Hey, so here’s the thing about GHOST TOWN—this new VR game that was just released by Fireproof Games. You know, the folks who brought us that other game, The Room: A Dark Matter? Yeah, apparently everyone loved that one. I’m talking, like, “best VR puzzle game ever” kind of love. Anyway, Fireproof is bringing us something fresh, kinda different this time around.
So, GHOST TOWN just dropped for Quest 2 and Quest 3. And don’t fret, PC VR and PSVR 2 players, it’s coming your way too. Not sure exactly when, but it’s definitely gonna happen. This game veers off the path from their old The Room series—like, it’s jumping out of the car altogether. But still, it loves puzzles and storytelling. Maybe it’ll make you scratch your head, or maybe you’ll find a few stories to get lost in.
Okay, sidetrack alert: Have you ever watched those ghost hunting shows when nothing really happens but the suspense feels like it’s gonna jump out and slap you in the face? That’s kinda what GHOST TOWN is vibing with. It’s got all the supernatural flair without slapping the horror label on it. It’s more about feeling creeped out and curious than outright terrified. Like, what’s that shadow over there kind of curious. Goosebumps, but no nightmares.
Fireproof’s been cooking this thing for almost four years now—seriously, just imagine that level of dedication. Makes me wonder if they ever just stared at the screen and thought, “What if we just made this a dancing game instead?” Anyway, they say this is their big leap forward. And they’re jazzed about their characters—fully motion-captured, thank you very much.
Oh, and the visuals? Word on the digital street is that everyone’s impressed by how good it looks, even on Quest. They’re taking us all back to 1980s London. I wasn’t around back then, but I imagine it’s like a maze of fog, dodgy phone booths, and probably a lot of punk rockers. Could be just my imagination, though.
Still no date on when it’ll hit PC VR and PSVR 2, which is a bit of a bummer if you ask me. But hey, if you’re rocking a Quest 2 or 3 (or the 3S, apparently), you can dive in right now. But it’s gonna cost you $30. A bit of cash, but maybe it’s worth it if you fancy a virtual stroll through spectral streets.
So there you have it, the scoop on GHOST TOWN. Keep your controllers charged and your suspense levels high. Cheers to pixelated mysteries!
