Game Special Features
  • Game Storyline: You are John Raimi, a disease-control agent with the federal government, on loan to an elite counterterrorism unit. Your team is sent to investigate the shadowy Volks Corporation. When the operation goes horribly wrong, you are captured and subjected to a ghastly experiment that rips your spirit from your physical body. You now roam the halls of the Volks Corporation compound as a spectral phantom, using your powers to scare and possess any human or animal that crosses your path.
  • If you're going to have any hope of finding your own body, you must employ your hair-raising power of possession to control humans, animals and objects, using the unique abilities of each to explore the compound, solve puzzles and strike at your enemies. Along the way, you must discover the secret of the Volks Corporation to unravel the mystery of your condition and find a way to recover your human form.
  • Characters: John Raimi
  • How to progress through the game: As a powerful specter, you can deviously manipulate objects in the environment to scare humans and animals. Once you have struck terror in the heart of your prey, you can possess and control their physical bodies and use them to accomplish your objectives. Possess many unique character types, and use their unique skills, equipment and even memories to complete your goals. Possession targets range from heavily-armed soldiers to dogs and mice that can reach out-of-the-way areas.
  • Different characters react to the world from different perspectives: As an engineer, you may have access to restricted areas and computers, while as a mouse you may find yourself inexplicitly drawn to mouse traps baited with cheese.
  • Special powers/weapons/moves/features: As a ghost, you are invisible to humans and move so fast that everything around you appears in slow motion. While in this phantom form, you can effortlessly pass through chain-link fences or through small cracks in walls. Most importantly, you can possess everyday objects like lights, computers and fire extinguishers and manipulate them to terrify nearby humans or animals. Once a living creature has been frightened, you can possess and control its body. As you play, you'll need to face challenges from two unique angles -- as a lurking spirit and as a possessed human or animal.

    I like the game because it is an intellectual game with puzzles to solve. If it weren't for possessing people and animals or blasting them with a machine gun, I would not have bought it. The story line is slow sometimes especially when you can not figure out where to go next but the game keeps you hooked. The only downside I have found is that you can not vary from the objective and complete the stage another way. The game has a way of conforming you to complete it the way it wants you to.

    great game. Fun to possess bodies to complete task and move on. I had been watching the stores waiting for a sell. Got a great deal on ebay and have been pleased with the game. Have had two other friends start a game and all of us want to play whenever we can.

    This game offers some unique perspectives which is where a lot of the fun comes. You'll see the world as a rabbit, a mouse and even inanimate objects such as a faucet, or a computer. The puzzles can get a little frustrating at times, but can often be solved with some perseverance (and perhaps a little internet help). All in all, this is a very good game. I recommend it highly!

    I had decided to buy this product because....well, I just had beat all of my other games. When I told my friend I was looking to buy, he recommended a couple titles to me, and Geist was one of them. I saw the high ratings, and decided to purchase it. I loved the game!! It was so much fun. you can posess almost everything. It has a satisfing storyline, and amazing gameplay. The only thing I didn't like was that I think that they skimped on the final battle. Other than that, Geist gets praise from me!!
