About the Game

After the eccentric collector Oliver O. Hubert met his unexpected end, all he could ask for in his afterlife was to rest peacefully with his esteemed collection of wares... Yet a new museum is opening in his old mansion, featuring all of his things! There's no way Ollie will let such insolence continue. It's time to take back what's rightfully his! Let the Geist Heist begin!

Master your Ghostly Powers:

  • Possess various objects around the museum

  • Utilize the objects to sneak past guards

  • Remain unseen by the security staff

  • Use your wits and creativity to evade their grasps

  • Carefully time puzzles and interactions to avoid being caught

Enter the Museum:

  • Explore the newly renovated museum that you once called home

  • Make your way through the wings of the museum

  • Discover the library, kitchen, and bedroom exhibits

  • Listen to the Intercom and Oliver O. Hubert's colorful commentary

Once a Collector, Always a Collector:

  • Obtain your most prized possessions at the end of each wing

  • Hide your treasures inside a massive globe

  • Find wearable hats throughout the wings

  • Complete additional challenges to obtain more stylish options

  • Escape the museum with everything you've collected

Using your powers of possession, travel through the wings of the museum one by one, collecting a special belonging at the end of each one. And remember: don't get caught!
