Immerse yourself into a rich story and atmospheric setting
Ghost on the Shore is a story exploration game about emotional ties that transcend even death.
You play as Riley, a young woman who finds herself stranded on a desolate island with a headstrong ghost, dead for as long as he can remember.
As you explore the crumbling homes of the vanished islanders and discover their belongings, you get to know the ghost Josh. As you make irrevocable choices in dialogue you shape the bond with him, which ultimately influences the outcome of the game.
As Riley puts it all together, she comes to understand how an island's history has led to Josh' death.
Exploration and Environmental Storytelling
You explore the beautiful scenery of The Rogue Islands on foot. As you do, you talk to Josh about the history of the islands, his memories, his feelings, but also about Riley’s dreams and goals, and why she’s running from her old life.
As a team, you and Josh discover the old islanders’ belongings and uncover the stories behind them. Which creates a specific sense of what life was like on these islands before people started leaving.
Immersive Dialogue
A unique feature that allows the player to make choices in a subtle immersive way. You don't always know how your words will affect the other. Words are powerful tools. Just like in real life, things can become fun, exciting or plain awkward.
Irrevocable Choices
Every dialogue option is shown only once, which makes your choices definite.
Branching Narrative
The relationship you choose to build with the ghost defines the narrative branch you get to explore. There are four branches with a different ending for each.

Why buy on GOG.COM?
DRM FREE. No activation or online connection required to play.
I really love the game, you play a young girl meeting a ghost on an island and you search with him his story.
The game was beautiful, the story was excellent, and the voice actor was amazing.
Initially, I wanted to play just a little bit, but I ended up finishing the game in one row. That was not good for my productivity, but it worthed it.
If you liked What Remains of Edith Finch, The Vanishing of Ethan Carter etc buy this game!
Very very slow game - lots or reading notes/books that you find while exploring the islands, and those are not voice acted. No puzzles or problem solving.
First half it all feels extremely boring - but later on in the game you get to know who this ghost is and start getting curious about what happened in the past.
In the end the game is alright - it's a very serious/sad/mature story.
The graphics are sadly very ugly I must say - not nostalgic/retro/pixelart or anything like that, it just feels very low budget. Yet it is very demanding - prepare to have a 4070 or similar for max settings at 4k!
Sounds and voice acting are better in my opinion, the GUI is easy to use, and the game autosaves sort of all the time.
Apparently there are 4 different endings, depending on dialogue choices during your playthrough.
