Ghostbusters: Spirits Unleashed Review (Lord Of War)
How much slime? Yes!
Key features
short game and matches,
very well structured and easy to navigate,
can play as a ghost.
It's casual
Ghostbusters: Spirits Unleashed Ecto Edition (or GSUEE) is a very relaxed first person ghost hunting adventure.
Extremely forgiving one too. Your character doesn't have health, can jump off heights and only occasionally gets slightly slowed down. If you lose, so what? An average match lasts from 5 to 10mins, just start another.

Extra points for not having to wait for any ridiculous online queues - pick a mission and you're already loading in \m/
There are ten different locations with a bunch of ghosts to hunt down.
The story is almost non existent and it's literally the same set of maps replayed over and over.

Ghosts are cool
GSUEE focuses more on a ghostbuster play, with its gear and cosmetics, unlocked further as you level up. But there's also a ghost side, which I find more appealing.
Ghosts can possess items and then move around, so the game becomes a Prop and Seek. They can scare NPCs with various abilities e.g. summoning minions, infernal hands, or simply hanging people in the air. It's just fun to jump into a plushy and then boo everyone in your way.

Nice game overall. It's simple, doesn't artificially extend its value, has multiple gear skins which you kinda have to grind, but don't have to. One of a few games where experience is showered on you. Well done!
