Ghost Haunting

Ghost Haunting is a classic 2D point-and-click adventure in charming pixel art style. A loving homage to the graphic adventures of the 90s meets the modern interpretation of one of the most traditional genres in gaming history – expect to get sore muscles from grinning (no liability for permanent damage).  During her vacation, cheeky 8-year-old Gigi discovers that her grumpy grandpa Giovanni is in truth a famous ghost hunter. Based on this discovery and encouraged by her new pumpkin-demon sidekick Baron Butternut, Gigi decides to bring her beloved grandmother back from the realm of the dead.

Because if ghosts manage to enter our world of the living, then it must work the other way around too, right? RIGHT?! However, in doing so, the little whirlwind ultimately threatens to plunge the world into disaster. Whoopsie-daisy! An entertaining and warm-hearted story about growing up, death and how the two are connected…

  • You literally just point and click… Very chill pill.
  • Including all the modern perks you'd expect: hint-system, fast-travel and hotspot highlight function.
  • Comes with a "Not-getting-stuck-guarantee" for less frustration and more fun (*no guarantee)
  • Iconic, quirky humor and a loving, hand-crafted retro look.
  • A unique world full of bizarre characters, e.g.: one-quarter dead zombies, deathstyle coaches, the Invisible Olympic Committee and many, many more.
  • A brand-new IP that calls for sequels, prequels, spin offs, merch and any other thinkable form of profitable exploitation. Yay!
  • No jump scares. Probably.
