Ghost Town delivers an immersive blend of narrative exploration and smart, varied puzzles with strong atmosphere, solid visuals, and a compelling 1980s London setting, though its limited interactivity, lack of Spanish voice acting, and short length may disappoint those seeking a longer or more expansive VR experience.

This is VR done exceptionally well! The visuals are crisp and high quality which draws you into the world to start with. The audio compliments those visuals perfectly by giving you a great mix of atmospheric noises along with fantastic voice acting and compelling music. The puzzles are challenging enough to make you think but not so obscure that you get frustrated. You can actually feel empathy for the spirits you save and seeing their stories play out in front of you is quite moving at times. An absolute must buy if you like a bit of paranormal puzzling.

Ghost Town is a great VR game. It is immersive, captivating, and a joy to play. The puzzles are interesting and the plot, characters, and setting will blow you away. A thoroughly impressive experience.

Honestly, the game doesn't hold a candle to their previous masterpiece, 'The Room, A Dark Matter.' The game was just not immersive enough for me nor was it even long enough to be worth the asking price.

It's not a stretch to say that Ghost Town is one of the best VR games so far this year. Fireproof Games has delivered a worthy spiritual successor to The Room VR: A Dark Matter that employs a similarly strong level of VR interactivity, backed up by great visuals on Quest 3, a thoroughly engrossing supernatural narrative and intuitive puzzles. I do wish the journey lasted just a little longer, but what's here is an essential experience that you won't want to miss.

Ghost Town is one of the best adventures with puzzles that you can enjoy right now on Meta Quest. Its esoteric touch and great atmosphere, which don't look for player's jump scares, along with its enjoyable gameplay and puzzles, make it a must for fans of the genre, although it does suffer from being quite short.

Still, the bits of level you ARE meant to interact with are as high-quality as ever. [Issue#411, p.121]
