There are a lot of reviews that just say "play it" and don't spoil anything. While I agree with this statement, I want to talk about what you should expect from this game for those wondering. First of all, this is basically a puzzle game with a big emphasis on story. The puzzles are very unique; I'm pretty sure Iā€™ve never seen a similar game. The puzzles go like this: you try to save a person from death by possessing objects and interacting with them. You need to save the person within a given time limit. Don't worry, the time limit is just a means to make the puzzles more interactive. The time you have is more than enough, and the game also has checkpoints. Now, about the story: the game was written by Shu Takumi, the guy who made the Ace Attorney series. He has a unique writing style that combines lighthearted moments and comedy with interesting, gripping plots and serious moments. This game has around 8 story twists, but theyā€™re all earned and organic, so it only makes the story more interesting. Many people say this is the peak in terms of video game stories. I don't know about that, but the story is exceptionally good in my opinion. From start to finish, I was hooked, and there was no downtime. Also, what's more impressive is that there are about 15 characters, and I remember all of them. They're all really cool and interesting. Genuinely, Iā€™d probably recommend this game over any Ace Attorney game, just because this one is consistently good, while Ace Attorney has some really bloated moments. Although this game isnā€™t as funny as Ace Attorney, so take that as you will. Overall, I think more people should play it, just for themselves. Itā€™s a unique experience that you don't get anywhere else.

I remember first playing Ghost Trick when I was like 10/11. I remember I downloaded the demo through the DS Download Play and I remember loving the first 2 chapters. (Missile best boy) I have been thinking about the end of this game for over 10 years. 10 years later and it still holds up. please do yourself a favour and play this underrated gem. (try the demo) Every character oozes charm, every song is a banger, every puzzle is super satisfying to watch play out when you get it right. and most importantly, you might end up thinking of the game's story for the next 10 years. :)
