Ghostboy
Ghostboy game for friends or strangers where players take on the role of ghosts exploring their past and future, reminiscing over memories while accepting that time moves forward. Fun with reflection and joyful interactions in a melancholic tone about leaving behind material world ties to move ahead without them being played again once they pass away from this physical realm.
