Our take on Bureau of Contacts
The bounce point arrives when ghost encounters begin responding to spoken words and context. Players who prefer silent input or fixed enemy patterns may find the behavior system demanding, since tactics can shift according to what agents say and do during an investigation.
What is Bureau of Contacts?
Bureau of Contacts is a ghost-hunting game for 1–4 players.
Teams investigate cursed locations while dealing with both the environment and ghosts whose behavior changes in response to players’ actions and spoken words. Ghosts can see, hear, speak, interpret context, and react according to different temperaments. Each session uses distinct environments, supernatural threats, and traps. Players can work together, confront ghosts alone, or face betrayal from other Bureau agents. Investigation and defensive equipment, magic spells, and exorcism rituals support paranormal encounters. Character progression includes trading, item storage, experience, rewards, and achievements. Players can study different ghosts and phenomena before attempting to counter them.
