### 3/5 — Generally a fun game

*2024-10-17*

Overall the game is actually decently fun, I love how the AR works and I love how (some) of the ghosts have good art styles. However, I got stuck on one of the missions and I couldn’t get past it. The “Rest in Pieces” mission needs to be worked on. Because it did not matter where I walked, no matter how I was positioned, the statue just would not align properly at all. If I aligned the feet perfectly the head torso and arms would not align, and if I aligned the head torso and arms properly, the legs wouldn’t align properly. I tried going left, right, in front of it, behind it, nothing worked no matter what I did. So I heavily request that the mission “Rest in Pieces” be worked on to where the statue can actually align with the pieces properly.

### 4/5 — It’s not that bad

*2024-08-27*

I love playing this game but when I go somewhere I can’t play while I’m on the road a update or feature where you can play in the car or maybe even have a gunner seat would be helpful, we also need a way to connect to other players near you ( near as in in that same room ) also a way lower difficulty

### 3/5 — My legs hurt from terror unleashed help

*2024-05-21*

On the terror unleashed part I could barely walk because of the constant dogging in it. I would hope that you could make the dogging less constant and make it were there is less running. Please fix this my legs hurt and I really want to get back to playing the game. Btw I still haven’t beat terror unleashed.

### 3/5 — I need more ghost ..

*2024-05-04*

Like I like these game but to be honest I miss ghostbusters world soo bad … I still don’t understand why they took it off .. the platform people miss that game and am one of them … don’t get me wrong I like these one but idk the other one it wass more of what ur going up against and then here is like by chapters … I really wish they bring back ghostbusters world … that’s my wish I want ghostbusters world back .

### 4/5 — There’s a huge problem with terror unleashed

*2024-04-09*

It is super hard I haven’t even been there till this day. Maybe I’m not fast enough or something but the attacks are super fast. I just don’t like it. I mean I do get some hits and by the way I’m talking about the first terror dog we see not the second I don’t even know if there is a Second terror dog because I haven’t beaten it.

### 4/5 — And where is slimer?

*2024-03-27*

I hope that there was a slimer but it’s the afterlife ghostb there wasn’t a slimer there when I watched but that’s why there isn’t a slimer so but the frozen empire ghostBusters slimer appear there so I want you to know if you can make that if you can make a frozen empire  ghostBusters one I would see all the ghost from that movie and see that slimer one the ghosts from frozen empire ghostbusters looked really cool by the way and like it

### 4/5 — Pls add frozen empire ghosts and customization for gear and character

*2024-02-29*

plsss bro ghostbusters word sunsetted and i love that game its my childhood favorite so when i found this game i was excited too! So it only had few ghosts so im asking you is you could add frozen empire ghost and costomization pls for those who agree with make this review helpful!

### 5/5 — This Is Something Good For A Come Back

*2024-02-20*

I love how when the new updates are that when they make things free for the episodes but even though I bought the whole pack so would we get refund for people who bought the pack but otherwise still good that it is now free and you can get extra things like watching video to get like extra proton boost and a tracker and I hope there would be a ghostbuster frozen empire in this game but over all still a good game.

### 3/5 — Fun decent AR game but with severe cost  problem

*2024-02-18*

The worst aspect to this game is spending money to unlock the other episodes after the first two However you recently released an update that made all the episodes free but I unlocked episodes with money before in a previous version so you basically forced people to pay money only to make everything free meaning that we spent money for nothing and it’s gone for good

Word of advice if you want to make an update like this for players do it a lot sooner

### 5/5 — Best ar game if you’ve seen the movie

*2024-01-26*

Ok so I am a fan of ghostbusters so I got the ar game but one sad problem you have to pay to play the onley one that was free was muncher mania so my dad got me all the levels my faivorute psl were episode 4 and 5 but onley dounload if you have seen the movie

### 4/5 — Best game

*2023-10-06*

After the game open then loads it then says something went wrong so i pressed the “ok” button and it said it again.
Whats happened???

### 3/5 — OK

*2023-09-16*

It was good. I played it for two months but then it got boring and I was running out of storage so I deleted it.

### 3/5 — Fix the game

*2023-08-29*

Okay, so this game is been out for like a few years and ever since the 2022. I’ve had the same problem and it’s like the docking doesn’t work. I tduck and I still get attacked sometimes I even throw my phone on the ground so it’s facing the floor and I still get here but sometimes I don’t can you please fix this issue because I cannot beat levels when I’m ducking

### 4/5 — Just one Sad Problem 🗿

*2023-08-18*

I really like the game it’s fun and free but the only flaw is that you have to pay to play 😡

### 4/5 — Please get rid of this puzzle

*2023-08-09*

I was having lots of fun, catching ghosts, having lots of fun until the statue puzzle it kept glitching out. My house is just not big enough. Please get rid of this puzzle. It keeps glitching out and it’s just not fun anymore please if you do, I will gift us a five star game.

### 3/5 — Help fix this pls

*2023-08-05*

It keeps on kicking me off

### 3/5 — Won’t let me play whole game.

*2023-05-30*

Why is the whole game locked behind a paywall? Why won’t you let us play the whole game fro free? Answer back asap!

### 5/5 — AR is my new favorite

*2023-04-10*

Can’t get past how much my we loved this game - kept my family occupied an hour or 2 and they wouldn’t stop talking about it after!

### 5/5 — Updates?

*2023-04-05*

Do you guys plan on extending this game adding more characters to catch? 
The game seems to be getting stuck once you pass it all. 
Any answers would be greatly appreciated.

### 1/5 — Getting Ads on purchased episodes.

*2024-03-15*

I purchased all the episodes a year ago, and with your new update where the episodes are free to play for all, I am getting ads on episodes for which I paid. When I purchased the game, the original purchase
agreement included the game to be add free. I love the game, but I don’t think it’s right for me to have to view ads on something for which I already paid.

