Fireproof Games, known for their stellar work on “The Room: A Dark Matter,” has just rolled out their latest VR creation, GHOST TOWN. This new title already promises to be another hit, given the high bar set by their previous endeavors into the world of puzzling VR narratives.
Currently, avid gamers can dive into Ghost Town using Quest 2 and Quest 3 headsets, with plans for the game’s expansion to PC VR and PSVR 2 later this year. Interestingly, while the game diverges from the beloved Room series, it continues to hone in on what Fireproof does best: intricate puzzles and compelling storytelling.
While Ghost Town taps into themes of the supernatural world, Fireproof shies away from labeling it as a ‘horror’ game. Instead, they’ve chosen to craft a captivating atmosphere filled with suspense and mystery, which serves to enrich the players’ journey through the puzzles.
With nearly four years in the making, Fireproof is incredibly proud of Ghost Town, claiming it marks a significant leap forward for the studio. This includes bringing a cast of fully motion-captured characters to the forefront, which is a new venture for them.
Already, the game is winning accolades for its impressive visual quality, even on Quest devices. Its immersive environment transports players straight to the gritty streets of 1980s London, a setting that beautifully complements the game’s overall tone.
For those eager to get their hands on it, you can access Ghost Town right now on Quest 2, Quest 3, and Quest 3S for $30. As for the PC VR and PSVR 2 versions, we’ll have to stay tuned for an official drop date, but excitement is certainly building.
