Overview
About this game
Making friends in the afterlife is a little different.
You play as a lonely ghost with the power to possess the living. Surrounded by Oomans who cannot see you, you must use this power to steer them into comically fatal accidents and an early friendship, freeing the friendly ghosts within them. Each level is a puzzle diorama, styled after classic children's stop-motion cartoons, where you have to figure out how to make all the friends using the available hazards.
Every Ooman you ghost will add you on LiveBurial, the afterlife's hottest social media app. The posts of your newly deceased friends give you a unique look at the dysfunctional, hyper-consumerist world of the living through the lens of a social media-obsessed afterlife.
Key Features
