Set in 1983, Ghost Town follows Edith Penrose, a ghost hunter whose search for her missing brother turns her paranormal investigations into a personal mystery. Her trail leads through haunted locations and brings her into contact with people and restless spirits.
In this single-player VR adventure, you explore in first person with motion controllers and a torch, inspect locations, and work through tactile puzzles. Challenges involve manipulating objects and mechanisms, using spells, and interacting with spirits.
Puzzle-solving and exploration move the story forward across a sequence of locations. Conversations with characters add context to the investigation, while an in-game hint system can offer guidance when you need it.
Reviewers who enjoyed the game often praise its atmospheric locations and presentation, along with puzzles that make satisfying use of VR interaction. Many describe its supernatural mood as eerie rather than outright frightening, and some appreciate the story and character performances. Recurring reservations include the short playtime, light puzzle difficulty, and limited interaction with objects outside of puzzles.
