I will throw hands if I get jumped by another Demon the second I enter the house, and Shades are literally the Chudjak.

Besides that, absolute peak. My favourite of the co-op investigation style games like Content Warning, R.E.P.O. or Lethal Company. Deserves so much more attention than it gets.

Give us more player models though, or customisation, I beg.

I was recently recommended this game by my buddies at work and we played for three hours straight as a team. This game can be terrifying, addictive and fun. Once you start playing you will never want to stop. The atmosphere constantly keeps you on your toes and you never truly know what you're dealing with until the lights start flickering and that's when you know things are about to go down. At the time of writing this there are about 24 real world ghosts with different personalities and traits to give off the illusion that someone actually used to live during that point and time. I also appreciate the attention to detail given to all of the ghost hunting equipment and makes it seem like you're actually apart of one of those ghost hunting TV shows you used to see as a kid back in the day. The threats are constantly unknown, and you will feel the tension in the air, once you fully get used to the horror atmosphere. It becomes addictive, and you will want to spend time earning more equipment as time goes on. My only complaints would be the ghosts constantly looking like Unity Assets when they spawn in during hunts and most of the player death animations are reused for all ghosts. I want to see a little more variety towards death animations and ghost models to an extent so it actually looks like they've arrived from the darkest pits of the unknown. The ghost models do kinda remind me of the Ghosts from Silent Hill 4 except these ones don't float towards you. But rather run towards you like a flickering zombie which I think looks kinda silly. Other than that, I believe this game has potential to be something more and it really shows. This earns a 10/10 rating and the $20 price tag is worth every penny. If you haven't tried this game before, go ahead and give it a try!

Incredible game. The progression is always keeping you on your toes, letting you unlock new items and badges. You could be the best in the world and still have things to accomplish. It's really one of the only good ghost-hunting games left these days, and oh my GOD is it good. Absolutely worth the money. If someone is scared of horror games this is the way to start. It brings you in, but the jump scares aren't that bad, and over time you get used to it. 10/10. Get it. Please.

Really fun and scary game to play with friends, sadly over time you will get accustomed to the ghost behavior and desensitized to horror and it will become a trivial task unless you challenge yourself with self imposed rules.

This game is a must! It's a recipe for many laughs on multiplayer, and despite a simple premise, it doesn't tire in the slightest. Highly recommend!

Phasmophobia is a captivating cooperative horror game that redefines the ghost-hunting experience. Its atmospheric gameplay keeps players immersed, with each haunted location brimming with eerie details, from dimly lit hallways to the sudden, spine-chilling whispers of an unseen ghost. The game's dynamic ghost behavior and randomized investigations make every session feel fresh and unpredictable, keeping players on their toes as they strategize and work together to gather evidence.
What sets Phasmophobia apart is its emphasis on teamwork and its innovative use of investigative tools like EMF readers, spirit boxes, and UV lights. Whether you're playing on PC or diving into the game’s highly immersive VR mode, the tension and thrill are palpable. With its blend of strategy, suspense, and scares, Phasmophobia is a must-play for anyone seeking a truly unique horror experience. This game is truly amazing!

The first year or so of this game was utterly unbelievable in both enjoyment and accessibility, although I feel that has fallen to the wayside unless you enjoy heavy RP and an excessive amount of trial and error in identifying the now almost 25 types of spirits in the game. Not saying it's bad now, just that my friends and I couldn't come back to this and play casually after a certain point.

Its pretty goofy and funny with friends but its also scary when you play alone, its a good time either way tho

If you're into horror, teamwork, or just screaming with friends — Phasmophobia is a must-play. This game nails the atmosphere like no other. The sound design, lighting, and ghost behavior all work together to create an experience that’s genuinely creepy whether you’re solo or in a group. Playing alone is pure nerve-wracking suspense, while co-op turns into a chaotic, hilarious mess of yelling and last-minute rescues (or betrayals). The devs have been constantly updating the game with new content, smarter ghosts, and better tools, and it just keeps getting better. Every hunt feels different, and every session creates memorable stories. Whether you're a ghost-hunting pro or a total scaredy-cat. Highly recommend. 10/10

Want to hunt ghost but can't afford to irl? You'll probably get sucked into this game!

