Review: Spirittea – A Relaxing Life Sim With A Few Bumps In The Night

Afterlife sim.

There’s no shortage of games where you have to cleanse a town of ghosts. But do those games let you cleanse the ghosts themselves? Spirittea does. Canadian solo developer Cheesemaster brings us this Japanese- and Korean-inspired afterlife sim. It’s a brew of Spirited Away, Stardew Valley, and other things that mostly goes down well, albeit with a few harder-to-swallow bits.

You create a character with limited customisation, and you’re told you’re a writer moving to a small town to focus on your book.
