Early childhood favourite, I still have the original disc copy. I highly recommend this game. It has aged visually, but the game play never will! There are really good guides if you get stuck but this game makes it worth figuring it out on your own. I second every comment begging for a remaster or a Ghost Masters 2! It's quite surprising that there has been no game like this since, kind of a shame!

Ghost Master is hands down one of the best games ever made. The unique blend of strategy, humor, and supernatural mischief makes it a truly unforgettable experience. Leading a team of mischievous ghosts to spook mortals, solve puzzles, and unleash chaos has never been more satisfying. It’s rare to find a game that nails both strategy and comedy so flawlessly, but Ghost Master pulls it off. Even after all this time, it remains a one-of-a-kind masterpiece. I’m still holding out hope for a Ghost Master 2 — the world needs more ghostly goodness!

👻 This game deserves praise for its idea alone. It's incredibly fun to play a small «Sims» where you control ghosts instead of people. The devs could have taken the easy way, but they made this much more diverse by adding many types of spirits, each of which can exist in its own environment, as well as missions that aren't only: "scare them all". The mechanics are simply interesting to learn and try, and the various environments with references don't let you get bored. Enough features, choice of skills, unit tracking modes, great music and sound. Of course, the tech part is a little outdated, which is noticeable by the control settings, NPC animations, as well as their weird AI. Nevertheless, this is one of those games that you can launch, just because it's pleasant to play. Still a top tier for mysticism lovers.

I used to own this on disk and I played the game countless times. The pop culture references are cute and clever. The puzzles are challenging. I really enjoy this game.

I've been replaying this game regularly since childhood. It has such a fun concept, which transfers to the enjoyable gameplay. I'd love to play its sequel or remaster if it ever comes to be.
