Ghostbusters

Even Better Than The Real Thing

IT PROMISED BUMPER-TO-BUMPER ACTION AND ALL THE THRILLS OF A REAL-LIFE TABLE BUT ADVANCED PINBALL SIMULATOR DIDN’T EXACTLY TILT IN THAT DIRECTION. EVEN SO, IF YOU GO WITH THE FLOW, THIS GAME BY THE OLIVER TWINS IS STILL WORTH A SHOT. LET’S DISCOVER HOW IT WAS DEVELOPED

IN A GAME FILLED WITH HORROR CLICHÉS, THIS ONE NATURALLY BEGINS ON A DARK AND STORMY NIGHT, WHEN A COUPLE OF KIDS ENTER AN ABANDONED MANSION. JOIN US AS WE TOO STEP INSIDE THE SPLATTERHOUSE – AND IF YOU’RE FEELING FAINT, JUST KEEP REPEATING, “IT’S ONLY A VIDEOGAME… ONLY A VIDEOGAME…”
