What players think
The recurring themes across 60 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
The levels are well-designed and are bigger in each new unlocked location, and the gameplay is super entertaining.
The game’s charm largely comes from its offbeat tone and cartoony art style, which transform what could be a repetitive premise into a surprisingly enjoyable romp through haunted urban environments.
It also supports local co-op, allowing friends to team up and tackle ghosts together, which adds an extra layer of fun and replay value.
Characters and ghosts are designed with a sense of whimsy rather than horror, which helps keep the mood lighthearted.
You can play the game with your mouse and keyboard or a gamepad.
Narratively, Dead End Job doesn’t aim for deep storytelling, but its script and voice acting inject a lot of personality and humor into the proceedings.
