Hidden Arcade: Hundreds of Ghosts!
You find yourself in a strange abandoned Arcade Hall where a ghost begs you to release the souls trapped in the games. Find and release 100 hidden spirits in each of the three machines to exorcise the arcade.
The Basics
Let’s get down to the basics of Hidden Arcade: Hundreds of Ghosts by a two-person developer team, Lemfactory. The gameplay is as simple as point and click, but there are a few tips to remember when starting. The most important thing to know is that you can zoom in and that using a mouse is easier than the trackpad on a laptop.

In the top left corner of the screen on each level is a timer that tracts the time it takes to find all 100 ghosts. Don’t let it trick you into rushing through the levels on your first playthrough, each level can be replayed to compete for ranking on the global leaderboards.
Why Should I Play?
So why should you play Hidden Arcade: Hundreds of Ghosts? This short hidden object game is cute and funny with the right amount of spookiness to give it a very unique feel in a heavily saturated game category. The three free levels and story with the free-floating arcade ghost can be completed in under 15 minutes but it has the potential to have some staying power. There is a burgeoning community aspect of the game tied to the custom-level generator that I hope will continue to develop.
Jump into the community now and free some souls! You can uncover all the disguised spirits for free in Hidden Arcade: Hundreds of Ghosts on Steam for free.
