Play Ghostbusters (usa, Europe) Online

I first played Ghostbusters on the Sega Master System, a version published by Sega that came out in the late 80s. It was one of many games trying to capture the spirit of the movie on home consoles, and it had its own particular feel compared to the versions on other systems.

You control one of the Ghostbusters, viewed from overhead as you drive the Ecto-1 around a map of New York. Your main goal is to earn enough money to stop Gozer's return, which means catching ghosts to collect bounties. The core loop involves driving to haunted buildings, then switching to a side-view screen where you use your proton pack to trap ghosts; you have to manage your ghost bait and carefully position your trap. Money is constantly spent on equipment and car repairs, creating a tense race against the clock before the final confrontation at the Temple of Zuul. The game moves at a brisk pace and the financial pressure makes even small mistakes costly. It feels like a frantic scramble to keep your business afloat while saving the city.
