I'm about to be so annoying when the remake of this comes out.

WHAT WAS THAT YESSSSS I LOVE IT

Míssil melhor cachorro dos vídeo jogos


One of those games I'd give 6 stars to if I could. Also one of those games you wish you could experience for the first time again. Absolutely obsessed.

Un juego lleno de encanto que sabe aprovechar la DS al máximo, consiguiendo así una jugabilidad única.
Los puzzles aunque no llegan a ser muy complejos, son interesantes y no aburren, metiendo nuevas mecánicas poco a poco para ir reviviendo conceptos previamente vistos.
Por el resto, los personajes, el apartado artístico y la banda sonora están repletos de personalidad; lo que acaba resultando en una gran experiencia.

Its a pretty good puzzle game that manages to stay consistently engaging through the novelty of its mechanics and quick pacing.

But more than its mechanics, the game is really elevated by just how charming it is. Put the two together and Ghost Trick makes for a really enjoyable experience without any major drawbacks. An easy recommendation overall.

jogo muito pica. dito isso, a melhor forma de jogar essa obra prima é coma as traduções da Jacutem Sabão.

Peak Video Game Entertainment for me as of now and I don't say something lightly.

If you look at my bio my requirements for a good game, I said: "if it does have a engaging gameplay with variety and depth, fun characters that I can fell in love and admire, really good at pacing with throwing my face a new content at least in every 20 minute." etc. This game have every one of them.

Before starting this game, I really didn't know what should I expect. I knew it was on the list that shows what games Shu Takumi created and I also saw the cover art of it. I love Shu Takumi's works even at his worst of times but seeing the cover... it looked boring. There is a goofy looking man, his head at the ground... sleeping/thinking/resting? And an aura surrounds him. Only thing I felt from the cover is this game is gonna be about shitty cartoon comedy with how goofy the cover looks. But I am glad I was wrong, very very very wrong.

I still think the cover looks atrocious and think that an aura that connects to multiple characters like a spiderweb in the cover would explain this game better. Also I couldn't find any adverts for this game, did Capcom market this game or not? I don't know but if they didn't they made the greatest disservice for this game.

Story

You wake up, you found yourself as a lamp for some reason. You see your body. Dead at the ground. But for some reason your soul isn't on the other side? Your soul somehow stuck in this lamp. Then you see a suspicious person... WITH A GUN. He runs to a lady with his weapon at his hand, he will shoot her!? And then you use a trick to shield her. The next time you look, the killer is dead with your trick and lady is safe. But you started to wonder, why am I dead? And why there is suspicious people that tries to murder this poor lady?

And you go into an adventure while trying to follow the lady to remember your memories, your loved ones, your experiences while you are alive and solve the mystery about who killed you and why?

And damn... what a mystery that is with lots of lovable characters and emotional moments in it. I can't say no more. Go and play it. Even if you don't like it I guarantee you that at least it's gonna be a unique one and that's something rare in this age.

Gameplay

It a puzzle game that you need to solve part by part to advance and uncover the mystery. You are a ghost that can't explore far away, because you have to stay inside of something to not disappear. But you can impersonate an object to do a "trick" to make a way for you. With doing a "trick" you can create a way to an another object that connects to your way and with that you can carry your "ghost" to that object.

For example you are inside a ball, with using the "trick" button for ball to roll, you can arrive to an umbrella. If they are next to each other, you can carry your "ghost" to that umbrella. After that you become the umbrella and now you can use umbrella's "trick" to advance to the next object. Now it's sounds doesn't interesting that much probably?

Until I say, the "Death" comes in. Killers are everywhere and they are here to KILL EVERY ONE OF YOUR LOVED ONES! And you, being a ghost doesn't mean you can't help them. You HAVE TO help them and that's where things get complicated to what trick to use what objects to impersonate and there is looooots of objects to impersonate so don't worry about the variety I would say.

There is lots of planning to do and strategies to create! I would say, this gameplay is probably the best Shu Takumi did to this date. You are not passively trying to find lies here. You are actively trying to save lives and that's why it does make things more exciting.

My favourite game of all time that I recommend to everyone that still have the childish exploration soul in it to experience unique things

One of my favourite games of all time. Fun puzzle mechanics, fun characters, aestetichally pleasing backgrounds and models, and oh boy the story, so good!

still a better cat story than stray

coincidentally finished on its anniversary!

i feel like the plot of it gets increasingly jumbled towards the end, but this suuuuuuuuch a good game. the gameplay is very fun, each new location and character has SO much personality, the designs are amazing - i love beauty's ridiculous hair!, the plot is great, and it has a dog AND a cat!!! what more could you ask!!!

also "what is it about pain? does it make you feel ALIVE?" is one of the hardest videogame lines ever. i am so glad this game might get a second chance at success because it deserves it so fucking much


Loved this game, will probably finish when the remaster is out

my fav game ever, everything abt it is awesome. please play it asap

I think the game twice longer than it should be, and I really tired to watch same scenes again and again.
But at the end of the day, I would lie if I say I did not drop a tear at final chapter.
