Best Indie Game 2018 - Rue Morgue Magazine Excellence in Narrative 2019 (Honorable Mention) - Independent Games Festival Have you ever wanted to have deep, meaningful conversations with a smoldering poltergeist who terrorizes rich men in Vegas? How about a ghost dog looking for his owner? Or maybe you'd rather rob a bank? Ghosts are into all sorts of things. Part horror, part comedy, and kinda sorta heartbreaking, Speed Dating for Ghosts is a game like no other about finding companionship and closure in the afterlife. Meet more than a dozen ghosts of oh so many backgrounds, genders, and time periods, drawn in a minimalist style to complement the wide range of conversations these wayward souls bring to the table. Learn how each ghost died, as well as how they lived, then help them find peace... if they like you enough to open up first. Based on what you say and how you say it, some dates may turn ugly. Not everyone gets along, even in the afterlife. For the first time on iOS, you can date Gary, Hattie, Kyo, and so many other spooky customers on the bus, on the couch, in a library, wherever you take your device!
