User Reviews for GHOST TRICK: Phantom Detective

Amazing but cost...

I love this game SO MUCH!It’s definitely my favorite game up to date AND retro!The only thing I would change would be the cost. I know that you developers need money for making these games and stuff, but if you could ever make a free version, like a different story and different scenes, but the same game, essentially. Like... a shorter version of this game, but a different storyline. I hope you get it.Other than the cost, this is my favorite game and it completely got me hooked the second I started playing it. Developers, even if you don’t take my above suggestion, please at least make a sequel to this game, or with the same controls.Amazing!

Fantastic game, decent port

The game is fantastic. I’m a pretty avid gamer but rarely commit to iOS ports; however I do not own a DS anymore due to poor eyesight. The game is a satisfying, powerfully captivating narrative full of interesting plot twists, great character development, a stunning OST to accompany you every second of the way, and the unexplainable phenomenon where you just want to keep playing to find out what happens and say “5 more minutes” over and over again until it’s 6 AM and the sun has risen. The port sees some lag/memory issues in the later chapters but not significant enough to detract from the overall experience. A fantastic, memorable game that sticks with you days and weeks after finishing it.

Difficult but extremely engaging and fun

I don’t recall exactly how I came across this game, but I pretty much exclusively play puzzler type games and I must say that this is one of the best ones out there. Yes, it’s a finite game and storyline, which some might balk at due to the price, but it’s still worth it in my opinion. The mechanics and ingenuity of this game are incredible and it really makes your brain work outside of the box in strange and delightful ways. Plus the story is good. It’s hard for a game to tick all the boxes—game play, story, mechanics, etc.—but Ghost Trick meets and surpasses these in extraordinary ways.If they ever made another game like this, I’d buy it in a heartbeat.

One of my favorite games

I bought this game maybe 10 years ago and have re-downloaded and re-played it many times. You start out having died but have no memory of who you are. You have the ability to go back in time and manipulate objects. The storyline is intriguing and keeps you involved till the very end. The gameplay is a lot of fun figuring what object does what and the timing of when to do it. The writing is witty and funny. It's paid to unlock all chapters but definitely worth it. I keep coming back to this game when I forget the details to enjoy it all over again.

When do I get to play?

This is so well done that it gets in the way of itself. I would give it 5 stars but I feel like there is so much to the story and less play time for me. All I want to do is the tricks but there is constant reading and more reading and even more reading. I’m constantly tapping the screen to read more. Get the idea? The dialog is quite good and I realize that they have to show you what to do and the game is quite genius but I need a game I can just play. I want to eliminate the story and just do the puzzles. I want to discover and uncover the story as I go and let it unfold naturally. I feel like I’m reading a well written novel instead of actually doing anything. I don’t like timed games either. It deserves 5 stars just for the complexity and depth and the programming involved. For me though, I’m going to put it on the back burner as I was getting frustrated waiting for my turn to “roll the dice.” I do like the game but after 45 minutes, the actual play time was 5 minutes each scene and I manipulated two scenes. It needs to move along.

Stellar game, I loved every bit

TotalBiscuit kept recommending it on the Co-optional Podcast so I gave in and bought the game. This game is spectacular, it has a vivid and tragic story and its game mechanics are rather unique. All characters have their own distinct personalities and it is easy to tell them apart. The story broke my heart and I highly recommend this game. If you want to try it out, first 2 chapters are free. If you like those, you most likely will like the rest of the game. Also for those complaining it costs money, the DS game is around $25-$30. The iOS costs $10 to get all the chapters in one go. You are saving money so hush. It is worth far more than those numbers.

Still my favourite puzzle thriller on IOS

I’d never felt urgency, empathy, and actual investment because of an Iphone game before this one. The characters are greatly well-written and he mystery actually surprises you in ways you didn’t expect. The touch controls are intuitive and ultimately makes the game a great one.Perhaps the best moment in the game is one where you’re rushing to complete the puzzle or to move your character faster. The reason you rush is because you know a character you like is going to die or fall into a trap or something of the sort. I’ve never felt that way about characters in an Iphone game before.But of course this was originally released on DS.

Retro style

Game flow, sound/music, & dialogue has a Super Nintendo game vibe—almost RPG in nature in how you can examine lots of objects & talk to lots of characters—-a game style I really enjoy. If you don’t like lots of plot, character development & detail, then you will not like this game. The puzzles are delightful, wether easy or hard, they are pretty intuitive if you’re right brained & creatively minded. I had no real major difficulty with any; it was just hard enough to be fun. Very clever game structure, plot, unique non-cookie cutter characters—good enough to be made into a comic or cute show. They just don’t make unique games like this like they used to—really worth every penny. Hope they make more!

Chapter Re-Purchase

I played through the entirety of Ghost Trick a few years ago, and I must say it’s a wonderful game; unfortunately there is no sequel to continue the series, which is disappointing. After having an urge to Re-play the game, I downloaded it again only to find that the chapters I had bought were not available. In essence, if I want to replay the game again, I will have to re-purchase the episodes. Even so, the game is wonderful enough that I can easily justify a second purchase of the game. However, I hope that the bug is fixed for those who are in the same situation as me, but cannot afford a second purchase.

In my opinion a hidden gem in capcom’s line up

This game is honestly one of my favorite if not my favorite game of all time. The story line is extremely interesting and well written and characters are extremely memorable and great. The game despite originally being for the DS works incredibly well for a mobile phone game and you will find yourself investing hours into this game if you truly enjoy it. I loved this game so much I finished this 12+ hour adventure in less then a week it was that great! Well worth the 10 dollars. I’m assuming capcom fixed all the bugs as I’ve came across none. My only complaint of this game is 3 things.1. There’s no sequel 2. You can solve mysteries in one way only making the adventure feel slightly linear however the writers and creators of this game are extremely creative 3. The game is extremely is text heavy wish some voice acting or something could’ve been added to this game.
