How it plays

How does Ghostbusters play?

The game uses a side-scrolling perspective. The objective is to move through haunted stages, defeat or avoid supernatural enemies, and complete each mission while managing health and equipment.

Players navigate platforms, fire the proton weapon, deploy ghost-catching equipment, and contend with hazards and bosses. Progression comes from clearing stages and improving the effectiveness of the team’s tools during the campaign.

Plan your run

What is the best way to play Ghostbusters?

Learn the timing of enemy attacks before committing to close-range encounters. Keep moving through open areas, but pause near hazards so that jumps and attacks can be deliberate.

Conserve equipment for bosses and dense enemy groups. Explore the stage layout carefully, since safe positioning and knowing where threats appear are more valuable than rushing forward.
