Look, if you had one shot or one opportunity

To seize everything you ever wanted in one moment

Would you capture it or just let it slip?

A time capsule from 2010 was unearthed too early by accident and they found Ghostwire: Tokyo in it. A barren collectathon wasteland in which both the main and side mission have you fight a wide range of supernatural entities like checks notes a bald faceless guy in a suit, a fat bald faceless guy with a suit, a faceless woman in a suit, a headless child in a school uniform (a kind of suit) and a blanket with holes in it for eyes. Sometimes a big woman in a trench coat tries to gut you wide open with scissors.

I can’t really hate on it too much though. What it lacks in gameplay it makes up in soul. It has a unique atmosphere I can’t say I’ve seen anywhere else. Neon lit Tokyo night streets are sombre and beautiful, inhabited primarily by floating ghosts that have forgotten who they are. Passing beside them, you'll often hear them plead for help: ‘’Did I leave the stove on ?’’ or ‘’ I have to feed my cat’’. I enjoyed that. If you can stomach the brain-dead gameplay and you have a knack for digital tourism give it a chance.
