Ballistics Report

Pros

Style
The humor is sweet and subtle, except for the puns thrown in your face every once in a while – but those work, rest assured.

Interface
Managing all those ghosts and humans can be a challenge while trying to avoid banishment, but the interface makes sure it never becomes a tedious process.

They're scared and believing


Graphics & Sound
Much like the style of the game, they never really wow you, but do a rock solid job of presenting the game world.

Gameplay
It’s simple but addictive. The challenges made by the make help the player form his own challenges, like herding people around or creating storms for an extra haunting atmosphere. It also offers a lot of replay value, for those wanting every ghost and trying to beat the best score.

Cons

Lack of action
As far as player interaction goes, most scenarios feature very little player action unless the player is motivated. Once humans capable of banishing ghosts become a nuisance, the action picks up.

Lack of ‘WOW!’ factor
There’s nothing about Ghost Master to really grab the player. It’s not like a match of StarCraft, Quake or even Combat Mission which pretty much pins the gamer’s balls down to the seat until he’s done.
