About the Game

An engaging story with a touch of humor

In a world where humans have turned into ghosts, Linda seeks to understand what happened with the help of her friends… or maybe her enemies?
Twists and turns put each character face-to-face with the greatest challenge: confronting the fear of moving forward.
Will the ghosts succeed?

Choose from 6 playable characters

Linda – nerves on edge
Josh – the watchful police officer
Mikael – the man who just needs a cup of coffee
Kid – the cheerful child who lives in a fantasy world
Grandpa – the grumpy old man
Hanna – the calm and wise one

Dynamic and intuitive gameplay

The goal is simple: finish first!
Race across 24 tracks filled with collectibles, shortcuts, and traps.
Use abilities, attacks, sprints, and other resources to gain an edge.
Each ghost has a unique playstyle — be ready for new challenges in every race.

Collect relics and upgrade your character

Relics are the game’s currency.
Win races, complete laps, defeat opponents, and gather as many as you can.
But be careful: if you’re defeated, your relics go to your opponent!
Upgrade your character’s stats such as max health, speed, sprint, attack, and more.
Use the talent tree to shape your ghost in your style — more offensive or more defensive.

Choose your difficulty

To progress through the story, each chapter requires a minimum difficulty.
But once unlocked, you can enjoy the game from difficulty I up to X.
Difficulty I is for those who just want to relax, V for casual players, and X for those who crave adrenaline and precision.

Unique soundtrack and visuals

Turn up the volume and get in the mood! The upbeat music won’t let you stand still.
