While its predecessor, Spirit Hunter: Death Mark, found its spirits in distinct, horrifying locales, Spirit Hunter: NG weaves fear seamlessly into the mundane. Face down monsters in quiet residential streets, neighborhood parks, and even the protagonist’s own home. Be careful—terror lurks behind every corner.

Spirit Hunter: NG Review
This review is for the Nintendo Switch version

It's like Spirit Hunter: Death Mark without the whole Death Mark aspect to it. Instead of that, a teenager is forced to play games with an evil spirit named Kakuya who has kidnapped his little sister. Each game involves uncovering the mystery of some urban legends just like in Spirit Hunter Death Mark. The differences I've notices is that the locations in this game are much smaller making the game a bit lighter on exploration. Also, there's no option to choose what location to go to. None of these are issues, it just makes for a noticeably more limited experience compared to the original. The writing is good. Every character is likeable and a bit offbeat in interesting ways. All the ghost stories are creepy and disturbing. The game has a "Scary Mode" which just leads to some ghost jump scares. It's kinda weak. Only a couple worked on me. The issue I have with this game is the same issue I have with the first game. There are some puzzles I found to be too unclear for me to figure out. I had to use a walkthrough to get through this game. Even getting the answers doesn't make it …

Other than that, it's a good horror story that kept me hooked.

4.5 really, but honestly I'm fine acting like I'm giving this 5 stars considering how well it was done. Nearly no jumpscares, the atmosphere was fantastic and the story had me gripped. I can't count the times I was like "No way!" or "The design in this game is stupidly good."

I was impressed with pretty much everything in this. The only reason I'd rate it down slightly is because some of the "puzzles" weren't really puzzled and were more trial and error, as what you had to do/say wasn't very clear at all.

Other than that, I would say it's my favourite horror game to date.
