Ghost Trick is an essential, engrossing puzzle game.
A murder mystery in the form of a puzzle game, Ghost Trick: Phantom Detective, from creator Shu Takumi , stars a dead person who routinely says things like"Come to think of it, the desk lamp is right" after talking to a possessed inanimate object. And the lamp was right! In the world of Ghost Trick, even a light source can help you crack your case.
Our recently deceased amnesiac hero, Sissel, has just been told he can travel four minutes into the past to prevent a young woman from getting shot by a nearsighted assassin using a mixture of bicycles, flags, and old guitars—just so she can get shot again somewhere else. And Sissel will save her life then, too. And again after that.
Instead of the usual mystery's selection of keys to find, scrawled notes to read, and people to interrogate, you instead use your ghostly powers to possess everything from umbrellas to telephones to change the lives of the unfairly doomed in the final crucial moments before their deaths. Doing so puts you on the path to reveal the many, many secrets behind your own death.
Ghost Trick's cast-iron internal logic saves this time-twisting weirdness from descending into a supernatural mess. The script takes the time to directly answer questions like"If I can possess things, then why can't I just possess my own corpse and walk out of here?" early on, and then goes on to pre-empt all the other"Hey, why can't I…" situations that pop up afterwards.
Another truly elegant bit of puzzle design in Ghost Trick: I can't examine or manipulate anything that isn't going to be useful. It's one of those small details that makes a huge difference, because no matter how strange Ghost Trick gets—andis this a deliciously odd game—I'm never left grouchily hopping from one ridiculous object to another, wondering what the hell I'm supposed to do with a fridge and a blender.
