Moving Out Monday #14 - Busting Ghosts

Hey Movers,

Last week we talked all about the ways in which you can really customise the game for yourself, but this week we thought we’d go a bit silly and introduce you to…

THE GHOSTS!



In Moving Out, you can ‘slap’ all sorts of things. What kind of things, you may ask? Well, I’m happy to let you know that the exhaustive list includes other movers, mailboxes, NPCs, delicate vases and well… all the movables.



Now back to that Ghost. The Ghost of Packmore’s Past is actually very friendly, but it’s just in their nature to be very ghost-like. We’d ask you not to hold that against them. But what can old Ghostie do? Games of chasey – this is fun, running is good for you – it’s especially important during isolation to keep your fitness up, after all. Ghostie also tries to bust you by grabbing you with those creepy and ghost-like arms – oooOOooo don’t get caught!



In the event that you don’t want to deal with the skeletons in your closet, you can try blocking their path with stacks of items. Unlike your more sophisticated, garden-variety ghost, old mate Packmore can’t pass through material objects, so they’re stuck if you try to block them in. If only all ghosts were as accommodating.



Now, if you’re a real hero, you can offer yourself as bait and lead Ghostie away from the other players to save the day. They will thank you by passing the level and offering social distance appropriate air hugs from exactly 1.5m away.

Now, if you do get close, never fear, you can SLAP old Ghostie to stun them for a few seconds to escape.



I knew we’d get to the Ghost slap, eventually.



Thanks for chilling with us,
Stay safe!
