This game is, as its name suggests, about ghosts, spooks and ghouls.

It is similar in style to the now well known Manic Miner and Roland in Time, and although the graphics aren't as good, it is very enjoyable, challenging and difficult.

You, the Pac-Man style player, have to run along jumping up to high platforms or falling to lower platforms.

To make it a bit harder there is a ghost or three to prevent you from reaching your house (at the top of the screen), these ghosts start above you somewhere, then randomly, and slowly (at first) make their way down towards you until they reach you, in which case you lose a life. You start with five, but don't be disheartened, you do have a chance; only slight though. Halfway up the screen is a gold ring and if you reach this before you get hit by a ghost, you destroy all the ghosts on the screen, and so can continue at your leisure, although you shouldn't take too long or your time (which starts at 99) runs out and, you guessed it, you lose a life.

If you are good enough, you can get your name on the high score table which holds up to eight.

This is a very good game and should keep you spooked for many hours.
