About

In How to Say Goodbye you play as a ghost trying to help other spirits move on. The game uses puzzle mechanics where you rearrange objects and characters to clear paths and solve environmental challenges. Each level feels like piecing together a story about why these ghosts are stuck between worlds. The controls are simple but the solutions often require thinking in layers as you manipulate both the physical space and the ghosts' interactions. The game stands out for its quiet emotional core. It frames complex themes like grief and closure through gentle gameplay that never feels heavy handed. With over 40 levels on PC and Switch the puzzles scale from straightforward to cleverly complex. While there's no official review score it has a 4.5 star average on indie forums for balancing heart with clever design. The art style mixes soft colors and fluid animations that make the afterlife feel oddly warm.

Storyline

Follow the story of a group of ghosts looking to discover who they were and why they are still here, through a family friendly tale of loss, how to deal with it, and acceptance. Navigate an intricate world filled with mind-bending yet fun puzzles, find clues about the identities of our spirit friends, and help them reach the other side.
