Ghost-fi: A Game About Last Impressions and Learning to Say Goodbye
A downloadable game
You're Dead. And life? Well, it's Moved on, will you?
In this game, players are ghosts guided through the last moments before the afterlife as they work through severing the tethers that keep them attached to the world—making the ultimate decision to move on from this mortal coil or to remain.
This game can be played in tandem with characters from other stories who have met their final chapters to commemorate their journey.
Death is a tool of storytelling.
A necessary one.
The most human thing we can do as storytellers is to show how to deal with moments in life,
no matter how difficult they may be.

Ghost-Fi is sublime.
I’d never played a journalling game before, but this sets a high bar. The book is gorgeous, the mechanics are nuanced without imposing on the player, and the overall tone of the game is beautiful. I honestly felt like I’d met someone, and lost them at the end. I’m not even ashamed to say I teared up. The flavour text throughout is well chosen. What a journey.
Thank you for the experience, Eli. It was incredible.
Extremely beautiful and haunting game. A wonderful storytelling tool for when it’s time to help a character with the final chapter of their story. Strong visual design as well, really love the way the book looks. The rules are intuitive and provide enough of a framework to fit into any group’s regular games. This is how we’ll be handing character death at my table from now on. If you’re on the fence, give it a try!
Making my way through it and looking forward to running it for friends