This game is very fun to play with friends. What's really cool is that it's still in development so you can watch the game get even better as you play it!

I pooped my pants far too many times to say this game is NOT good. i recommend but make sure to be empty.

funny laughing with your friends for the first couple hours then turns into the most boring repetitive slog. Hasn't had any real content updates that add depth or interest to the game in years.

Disconnected Client Timeout literally every game for 3 years from different devices: laptop, PC, xbox, VR. Changing your internet provider doesn't change anything. The developers are showing absolute disrespect for players by not fixing this issue for years. Shame. Very disappointing.

Very creepy game but it's very fun and less scary with friends! Would recommend!!

You don't hunt the ghost, the ghost hunts you. I hate this game. Yes, I'll still play another 1000 hrs of it.

Just such a meh game with so much potential that just feels lost. If you're friends force you to get it, it will be fun for about 10 hours.

This game is over all a fun game to play either by yourself or with a friend/ group of friends. In the limited number of hours that I've played I haven't run into any issues. If you're looking for a game to have a good time and even get funny moments with your friends then look no further.

Game was worth it years ago when it was first publish, however, Phasmophobia has been in the same/similar state for the past year and a half with no sign of significant change or improvement. The development team have been severely lacking in progress and quality updates, adding smaller and less effective contents and events rather than prioritizing the obviously needed updates

- Horror aspect is severely lacking, the devs have plans to update this, however, these plans have been made years ago and no actual progress was made toward them
- Game Mechanics have barely seen any changes making the game severely repetitive in everything
- Devs priorities seem to be focused on Community Events/Holidy Events and Mediocre Content such as random unnecessary UI changes, as well as map touch-ups/changes rather than improving on the main gameplay itself

I am heavily convinced the devs just stopped caring for the development of this game and it's community as a whole.

This is a great game to play if you like horror and have some good friends to scare. This is also a good game to get good at. It took me about 150 hours to completely understand every ghost.

As much as I really like this game I don't think it would be for everyone. The best way I can describe the game in a few would be a spooky game of guess who with extra steps, not to mention you are practically looking for an invisible person so you gotta be patient. You are for sure in need of game knowledge when you play for a longer amount of time.

One of my favorite games, I enjoy it both solo and multiplayer!
Of course, the game gets a bit repetitive when you play a lot, but to me that's part of the reason I like it- you know what to expect, and can endlessly try to hone your skills to complete contracts.
The challenges and possibility to earn badges and achievements is always a good motivator as well!

Phasmophobia takes the classic ghost-hunting concept and brings it to life with a level of immersion and tension that is unmatched. This cooperative multiplayer game lets you and your friends become paranormal investigators, entering haunted locations armed with various ghost-hunting tools in search of spirits. But be warned—this is not your typical ghost-hunting experience.

Atmosphere: 10/10
The atmosphere in Phasmophobia is nothing short of chilling. The dimly lit environments, eerie sound design, and unsettling visuals pull you into a world of paranormal horror. The game’s use of sound to build tension is especially impressive. Every creak, distant whisper, or sudden bang keeps you on edge, making it one of the most immersive horror experiences available.

Gameplay: 9/10
The mechanics of Phasmophobia are surprisingly deep for a horror game. Each ghost behaves differently, and you’ll need to use various tools—such as EMF readers, spirit boxes, and UV lights—to gather evidence and identify the type of spirit haunting the area. The thrill of discovery and the fear of what might happen when you’re left alone with the ghost is a constant tension. The game encourages communication and teamwork, as you and your friends must cooperate to solve the mystery before the ghost becomes hostile.

Multiplayer Fun: 9/10
The multiplayer aspect is where Phasmophobia truly shines. Playing with friends is a blast, especially when things go horribly wrong. The sense of camaraderie and shared fear makes the experience uniquely enjoyable. If you’re looking for a game to play with a group, Phasmophobia offers a perfect balance of cooperative strategy and heart-pounding moments of terror. But, the AI behavior for the ghosts can be unpredictable, keeping you on your toes at all times.

Terror Factor: 10/10
The horror in Phasmophobia isn’t just about jump scares (although there are plenty). It’s about the constant sense of dread and the terrifying unpredictability of the spirits. The ghosts can interact with you in various ways, some becoming aggressive and hunting you down, while others may remain eerily quiet. The game also does a great job of amplifying your fear by using voice recognition to trigger ghost interactions, so speaking can sometimes lead to disastrous results.