### 1/5 — Disappointed

*2022-04-21, version 1.4*

I was able to purchase the season for my son cause he really loves ghostbusters however, a day or two after purchasing the season’s that I payed for disappeared. I tried to restore the purchase and it says there is no purchase history which is absolutely incorrect. I wish there was a way I can either get my money back or get my season’s restored. I’m highly disappointed. I even tried to purchase again and now it wouldn’t allow me to.

### 1/5 — Bought the additional episodes not working

*2022-04-19*

Bought the additional episodes and I cannot play the next levels. It is driving my 6 year old crazy as he really wants his ghost friends.

### 1/5 — The first AR puzzle spawned at adult height so my kid can’t play

*2022-03-26*

I’m 163cms tall and I was trying to balance an iPad in one hand while leaning backwards awkwardly against the side of a kitchen bench and holding one arm with the iPad out to the left and trying to complete the puzzle with my right hand and it was just rediculous and impossible an activity for an adult, let alone a child to do.

My 7 year old loved the first Ghostbusters game we found in the App Store so much and we were sad to see it go. So many fond memories of that game.

At least we could play it together like Pokémon Go. Oh well, I wish everyone better luck with this game than we had….

### 1/5 — Not worth your time, even if you’re a diehard fan.

*2022-02-04, version 1.3.1*

It’s a buggy, cash grabbing mess. The previous AR Ghostbusters game, Ghostbusters World, was much better than this before it got shut down. They should make the episodes free and put in in-game purchases. Paying to play just a measly 4 or 5 more episodes up to Gozer is just a pathetic cash grab. I love every piece of Ghostbusters Media, but this is one thing I recommend taking a pass on.

### 1/5 — Crashing!

*2022-01-18*

On terror dog the game crashes every time the music on the news pops up

### 1/5 — Bug

*2022-01-07*

I downloaded the game and tried to play the free mode “somethings coming” But when I tried to play it, it came up with an ad and then immediately crashed. I thought it was just a one time thing but it kept crashing every time I tried. This seems like a super fun game but please fix it.

### 1/5 — I wish It Would Of Worked

*2021-12-15, version 1.2.1*

I downloaded the game the day it came out, and have continued trying since then on multiple devices. Everytime I open the game up it crashes on all devices. I know it’s not my new iPhone it’s brand new and tons of storage, not my iPad newish and lots of storage, not my internet have the highest speed internet out there. I’d really like to play this game and have tried downloading and playing it several times, but always crashes. Why guys?

### 1/5 — Great game if I could buy the season pass

*2021-12-08, version 1.2.1*

Got this for my son as he’s been really into Ghostbusters. Cool interactive game, fun ghosts and some interaction. Well done but when I try to buy him the season pass (or additional episodes) it goes to the “Ask for parents permission” screen, I click ask and it just gets stuck on “loading” and I never get a request. I tried it on the iPad and iPhone and neither worked. I purchased on my own device in order to share with him (I have family purchase sharing on). I was able to get ask for permission working again but I’m still not able to share the season pass purchase. I believe the developers need to activate that permission (it works for me on other app purchases). If this can be fixed it’s def. Worth 5 stars if you’re a Ghostbusters fan

### 1/5 — Black Screen

*2021-12-05*

Upon opening the app it just giving a black screen. iPhone 11 Pro

### 5/5 — Im my moms son and I like the game so much

*2024-11-07*

So overall I really like it I am a ghostbusters fan and I am so into ghostbusters but I never knew what ghostbusters was at the time and when I first watched ghostbusters my eyes were glued to the screen I only watched ghostbusters afterlife but soon I started seeing ghostbusters again and I love it so over all pretty good stuff movies and games and everything else so over all a good game I beat the game on my phone so I’m on my moms phone so a good game I say

### 5/5 — Car,and multiplayer

*2024-08-12*

I love playing this game but when I go somewhere I can’t play while I’m on the road a update or feature where you can play in the car or maybe even have a gunner seat would be helpful, we also need a way to connect to other players near you ( near as in in that same room)

### 5/5 — GET THIS GAME NOW!!!!

*2024-07-31*

I downloaded this game and it is amazing.All the levels are now free.this game is fantastic so get it now and don’t waste time on other ghostbusters games.play this

### 5/5 — Its really good!

*2024-07-21*

I almost finished it its just that i wished that there was an update that theres a chapter about the frozen empire

### 5/5 — The frozen empire

*2024-05-12*

I love this game so much when I beaten gozer I was excited btw oh yeah i was wondering since ghostbusters frozen empire is out I was wondering if you can make a update for it it would be lot of fun to catch slimer

### 5/5 — Fantastic but pls add more ghost

*2024-04-14*

This game is great! I am a ghostbusters nut (fan) and this game made me a real ghostbuster but it needs more ghost because frozen empire just came out can’t you edit it to add garraka or slimer because it is a very short adventure.  

But on the other hand  this game is great

### 5/5 — Best ghostbusters game ever

*2024-03-31*

I love that this game is based around Ghostbusters afterlife movie. I want more ghosts can be in this game you can make it like fnaf ar because I had fun with that game too all I want is more ghosts and new things too

### 5/5 — Great game but pricey

*2024-03-16*

Very good game I love ghostbusters! But even after ghostbusters afterlife this game is still a little pricey. I mean 2 dollars every episode? Still, if you don’t own a media quest or a ps vr 2, or a ghostbusters game, this app is the next best thing.

### 5/5 — Episodes

*2024-03-02*

Love this game :) , but the update unlocking all levels hasn’t worked :(

### 5/5 — I love this game

*2024-02-28*

THE BEST GAME
