About this game

Ghost Hunt is a top-down maze-chasing game inspired by the classic dot-collecting arcade formula. Players guide their character through each maze, clearing all the dots while avoiding four roaming ghosts.

Touching a ghost costs one of three lives. Power-pills temporarily let the player defeat the ghosts, while collecting a dollar sign awards bonus points. Clearing a maze also grants an extra life before progressing to the next one.
