Description: The Ghostbusters need your help. Step into and explore the iconic Ghostbusters firehouse, where you’ll meet Mooglie for the first time. Plus, get up close and personal with everyone’s favourite troublemaker, Slimer!
Your adventure begins outside the firehouse in the streets of New York where Mooglie volunteers to be your guide. As you enter the firehouse, you’ll have the chance to explore Ecto-1, assemble and fire a proton pack, check out the basement where the Ghost Containment Unit lies, play with Slimer and much more! Don’t leave any stone unturned as ghostly surprises await your discovery.
Review: I’m not sure what sort of chaos is going on with this franchise, but ‘Ghostbusters VR: Now Hiring’ is more of a cash-grab than a game. The good news is this is based on the original 1984 film rather than the terrible remakes. The bad news is it is just as bad as those terrible remakes! I really do think this game is broken or unfinished or something as it has some of the most annoying glitches you will ever experience. But when it only lasts for just over 10 minutes you will be left wondering where your money went! Unless this super short experience becomes free I simply can’t recommend it. This is one game best avoided unless you really, really, REALLY love Ghostbusters.
