Our take on Der Geisterjäger / The Ghost Hunter
Instead of pairing dungeon exploration with a party, this RPG centers on one mech and makes tactical survival the main structure. First-person scanning, wireframe presentation, and frequent encounters against superior numbers replace the genre’s more common fantasy-party format.
What is Der Geisterjäger / The Ghost Hunter?
Pilot a single mech through a dungeon in a dying science-fiction world after a corporate squad disappears while pursuing an unknown assailant.
Explore tunnels from a first-person view, search for useful items, inspect surroundings for story details, and place navigation markers. Combat is turn-based, with encounters often putting one character against several security robots or mechs. Analyze opponents, select suitable weapons, manage movement, stance, and flanks, and decide when to withdraw. Repair stations upgrade the robotic combat suit, abilities, and weapons. Blueprints let players adjust resistances and weaknesses, while combat and suit analysis improve the pilot’s field performance. A wireframe scanner-style visual treatment and electronic soundtrack present the underground setting.
