- Like many VR games, Ghost Giant is relatively short but this is a case where the scale of the experience is in sync with its story and characters. Ghost Giant has a solid emotional core that resonates with many people’s experience. It has amusing and appealing characters and a lovely world to explore, and while its puzzles are generally logical, they also are locked by single solutions that frustrate creative thinking. On the whole, Ghost Giant is an excellent story that could only be told in VR.
Mark Steighner · Feb 25, 2020 Reviewed on PC - All that is to say that Quest’s first must-play of 2020 is here. Ghost Giant remains a delicate balance of charm and poignancy; an important story told with the right amount of sensitivity, steeped in the power of VR connection and companionship. Solving its puzzles might present the occasional road bump, but you’ll otherwise be swept up by its marvellous world of miracles and the characters that live in it. And, thanks to Quest, that’s easier to do than ever.
Jamie Feltham · Feb 18, 2020 Reviewed on PCRead full review - Zoink Games has created a fun little VR title. Ghost Giant is an adorable adventure game that would have me smiling pretty often. Depending on what mood you are in, the story could really resonate with you and the classic adventure style puzzle will surely please longtime fans of the genre. While there are some puzzles that left me a little confused and frustrated, they were pretty few and far between. Ghost Giant is a lovely adventure puzzle title that will provide a joyful romp for many PSVR owners.
Grant Huff · May 20, 2019 Reviewed on PS4Read full review - Overall, Ghost Giant is not about great gameplay – the object-manipulation tasks are standard VR fare and only really serve to move the narrative forward. But oh, the narrative. The trials and tribulations of Louis and the rest of the denizens of little Sancourt will tug at your heartstrings and leave you thinking about them long after playing. Strap on your PSVR headset and definitely check Ghost Giant out, but be prepared to stop and wipe your eyes more than once.
Patrick Anderson · May 18, 2019 Reviewed on PS4Read full review - Ghost Giant's fun puzzles and lovely story are well worth experiencing for anyone who may have access to PSVR.
Samuel Guglielmo · Apr 30, 2019 Reviewed on PS4Read full review - Ghost Giant is one of those unique must-play VR experiences that effectively demonstrates just what VR can do that traditional screens can’t. It’s a game that effectively makes you feel a strong bond and connection with its world and its characters. It deftly weaves between humor and deep emotion, elation and sadness. It’s not a difficult game, but that’s not the point. Ghost Giant wants you to play in its world, but also engage with its heart. It’s a beautiful experience that really highlights what not just VR, but games overall, are all about.
Chandler Wood · Apr 12, 2019 Reviewed on PS4Read full review - Ghost Giant isn't revolutionary. It feels like a VR advancement of a classic PC point-and-click adventure game, albeit one with a great look, phenomenal sound design, and a story I'm not ashamed to admit had me choking up a bit toward the end. You won't be blown away by the immersion here, but it's fun to interact with the dollhouse-like sets and just sort of goof around. Like a lot of VR titles, Ghost Giant is a shorter experience, but it's a solid one that tells a charming story in a vibrant and colorful world.
Rich Meister · Apr 11, 2019 Reviewed on PS4Read full review - Ghost Giant may look like just another VR object-based puzzle-playground from the outside, but its charming world and beautiful story tugged on my heartstrings in a way I wasn't expecting. Considering its only three or four hours long, itâs a PSVR game worth making time for.
Mike Epstein · Apr 11, 2019 Reviewed on PS4Read full review - Still, Ghost Giant is an instant PSVR classic. It tells a uniquely human story with non-humans at the helm. The art style is immaculate and beautiful in nearly every way, giving testament to the creators’ vision of a world that is alive and breathing. And let’s not forget about the fact that this game is just straight up adorable in every aspect.
Ben Smith · Apr 10, 2019 Reviewed on PS4Read full review - A wonderful mix of cutting edge technology and nuanced storytelling that instantly becomes one of the best games for PlayStation VR.
