‘Ghost Theory’ is Back On Kickstarter!

Published

on

After a short hiatus following an unsuccessful first attempt at crowdfunding their supernatural horror game Ghost Theory back in February, Dreadlocks has returned to Kickstarter with another campaign that should, hopefully, get them what they need to realize what looks to be a very promising video game about hardcore ghostbustin’.

If you missed it the first time around, Ghost Theory is a paranormal investigation game set in “real” haunted locales so that we can explore distant, isolated or guarded parts of the world sans the risk of being arrested, murdered by drifters, or visited by the undead manifestation of our darkest secrets, fears and insecurities that’ll probably wear the face of a loved one while it slowly eats us alive. This game hopes to save you and I from such a terrible fate, but before it can do that it’ll need $71,178 by May 13. That’s half its original funding goal, and it’s already raised $8,743.

Dreadlocks is aiming for a release next fall for PC, Mac, Linux, PS4 and Xbox One.
