker at Ghoul-B-Gone – ‘the Number One experts in paranormal pest control’ – as you’re tasked with heading to haunted offices, restaurants, and other everyday buildings before freeing them of unwanted guests. Have you got what it takes to be the best at putting pests to rest? Do you love 90's cartoons? Yeah, so do we, and we grew up on their stretchy squishy gross-out laughs. Our love for them spills over into the game like so much ectoplasm. See every nose hair in wacky, vibrant art that brings everyday items to life as screwball spooks to suck up. Exercise that fighting spirit, since every specter you snag and every resident you rescue is added to your client’s bill at the end of the job. Haunted by the ghost of your mentor, quite literally, you must learn the ropes and to save her soul before she’s forced to spend eternity as a spook (voted “Least Preferred Fate” in Ghost Hunter Monthly).

Completing the missions earns you money, more money the more you kill and also shoot machines that drop cash too. If you die you keep the cash you got so far but get demoted and lose your perks, you get perks by filling up your ghost catcher then it lets you pick one of three and I guess this goes on the more you fill up the tank without dying? It seems worth a look at, I’m not wowed by it but that’s mainly because for me the shoot stick doesn’t exactly work as I’d expect it to and doesn’t seem as accurate as I’d like but that could just be down to practice. But it does definitely seem to have something going for it and it has a story so I guess only more time will tell if it gets repetitive or if it’s more rougelike Morbus Iff Well-Known Member Sep 9, 2010 236 33 28 #3 Morbus Iff, Sep 23, 2019 I'm mixed on this one. The hillbilly-everyone-is-disgusting wore thin for me really quick long ago. I'm curious what'll happen once I hit 30 days or the $50,000 my goal apparently is, but there's nothing really driving me forward on this one. (You must log in or sign up to post here.)
