About Ghost Trick: Détective fantôme

Ghost Trick: Détective fantôme is a quirky, puzzle-packed mystery classic presented here in a polished HD remaster. It opens with a single gunshot ringing out in a dark city, but where one life ends, the real story begins. Sissel awakens as a ghost, discovering that he has lost not only his life but his memory, left to wonder who he is, who killed him and why. With only a handful of hours until sunrise and oblivion, he must unravel the mystery of his own murder, beginning with a detective who may have witnessed the crime.

The heart of the game lies in the powers of the dead. As Sissel, you possess and manipulate objects and even rewind time, using these abilities to work through brainteasing puzzles woven into a story brimming with offbeat humour and charming characters. This action-adventure blends detective intrigue with inventive, physics-minded problem solving.

Directed by Shu Takumi, creator of the Ace Attorney series, this long-awaited remaster of Ghost Trick: Phantom Detective upgrades both visuals and sound. New music arrangements by Great Ace Attorney composer Yasumasa Kitagawa are synchronized with the original tracks so you can switch between them at any time, and a new gallery collects artwork and music. Billed as the ultimate version of the classic, it is a standout puzzle adventure for PC.
