Gameplay

12 of 66 sampled reviews raised it
This research-focused structure gives the game a progression system that feels grounded in learning rather than simple stat upgrades.
Multiplayer
Players who bring up Multiplayer mostly praise it.
9 of 66 sampled reviews raised it
I feel like the game is inspired by Ghost Watchers since you can catch ghosts and you see them in your lobby which is cool and you can play all kind of games with your friends in the lobby if you are bored or when you are waiting for others to join in
Co-op
Players who bring up Co-op mostly praise it.
8 of 66 sampled reviews raised it
Ghost Bane is a super refreshing take on ghost-hunting games, and as a 4-player co-op, it really nails the team dynamic.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
6 of 66 sampled reviews raised it
Atmospherically, Ghostbane leans into traditional horror aesthetics with dim lighting, unsettling sound design, and environments that feel abandoned and oppressive.