Replayability: 8/10
With multiple maps, different ghost types, and varying difficulty levels, Phasmophobia offers plenty of replay value. While the core gameplay loop remains the same, each investigation feels different because of the random nature of the ghosts and the environment. However, the lack of a deeper progression system or major content updates might make some players feel like they've seen everything after a while.

Conclusion:
Phasmophobia is an absolute must-play for fans of horror games, especially those who enjoy multiplayer experiences. The blend of strategic investigation, intense fear, and cooperative gameplay makes it stand out as one of the scariest games on the market. Whether you're teaming up with friends or braving the horrors solo, Phasmophobia offers a truly terrifying and unforgettable experience.

Final Score: 9/10

Its a alright game but one problem I just cant play the game by myself I quite literally get bored playing this unless I play with friends

I love this game. Thanks to this my social life is nearly non existent. i began frying chips from the grease off of my hair as i didn't shower in a week. strongly recommend

For VR: It's just not good, fam. Wonky controls, weird navigation menu. Almost impossible to really get anything done.

so ass. asser than ass. the assest of all asses, more ass than niki minaj , really puts the ass into ass

i went in and said "do something spooky", it did something spooky. beside the point, very fun game, especially with friends

The game is very good and I really enjoy playing it with my friends but one specific thing is very annoying to me, the selection of your items with the mouse wheel. My mouse is working fine but it takes too long to nagivate through your inventory and picking the right item so I would recommend adding an hotbar to the game and selecting your item with keybinds.

Had this game for years but recently picked it back up, love the equipment progression. I was discouraged after losing my old levels when the big update happened and it took me a while to give it another chance, but god this game is addictive.

Loaded into my first game and got plates flinged at me. Its was a demon.
Amazing

Everyone knows when this game was extremely popular everyone on the internet, but is it really good ?

- The gameplay is nice, can get very repetitive, I wouldn't be able to play this game for hours for a few days in a row, I would need breaks. The reason is because it's always the same cycle for each game, grabbing items, finding the room, placing everything there, if you are attacked hide, and leave. Even the weekly challenges don't change much. I wish there would be a difference between locations of different actions to do, but it still is quite fun for a while !

- The graphics are basic, nothing much to say. The animations for the players are very funny though haha

- The soundtrack has nothing to offer, I wish there were some interesting scary musics played throughout the game.

- This game is still very replayable because that's the point, grinding experience and money and finding as many ghosts as possible, it's also very fun when you are playing with friends and you can hear them scream^^

In general, I would say this game deserves the love it is getting, I would recommend it if you have some friends to play with though !

I've waited for years for them to add horror 2.0 - the update they hinted at forever ago. I don't care about all these endless ui reworks - or progression reworks - or slightly different maps. They said in the first timeline of updates posted years ago that soon they'd be releasing horror 2.0, which is, NEW GHOST INTERACTIONS. That's all I have ever cared about. They just posted ANOTHER timeline, changing and updating the journal again, adding new ways to record evidence again, and other random trivial stuff.

Playing a horror game gets boring when they same few things keep happening forever. Still the same hands appear when you die. Still the same weird sequence in a basement plays after death. STILL a few things move, or the same sounds play, or the sink turns on, or the phone rings, etc... It's all the same few "scares" that arent even that scary - without anything new in years.

In one day they could add so many more interesting sounds to play randomly and that would do so much to refresh the same boring and repetitive ghost "interactions". I write jump scares for a game on unity and create new, interesting little scares all the time. How have they not added one in god knows how long? Literally anything to make me feel like I dont know exactly what to expect every game? This game was fun when you didn't know what could happen - but when you realize its the same few, not scary ghost "interactions" it becomes a dull and pointless grind of finding evidence perpetually.

Probably the most fun and interactive co-op game I have played with friends. I would recommend to anyone who is looking for a new game to play with a friend

This game is by far one of the best games I have ever played. I'm not much of a horror fan so when I started playing this game I could barely play for two minutes before getting too scared and turning the game off. Now I play for hours with friends and randoms on the internet and have some of the best gaming experiences I've ever had. It's definitely more of a play with friends game but it is also fun to play solo as well. If you're on the fence about this game jump the fence and go for it. If you think it's too scary for you GO FOR IT. Like I said, this is the most fun I've had with a game in a long time.

