Overview and Gameplay
Dr. Harvey has been turned into ectoplasm, and Casper must guide Kat through Whipstaff Manor to reach the Lazarus Machine. Casper is a late SNES action-adventure based on the film, focused on exploration, morph items, hazards, and room-to-room puzzle solving.
Casper searches the manor for seven Cellular Integrator capsules while protecting Kat and using ghost powers to pass obstacles. Progress depends on finding the right item form for each situation, from keys and ropes to balloons and wiring movement.
