Ghost Frequency introduces players to a controlled paranormal investigation, led by Mark, a field expert from PIT, the Paranormal Investigation Team. The mission is based in a desolate location where two investigators vanished under unknown conditions. Mark is accompanied by Emily, another member of the team, but the player’s focus remains on using tools, interpreting data, and uncovering what happened in the area. The approach is procedural, with gameplay shaped by careful scanning, slow exploration, and reaction to subtle anomalies.
Gameplay Mechanics And Approach
The core gameplay focuses on scanning and analyzing the environment. Players are not guided by a strict path but instead must rely on equipment to navigate and uncover supernatural presence. The design supports non-linear discovery, where attention to detail is key. Time plays a role, as different events may be triggered depending on how long the player remains in a space or how they interact with specific areas. Survival depends on keeping calm and responding appropriately to readings.
Devices Available During The Mission
Mark is equipped with several tools to help with the investigation:
- An EMF detector to detect unusual electromagnetic activity
- A thermal camera to reveal invisible heat signatures
- An EVP recorder to collect possible ghost-related sounds
- Real-time feedback from each device depending on player movement
- Interaction with Emily for updates and coordination
Each device must be used strategically to build an accurate picture of what is taking place.
Environmental Signals And Immersion
The abandoned site is filled with hidden signals—some visible, others only detected through instruments. As the game progresses, the area begins to feel less neutral and more reactive to player presence. Subtle shifts in sound and shadow become noticeable, increasing the sense of exposure. The environment never becomes hostile in a direct way, but psychological stress builds naturally through uncertainty. The player must balance investigation with caution as the unknown slowly unfolds.
Ghost Frequency is structured around the methodical process of paranormal detection. It does not feature traditional horror pacing or fast action. Instead, it emphasizes time, attention, and data collection to drive tension. Each successful reading or anomaly serves as a small piece of a larger mystery. The lack of immediate threat allows for full focus on the investigation, creating a space where immersion grows through silence, observation, and analysis rather than fear.
