About this product

Product Information

Geist by Nintendo GameCube is a puzzle-solving and first-person shooter game that was developed by n-Space specifically for this platform, and was released in 2005. During the game you play as the protagonist John Raimi, a 35-year-old government agent whose soul is removed from his body as a result of an illegal scientific experiment. In order to eventually reclaim his body, Raimi must possess a variety of animals, people, and physical objects, and make use of them to set things right again. In Geist by Nintendo GameCube, Raimi is an expert on chemical and biological threats, who is contacted by CR-2 to help in a mission to save an old college friend. During the mission Raimi is shot, and when he wakes up, he finds himself strapped to a machine which removes his spirit from his body. Raimi’s body is stored in the compound, and is possessed by a character named Wraith for most of the game, until eventually being given back his soul near the game’s end. Levels are progressed through when the various stages are completed. Stages are events in the game when you have to puzzle or fight your way through to reach the next level. Once you have completed a stage you have reached a new checkpoint. During gameplay, Geist uses a unique blend of first-person shooting and puzzle-solving action. Playing as Raimi’s immortal spirit, you can wander freely through the facility to try and solve puzzles and find clues. When playing in ’ghost mode’ time passes much slower, and one of the side effects of having no body is that your spiritual energy is quickly drained. When the energy empties out, Raimi’s spirit dissipates and passes into the afterlife. The energy is refilled when you posses someone or something. During gameplay it’s not possible to pass through solid objects, like walls, so a way must be found to open doors or pass through cracks. During Geist by Nintendo GameCube, the gameplay mainly consists of trying to find and possess inanimate objects, such as vending machines, mirrors, cans of paint, and even toilets. These objects are then used as a safe anchor for when the player needs somewhere to regenerate their energy. In order to really do anything in the game, players must try and possess living creatures. You are able to control any life form, whether animal or human, but it’s not as easy as it sounds because they must be in a specific brain state. During the game you will engage in combat with others, generally when you possess a soldier. Once you complete all the stages successfully, Raimi can regain his lost soul. Video games are a fun pastime for many people, and Geist by Nintendo GameCube delivers plenty of action and puzzle adventure.

    A horror game that surprises you with its puzzle aspect.

    Geist is one of those hidden first-party gems created by Nintendo. It is in fact very good at doing what it is trying to achieve: exploration and puzzle solving in a horror-like game. The exploration grants you with tokens that unlock new modes in the multiplayer and it also lets you upgrade your health. The puzzle solving is probably its biggest aspect. I first thought it would be weird for a horror game to incorporate puzzle elements and I was surprised. You cannot just possess anyone at will you must first scare them in some way and then you can proceed. The puzzles incorporate different aspects of the possession ability which are then explored to the fullest.

  • Geist

    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!!

  • Interesting and underrated!

    Geist didn't make the biggest sales splash when it released, but it is a unique and enjoyable game. It's game mechanics and central gimmick make it a cut above the usual FPS fare of the time.

  • Geist

    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.

  • Who ya gonna call?

    This is definitely a hidden gem among gamecube exclusive titles. Most of the game magazines gave this game some mediocre reviews, but believe me it is alot better than that. The whole premise of spooking someone, and then possessing them may sound hokey, but the game developers did a great job with this mechanic! possesing everything from people, gun turretts, and dogs is a blast! GREAT GAME!!
