A cemetery's worth of phantoms, wraiths, and poltergeists lookin' for love.

Speed Dating for Ghosts is literally what it sounds like, a dating sim about speed dating for ghosts. You start the game and get to pick from 3 different rooms that have 3 different ghosts in each. You have two rounds to speak with all three of the ghosts in that room, and the ghost changes in front of you every time a bell rings, so... literally like speed dating works usually.

There is a lot of different dialogue in the game, branching choices that make you want to meet the ghosts again later and many different kinds of ghosts to choose from. The tone of this dating sim is definitely to be more comedic than romantic, but it does work work in this concept really well. For me, my own favorites from the ghosts you can choose from were Hattie, Spooky Peter and Gary. Hattie was sweet, but also told an important story about old people in nursing homes. Spooky Peter was, as I understood, a plague doctor before he died, and he was very spooky and dry, but also really fun and interesting. Gary was really creepy and well done, but also sad and interesting.

Overall, I think this game is a short little fun trip for those of us who enjoy dating sims, and it's definitely worth it. I honestly think you should wait for a sale as the amount of content and dialogue is not worth it for the full price, but it's still worth to get.