There are multiple different ghost types and learning them and all their different quirks and seeing the different maps and various events has been fun, I play this game a lot with my friends and it has been great :GhostScary::GhostScary:😁(it's fun playing with and without friends but it's definitely a lot more fun with them)

10/10 would recommend if you want someone whispering random things in your ear :P

It's fun especially with friends, but you'll develop trust issues (NEVER trust your friends with cursed objects, they will get you killed).

ps. I had a lot of experience in getting ghosted that I excel in ghost hunting.

I absolutely love this game!, bought it to play with my gf and it quickly became one of my favourites, I 100% suggest getting it!

Super Fun Game ! Great to play in a group. love the aspect of gathering evidence and figuring out what ghost you have.

i personally find a few of the maps are a bit to big but this isn't a massive issue as there are so many maps and with each ghost investigation you experience the maps differently every time.

graphics are good i did have an issue with the trees flashing white but this was an easy fix within the video settings.

super fun would recommend to anyone !! had a lot of scares and laughs!

Truly amazing game, the ghost killed my friend, who pee peed when he started hunting, then 5 minutes after the ghost was about to kill me, and he stopped and we both started munting my friend. Truly innovative game bringing up the standards 10/10

The definitive ghost hunting experience. Love playing this in both standard and VR modes. One of my friend's groups go-to games.

A puzzle game with horror elements - a perfect mix of grind and fun! Every ghost hunt feels unique.

It's a great game but my friend was banned by a corrupt Game Developer for an "Offensive Name" when it was a translation of "Vikkyishim" was used as his name in the game. He attempted to appeal his ban, it was immediately denied with "No Appeal" and was banned by their official Discord. Great game, corrupt team.

I used to love Phasmophobia, Literally played it non-stop for the better part of a year when it first was released in early access. The silly and super scary times of those early days really had me on the hook. But lately I feel like the game has taken a direction that's focused on one specific kind of player rather than all kinds of players. The maps feel like they're more so built for looping and chases, which personally I feel makes it harder for new players and non-horror game players to actually enjoy the game. The ghost's AI seem to be a little bit on the sluggish side, since sometimes it takes 20+ minutes to get some of the evidence and the game feels like you need to quite literally study up on every ghost behavior in order to guess the correct ghost. Phasmo is starting to become a game where you can't just pop into the game and just have a good time with friends. It's bordering on the line of being too much of a chore to play rather than letting fun scary times happen. This game is most likely good for players who prefer critical thinking and deduction with the some scares involved.

This game is garbage anymore. Back on launch and for awhile after it the game had this charm to it. Once the youtubers played it to death and formed these uber meta strats on how to figure the ghost out as fast as possible and convinced the devs it was too easy so now ghosts do nothing until its time to hunt you its so boring theres so many types now its bloated. It aint a fun game to play with your buddies its an all out play it by the youtube strat or you wont be figuring the ghost out at all.

this game has a learning curve, but I love being able to play it with friends or even with random lobbies online! its such a great community!

equal parts puzzle and spooky, its a great time!

5/10

Phasmophobia starts off great. The atmosphere is tense, the ghost hunting feels immersive, and the unknown keeps you on edge. But once you learn the patterns, the magic fades.

Endgame boils down to finding the ghost room as fast as possible, throwing down equipment, and waiting. Once you know where it is, the "investigation" turns into a waiting game rather than actual horror. Ghosts stop being threats and become predictable obstacles, and hunts feel more like annoyances than anything else.

After a while, every match feels the same. There’s no real reason to stay longer, no real challenge once you crack the formula. If you’re new, you’ll have fun. If you’re experienced? It’s just a checklist.

Good game. It's super fun with friends, and has consistent improvements. Not much else to say.

Game is awesome and lots of fun. It has great community as well. The devs are committed and it shows by making this such a great game and kg partners make it so welcoming with there lets plays. Big shout out to devs (CJ, Phsyco & others of course) and my favorite phasmo KG partners/content creators Insym, Impulse and hydra!
