Critic Reviews for Love, Ghostie
For a first-time developer, Janbeh Games has created such a lovely and cute time for fans of the cosy/wholesome genre. While a short game, it can be replayed multiple times just to find out the different couples and what each of their stories are like. Love, Ghostie is a pretty simple plot, and the art style is adorable, with each of the 12 characters' aesthetics really shining through. The music embodies the mood, awkward dates sound … awkward, and when your ghost is tired the music sounds deeper. It's really creative and helps evoke those feelings. Love, Ghostie is a tonne of fun and adorable. If Janbeh Games keeps up with this quality in future games, they'll certainly be one to keep your eye on.
Love, Ghostie is more treat than trick, bringing together time management, good vibes, and dad jokes into a lovable package.
Love, Ghostie is an adorable little matchmaking game filled with wholesome humour and amusing roommate shenanigans. Filled with fun mini-games and interesting characters, you'll easily spend hours invested in shipping each one.
Love, Ghostie is a very cute and cozy game. It is somewhat short but has a lot of replayability potential. We have 12 characters to mix and match, which makes for up to 65 potential couples and storylines. With its pleasant music and cute characters, as well as skip dialogue options, it makes for a very relaxing and fun afternoon playthrough
Overall, Love, Ghostie is exactly what it looks like on the tin: An adorable little slice of life full of charming characters you’ll get to know over the course of your adventure. While it doesn’t take long at all to reach the credits, the real fun comes from seeing all the various combinations, which greatly increases the run time. It’s not especially deep or demanding, but not everything needs to be that way. It’s cozy, and sometimes that’s precisely what one needs.
If you just want a game you don’t need to think about, Love, Ghostie will deliver. It’s every bit as shallow as the dating shows that inspired it, so if that’s the kind of game you’re after – and the continued popularity of the genre shows some people are – then this may be right up your alley.
