The Paranormal Society 9+

This game takes some charming aesthetics from the steampunk genre and sets you in Victorian England to look into the ghostly specters haunting the town. The visuals are mostly stills, but they set the tone appropriately and are fun to explore. As far as gameplay goes, G5 borrows from it's go-to gig of "Search & Find" to fill in the meat of your activity time, though for an app game on the run, that's not necessarily a bad thing.
The gameplay of the current version is an update from a older version that had you looking for tedious items to open doors and locks, and much of the logic behind figuring out where things go or what to use them for often made little or no sense. This version removes that rigamarole for simply finding items and *ta-da* there's that thing you're looking for! The only downside to the game is that it can get dull and repetitive, and the game hasn't expanded much in the world it has created. And that's a real shame because the idea of ghost hunting in Victorian England with a little steampunk flourish is a wonderfully fun idea, something that could easily have countless possibilities added on to it. Overall, if Victorian Steampunk Ghost Hunting is your style, than this will be a lovely addition to your tablet or iPhone. (And in the meantime, I strongly urge G5 to revisit and expand on this world, because the concept is too big for just a few locations.)

I am enjoying playing the game I’m on level 157. Now that I’m at that level I’m getting no where new nor finding a way to finish the game. Plus you only offered some of the specters once at the beginning of the game. I did not have the opportunity to capture them & now that I am finally find the needed items I can’t complete them… I have spent money so it not like I’m asking for something free. I just wish you would offer the seasonal specters again (durning those seasons would be fine).
I am just really doing the daily challenges when I have some down time. I’d really like to complete the game, I’ve been playing for over two years & it’s starting to get to boring. I tried one of the other games but it just had too many things to do daily & I don’t have 2-3 hours a day to waste, nor do I want to spend any further money on that game while I still have tons of rubies (that I’ve already paid for) on this game. Please consider doing an update & offering an opportunity to finish finding the other characters. Thank you!!

Big fan of G5. Love the graphics and their concepts are generally good. This game, as are many of their games, is a hidden objects games with a twist. I played secret society for years until computer crashed and never really got back into it. Loved that game. This is similar but, I am finding that this is less generous with rewarding the player with occasional food for energy and the collections, so far, are harder to fill and also give less rewards. The take home is the player ends up having to spend more money to keep playing. Only on level 17 so, maybe it will get better. I hope so because always liked G5 because they rewarded the player and didn’t seem like they were all about making money. Also, and this really bothered me on secret society as well, I HATE THAT WHEN YOU LEVEL UP IT TAKES ALL OF THE POINTS YOU HAVE’NT USED PREVIOUSLY!!! Granted it raises you to your maximum energy score +5 but, energy points are hard to come by and you don’t want to lose any especially if you bought food to get them. Please fix this!!!! Additionally, I agree with some of the other reviews: you need to allow more time especially, since you are having to flip from thing to thing and it’s not all listed out like it was in secret society. Thanks for your hard work G5 developers you create good stuff.
