Ghost Simulator

About

Ghost Simulator casts you as a spirit haunting a family trapped in a New Hampshire home. Instead of playing the victim, you manipulate the environment to scare them, moving objects, whispering through phones, or causing sudden temperature drops. The game blends exploration with role-playing, letting you customize your ghost’s abilities and decide how aggressively you unsettle the residents. Each action affects their behavior, creating a shifting dynamic between fear and frustration. The game’s eerie atmosphere and simple mechanics have drawn praise from early reviewers, with some calling it "creepily satisfying." While the story is minimal, the freedom to experiment with hauntings keeps the experience unpredictable. Released in October 2023, it runs on PC, Mac, and Linux, offering a low-effort, high-spook single-player experience. Players new to horror games often note its gentle learning curve, though seasoned fans might find the scares more spooky than truly terrifying.
