old gold,

well i dont get to play every game when they come out because no one has that kind of time for one, and another is it costs to much to buy first run games. now it turns out i just had to wait long enough. some of these classics i played already. freespace, descent 1&2, 3, more. but many i have not. ghost master sounded like fun when it came out but i did'nt get the chance to play it. thanks to GOG i got to play this cool game for a really cool price. if your reading reviews from customers to decide if its worth the money and the download. my recommendation, if you like the sims but always wanted to scare them to death. you will love this game. watch mortals run in fear. bust the ghostbreakers, scare some witches, even the Mob is scared of you. it may be old but its still fun. thanks GOG for the blast from the past. MORE GAMES!!!

Interesting tactics/puzzle mash-up

At first glance GM might look like simple tactical strategy where player has to scare the s*** out of everyone on the level by using squad of ghosts but there is more to it. Later levels often add more diverse objectives which might require luring mortals to do something or using specific powers of specific ghosts to achieve some goal. It can be both fun and annoying. There is a fair bit of randomness in this game and possibilities of controlling mortals are very limited which means that, depending on luck, some missions might be completed very quickly, even by coincidence, or be a real pain and take ages or many tries to finish. While most scenarios are rather easy and straightforward enough to win, few of them (e.g. final two) can be very tricky. For completionists there are also bonus ghosts to unlock hidden on most levels which require using ghost's powers (sometimes of more than one ghost) to be released. Hints on how to do that are usually vague or obscure and in some cases only very specific powers work while similar one or, one would think, logically correct won't which makes it serious but not necessarily fun challenge. As for ghosts there is quite a lot of them of different types and new powers can be unlocked between scenarios. Squad of maximum 6 can be used on mission which means sometimes restarts might be necessary in case of lack of ability needed to do something crucial. Fortunately game isn't overly linear and gives some freedom in sense that there often are multiple solutions to do the task, sometimes including very creative and unorthodox ones. It's certainly unique title, hard to classify as any genre and hard to compare with something similar. At least I don't know of such game. This uniqueness is probably the reason why it did poorly but at the same time is cult classic for many people. For expecting hardcore strategy it'll be too simplistic and lacking tactical depth. The puzzle aspect could be better thought. But overall this mix kinda works.

This is great fun!

I played through this game several times. It is one of my favorites. It is funny in itself and you can have great fun with it. I read in the comments that some people have a hard time with some of the missions, but honestly, you need to try multiple times if something is not right. My hint would be to pay attention to the people you are haunting. The behavior changes with their state. NOTE: I don't know about the GOG version 'cause I only played it on Steam yet.

Fun and Hilarious

It is a old game with old graphics, but still an excellent game. I played it when it was first released and I was hooked. The old style key combinations you can easily be changed. Also the even with the old graphic, the gameplay is very entertaining that you can pretty ignore that it is so old. If you want a game with humour and that is pure entertainment this is the game for you.

Shocking Find

Back when this game was soon to be released I managed to get my hands on a demo of it. I played it, falling in love and buying it as soon as I possibly could. The game itself is a well made RTS, but not on the traditional basebuilding sense. this real time is a complete neighbourhood of challanges and puzzles giving players the power to actually do something unheard of previously and control the ghosts. On first glance , it looks a lot like a strange sims game, however from the first level it comes alive with stratergy. You are the unlikely leader of a swarm of ghosts, controlling everything from tv destorying gremilins to headless horsemen. With a intricate upgrade system allowing you to tailor ghosts to their highest ablities crossed with a cartoony hilarious undertone this story allows you to be the creaper. Hoards of unique ablities raising fear, belief or instanity allows you to truely perfect your scare tatics. The game itself has very few bugs and a charming set of puzzles to unlock new minons. This game is a unheard of classic and will hopefully find new life at GOG's also, for extra fun, check out the few mods that are online, such as my personal favorite allowing any new ghosts to be taken to old levels, a must have for any true fan.
