Ghostscape 2 - The Cabin Overview
Ghostscape 2: The Cabin was one of those point-and-click Flash games you'd find on a free gaming site in the late 2000s. It fit right in with the era's casual horror adventures, where a simple premise and a spooky atmosphere were enough to pull you in for an afternoon. The game didn't need elaborate graphics or a complex story; it was just you, a quiet forest, and a mystery waiting inside a lonely building.
You control a cursor, moving it around the screen to investigate the cabin and its grounds. Your main goal is to figure out the history of the place and the identity of the old man who lives there. You do this by clicking on objects to examine them, collecting items like pages from a diary, and using tools such as a camera to document clues or a metal detector to find hidden objects in the dirt. The pacing is slow and deliberate, encouraging you to look at everything carefully. It's not a difficult game, but it requires patience and attention to detail. The experience feels like quietly piecing together a puzzle while a subtle sense of unease builds around you.
