Haunt

Haunt is an arcade game by NanaOn-Sha and Zoe Mode. The first of the mentioned teams has a cult rhythmic game PaRappa the Rapper, as well as Vib-Ribbon or UmJammer Lammy. Production available only in the Xbox Live service. A Kinect sensor is required to function.

We play the role of an anonymous person who came to the property of a Benjy. On the spot it turns out that the residence is haunted by spirits, so we have to get out of it as soon as possible in order to save our own skin. However, this will not be an easy task, because on the way we will encounter many riddles and will be persecuted by opponents.

In-game control is entirely based on controlling the character with the movements of the whole body. Tasks are not difficult to complete and, as with most Kinecta games, require crouching, jumping and moving your legs to simulate running or walking. Of course, that's not all Haunt offers. The creators of the game have also taken care of things like: blinding the eyes from the dazzling light, leaning sideways to avoid attacks by monsters and others.

Out of a series of less serious games designed for the Kinect sensor, Haunt tries to distinguish a bit more serious climate, hooking at the horror. The developer, however, did not create a fully-fledged ghost, but coloured the cheerful production with ghosts jumping out of the corner.

The graphic design of the Haunt game does not stand out from other productions of this type. The whole project was realized in a three-dimensional environment, but does not take full advantage of the possibilities offered by the Xbox 360 console. The characters and opponents are washed out of details, and the environment is characterized by medium quality texture and corridor design.
