Do you believe in life after love? What about love after life? As it turns out, that's what all the cool spirits are up to beyond the veil. Ghostina tells us as much early on in Love, Ghostie when I first appear before her as a newly-departed soul, set to pay my dues to humanity from the beyond. I'll be doing so from my very own manor house, mine to haunt for all eternity – or at least, until I run out of new tenants to match up and watch as they fall in love with a little phantasmic help.
Love, Ghostie is part dating sim, part management sim, and part muli-ended visual novel, but it's all heart. There's something so calming about watching love blossom between two strangers, seemingly from nothing at all, while having had a hand in the proceedings all along. Some might call it a thankless task, stealing little items and "gifting" them to residents while crediting it to a would-be admirer, but that's kind of the point. This is not just a game about making others fall in love. Love, Ghostie is a game about accepting and loving yourself, no matter where you stand on this mortal coil. I'm passing a tissue your way as we speak.
