About the Game

Who told you to get such a useless college degree!? Neck-deep in student loans and looking for a job, Conrad Coldwood gets a call from his sister—she's had an occupational accident and is in dire need of a substitute. With no choice but to accept the offer, he gets roped into working for the Paranormal Research Society!

It's time to clock in and help research the local paranormal phenomena to figure out what's getting all those ghosts to start acting up all of a sudden! You'll have to deal with your less-than-lovely coworkers, and it looks like your boss is making you pay for your own equipment, but it can't be that bad, right? Right!?

This exciting experience includes:

  • Nine exciting job assignments for you to risk your life in!

  • Completely safe and legal firearms!

  • Fun paranormal phenomena for you to exterminate help research!

  • Menial labor!

  • Your horrible life choices haunting you!

  • A functional (?) bathroom!

Become a functional and contributing member of society as you run through dilapidated buildings and other various paranormal sites collecting samples and gunning down ghosts in this exciting first-person shooter. ​Collect, deliver, rinse, repeat...

Reviews from employees:

"This employer is actually insane. Seriously, do not approach that guy. Also, there's some kind of weird thing in the office bathroom and I feel like I'm being watched all the time? I wouldn't work here again for any amount of money. I hate it here. I want to quit."
