Ghosts

Ghosts is a chess-like board game about a war between two factions of ghosts. You command an army of 15 ghosts and try to eliminate the opposing army. Choose how many ghosts to send onto the battlefield and where to move them, thinking quickly as you play.

Multiplayer

Once two players are in a lobby, the game starts automatically. The lobby creator takes the first turn and commands the green ghosts. You can create a public lobby for anyone to join, create a private one and share its password with a friend, or join a random existing lobby. Players on PC can also play against players using the Android version.

Taking turns

Each player has 20 seconds to make a move; if time runs out, they lose their turn. You can skip three turns, but skipping a fourth means defeat. To move, open tower windows to select ghosts, then confirm to send one ghost from each opened window to the first positions. Once at least one ghost is outside, use the scythe to choose a direction for all your outside ghosts and confirm the move.

Winning the battle

Avoid black smoke and jump onto an opponent’s position to defeat them. Jumping to an opponent’s tower window kills all the enemy ghosts inside and sends your ghost back to your own tower. Eliminate all enemy ghosts to win.
