In this game, you'll play as a member of the Ravenswood Paranormal Society, a group of friends researching the creepy and unexplained happenings in Chicago. One afternoon, you arrive at your group's office to find a message on the answering machine:
"Hi, uh this is Jayden Augustine. My husband and I just bought this really cool old house that we're renovating for a bed and breakfast. And like, sure it's a little haunted but it's really old. And that's part of the charm.
But last night Jacques found me sleepwalking. Which I've never done before. And I was... well I was digging in the basement... And now he says if I don't have someone ‘fix it’ that he's gonna call a priest. Could you... maybe come have a look?"
This game will be great if you like playing Monster of the Week, but would like a crunchier combat system.
