Sneak Peek: Ghost Trick Summary (Patreon)

Hello everyone!

Ghost Trick: Phantom Detective was a particularly difficult game to summarize. This is mostly because it's a mystery story, where most plot developments are in service of deepening the mystery rather than moving the story forward, but also because this game is BONKERS. It's hard enough to briefly summarize the twists and turns of a mystery plot without the absurdity of a Shu Takumi game. The result was, at least in writing, kind of confusing.

So I broke my usual production pipeline and put the summary together ahead of time, to make sure that adding in-game visuals helped make it more easily followable. I think it worked! And since I had this segment of the video done so far ahead of the full release, I figured it would make sense to let you all see it too. It's incomplete; I haven't filmed my own parts yet, I haven't put in background music, and I'm planning to have voices for the characters in the final video. But the shape is there!

Spoilers, obviously. It's a summary of the whole plot. It's a hard enough game to find that I can't blame you for watching if you haven't played it (it's only available on DS and iOS), but it's a really fun game that comes across a lot better by playing it than listening to it, so proceed with caution.

Thanks for your support, and I hope you enjoy this sneak peek!
