Phasmophobia Review-In-Progress: Frighten Your Senses
- Phasmophobia is a 4-player online co-op, psychological horror VR game that aims to hunt ghosts with friends on Steam and PlayStation VR2.
- As a paranormal investigator, players need to explore haunted houses, gather evidence of the type of entity you are dealing with, and escape with your life if you can.
- The game has a solid offering of 13 maps, a level cap of 100, and a bevy of ghosts, wraiths, and entities to classify, providing dozens of hours of gameplay.
- Phasmophobia delivers effective scares when you're completely immersed, and there is an eerie feeling when something is whispering in your ear.
- Using your tool belt to grab your items makes it easier to know exactly what to do in the heat of the moment.
- The game can be played in solo mode or co-op mode, and the level of horror can be either serious or comedic depending on the players' preferences.
- Phasmophobia has a slew of common accessibility features for players of all kinds, including left-handed and seated modes, artificial stick-based locomotion or teleportation options, among others.
- The feature of choosing between holding or toggling to grab items and doors is also available.
- As a review-in-progress, the review will be updated once any major update is available or if there are significant overhauls in the future.
- Phasmophobia is a highly enjoyable experience with friends, but it's a tough sell as a single player game and has janky mechanics that are heightened by the make-believe recreation of haunted houses.
