GHOST TOWN
A game about a ghost choosing community instead of chaos. Rebuild a broken town, one spirit at a time.


STORYLINE
You are a ghost who is tired of haunting, spreading fear, and negativity. Instead, you decide to build a place where ghosts can choose peace instead of chaos and fear, called a 'ghost town'. You want to end the cycle of suffering created by your trauma and choose a different path, one with unlikely community and love, by helping others come to the same conclusion. Recruit other ghost members to your town and expand your community but turning them good. But be careful! Lucious, a fallen sin, will go out of his way to stop you and please the ruler of the underworld.
OVERVIEW
