About the Game


The Outbound Ghost is an adventure RPG about helping ghosts ascend to the afterlife. The town of Outbound is, quite literally, a ghost town – a home to troubled spooks with unresolved earthly issues, condemning them to an eternity haunting their old *ahem* haunts.

Battle the past, gain new abilities, solve puzzles, and uncover the mysteries of Outbound to help its unliving residents find peace, freeing them from the shackles of their ghostly limbo.

  • Colourful characters: Meet a lovable cast of spooks along the way, each with their own story to unravel
  • Combat encounters: Unlock figments of your past personality, such as Regret, Comradery, and Jealousy and use them as party members in turn-based battles
  • Aspects System: Craft materials earned by winning combat encounters into badges, which can be equipped for various effects and stat boosts
  • A world in 2.5D: Adorable, paper-style characters inhabit a world with depth and detail to create a distinctly eye-catching visual style



In the world of The Outbound Ghost, ghosts are the embodiment of regret. Most people go to the afterlife after dying, yet those who were unhappy with their previous lives become ghosts and are forced to haunt the Earth until they right their wrongs. Of course, this is not always possible since doing this as a ghost is orders of magnitude harder than when you are a human. However, some manage to do this and are able to spend the rest of their deaths in the afterlife. In The Outbound Ghost, your task is to help others fix or come to terms with their past lives so that they can enjoy the pleasures of eternal bliss. You must achieve that for yourself too, but it's not so easy to mend the mistakes of your past life when you don't even remember them.

Overall I'd give this game a 4/10. The visuals are beautiful to look at, and the timing of the combat inputs is really tight (which would be annoying if they didn't). However, I'd say that's where the redeeming qualities end. It felt like oftentimes I was just wandering through the map from Point A to Point B, sometimes taking a detour to Point C and fighting whatever got in my way. There's no puzzles. Minimal exploration rewards. In fact, most of the time I felt like I took a detour to explore off-route and ended up feeling like I wasted my time or found a dead-end, which wouldn't bother me so much if walking wasn't so slow. The combat in this game (like the visuals) pulls from Paper Mario games. Your player character collects these "Figments," which are your party members and have different aspects and abilities. You can also equip them with items that will grant new abilities, make them better in certain aspects, etc. When you use an attack, there is usually a combination of input...
