iOS (iPhone/iPad) Critic Reviews

It's fun, good-natured and interesting, but just below the surface, all it is really interested in is squeezing some begrudgingly offered dollars from your pocket.

Ghostbusters is a surprisingly entertaining romp through our childhood, and a great way to pass the time. More so than ever, busting makes us feel good.

There are tons of enemies to take down, and they're all goofy and just a touch creepy. The game's events are fun to follow thanks to decent writing, and even Slimer makes an appearance without getting up in anyone's face with stupid antics. If you ain't afraid of no ghost, give Ghostbusters a try. Alternatively, you can just fire up your old NES Ghostbusters game. Horrifying!

Ghostbusters is one of the best freemium games around with some great real time strategy gameplay that is made for everyone to enjoy. Ghostbusters offers so much content to dive into making it a should have.

Though it may be hard to believe, Beeline may have found the perfect way to distill the Ghostbusters experience into iOS game form. The fact that it is completely free and fun to boot makes it an even heartier download recommendation. So, who you gonna call? It should definitely be these guys.

Ghostbusters captures the charm of the movies, but the freemium aspect leaves a little to be desired.

Ghostbusters does a good job in recreating the atmosphere of the movie and delivers an immediate and fun experience.

There's always the feeling at the back of your mind that the game is a little over-complicated. Ironically, it's because it's so well presented and fun that you can't help thinking how much more fun a simple balls-to-the-wall blast fest would've been. The agency building template, like my trousers from ten years ago, just doesn't seem to be the most natural fit.

A spook-tacular recreation of the Ghostbusters world, let down by dodgy spook-snatching and no-mark characters.

The free-to-play design elements may hold some players back from completing the game, but it is clear the developers have a lot of love in their homage to the Ghostbusters films.
