Gastly GARDENING - Uninvited

I love how in so many horror games and movies, the first instinct is to commit as many crimes as humanly possible once under minor duress. *"Oh no, I can't find my sister. Let me open this person's mail, steal a gift, break into their home, pick up everything not nailed down and melt an old lady"*

[@garuelx8627]

Things I remember in this game that the Grumps can use: 1) open books 2) Remember the foyer with the chair that had something hard sewn inside? If only you had something sharp to cut it out... 3) you can eat, drink or equip items by doing USE>[item]>SELF. Most of those items will kill you but that's part of the fun! 4) In the room with the chill, there's a Ruby in the desk drawer. If you manage to pick it up, get rid of it ASAP! 5) IIRC, the ghost servant can't be destroyed, but he will obey the Master. If only you had some items that made you look and smell like him...

[@carlotta4th]

These seem like good, nonspoilery hints. Well done!

[@TheMerryMagpie]

Nice! I saw the open option and was like, "open the book" and they just, took it with them. XD

[@SyncSeiryuu]

I would actually like to see them continue to play this game. It looks like a decent game, and they seemed to have fun playing it. It doesn't look too hard, and it's I think it's just interesting enough to keep people entertained. They can even just look up a walkthrough if they get stuck. I dunno why they wouldn't want to continue this. Are they in a rush to try every game in existence?

[@archvile9388]

I see you're new to classic adventure games. These games are absolutely not easy. They love to have puzzles that either require ridiculous leaps of logic or just make no sense whatsoever and can only really be solved by trying everything, blind luck, or just looking up the answer. For example, in this game, to get rid of the servant ghost you have to show him the spider they caught which scares him away. No the game never so much as hints that the servant suffers from arachnophobia. And this is even the easier version of the game. In the original Mac version the evil of the house is slowly possessing you and if you take to long to beat it (and the time limit is very strict) you lose. And this isn't even as bad as they could get. Just look up Sierra's classic games to see how much worse it could be. Oh Mordack how many times did you teleport in out of nowhere to force choke me to death?

[@samusx2175]

@@archvile9388 Exactly. Shadowgate was more forgiving, but not by much. Zojoi definitely has some strange puzzle logic games. I've beaten this game a couple of times, but only while looking at a walkthru to get past parts I got stuck at the first time.

[@kouheicoppola2157]

There's actually a very funny scene involving a spider the size of a car

[@MegaOctobot]

@@archvile9388 I feel like it wouldn't be as bad if it'd come out a few years when they learned that letting you pick up everything makes it way too confusing. Also I thought they were doing pretty well though there's definitely a few things that would eat up a couple episodes.

[@MoeChicken]

Awww...the phrase you never want to hear in a game you like: "This is a one-off." I suspected it might be when I didn't see an episode number in the tags, but maybe they'll continue it? It's so enjoyable to watch someone solve puzzles in a game you really like. I'm also very impressed that Arin didn't get caught by the No-Ghost trap. Not surprised he didn't figure out that you have to open a bowl to see fruit in it, though. These games could be a bit obtuse at times. Minor shill: If they do in fact keep this a one-off and you want to see the rest of it, I did a playthrough on my channel. Not as good, maybe, but you'll see the whole thing. Also, if you want to play this game, it was released for modern consoles as a part of the 8-Bit Adventure Anthology. The re-release contains Shadowgate and Deja Vu as well.

[@Queen1midas]
