One player haunts a spooky mansion as the ghost, turning invisible to stalk up to four ghost hunters and make them faint with a single grab. Sprint for a speed boost that reveals your position, or charge a summon meter to drop drain areas beneath hunters and sap their batteries if they linger. Flashlight beams from hunters stun you, reveal your form, and inflict heavy damage, forcing clever tricks to catch them unaware.
Ghost hunters wield flashlights with finite batteries, grabbing fresh ones to survive alerts of the ghost's approach in the shadows. Team up to corner and kill the ghost, reviving downed allies by shining light on them while guarding against grabs. This casual indie action game suits quick multiplayer sessions where solo players fall fast but groups thrive on coordination.
Haunting Hijinx is a spiritual successor to a classic minigame where one player is a ghost and up to four players are ghost hunters.
Haunt a Spooky Mansion
Concealed by shadow, you will seek to outwit the ghost hunters and make them faint. A single touch is all it takes, but beware their searing lights! You must be clever if you are to catch the fiends off guard.
Your goal is to make all the hunters faint by grabbing them.
You are invisible by default.
Sprint to gain a helpful speed boost at the expense of being visible.
Charge your summon meter to summon a drain area under each hunter. Any hunter that doesn't quickly get away will be defenseless as their battery gets drained.
The hunters' flashlight beams will briefly stun you, make you visible, and deal significant damage.
Join Forces to Corner the Ghost
Each armed with a flashlight, you and your friends will delve into the darkness to hunt down the ghost. Even though you can't see the ghost in the dark, you can sense when it draws near. Stay together; you will not survive alone for long.
Your goal is to kill the ghost by shining your flashlight on it.
Your flashlight has limited battery life. You will need to pick up new batteries over time to keep the ghost at bay.
You will be alerted when the ghost is nearby, though you should be wary of tricks it may play to keep you on edge.
Teamwork is essential. The ghost can easily outmaneuver a lone hunter but will struggle against a coordinated group.
You will faint if the ghost touches you.
Shine your flashlight on a downed hunter for a few moments to revive them. In the meantime, take care that you aren't vulnerable to being grabbed yourself!
