An action adventure about a ghost’s journey through the afterlife. Possess enemies and the environment and fend off hostile spirits in pursuit of starry fragments from a past life.
You control the protagonist, a ghost named Hauntii, using a unique twin-stick shooter style of gameplay. The core gameplay mechanic is the ability to possess and control various objects and enemies in the environment. This "haunting" feature allows you to interact with the world in creative ways, solving puzzles, defeating foes, and progressing through the level design.
You can possess and command a wide variety of entities, from trees and rocks to hostile spirits. Each possessed object or creature offers unique abilities and properties that you can utilize. Reviews praise this possession mechanic as satisfying and versatile, enabling you to craft innovative solutions to challenges and combat scenarios.
The game encourages thorough exploration of its hand-crafted, atmospheric environments. Investigating every nook and cranny rewards you with collectable "starry fragments" that unlock glimpses into the protagonist's past life. The ability to possess and manipulate objects opens up new pathways and secrets, heightening the sense of discovery and drawing you deeper into the ethereal world.
While the gameplay is generally described as relaxed and casual, the game does feature some challenging boss battles and combat encounters that test your mastery of the haunting mechanics. Reviewers note that these moments, though not overly difficult, provide a satisfying sense of accomplishment when overcome. The dual-stick shooter gameplay blends well with the possession mechanics, creating dynamic and engaging combat scenarios.
As you collect the starry fragments, you can upgrade the protagonist's abilities, such as increasing their dash distance or ammunition capacity. This upgrade system, while relatively simple, is praised for complementing the exploration-focused gameplay loop and providing meaningful progression without becoming overbearing.
