Play Extreme Ghostbusters - Code Ecto-1 (e)(eurasia) Online

Extreme Ghostbusters: Code Ecto-1 was a Game Boy Advance title released in 2004, developed by Magic Pockets and published by Cognito. It arrived during a period when the handheld was saturated with licensed games, many attempting to capture the feel of their source material with varying degrees of success. This one was based on the short-lived animated series, bringing its newer team of Ghostbusters to a portable format.

You control one of the four new recruits, guiding them through side-scrolling levels viewed from an isometric perspective. Your main goal is to clear each area of supernatural threats, using your proton pack to blast ghosts and capture them. The gameplay involves screen-by-screen exploration, searching for keys to unlock doors and navigating environmental hazards. The pacing is methodical, with a moderate difficulty that comes from managing your limited energy and aiming your proton stream accurately. It feels like a straightforward action game where careful movement is just as important as firing your weapon.
