Spook-A-Boo coming to Nintendo Switch, a new ghost hunting game featuring Sly Cooper voice actor Kevin Miller

Soft Source and Wala Interactive have unveiled Spook-A-Boo for various platforms, including Nintendo Switch. It’ll be ready to go later this year.

Spook-A-Boo is a ghost hunting game featuring Sly Cooper voice actor Kevin Miller. Since it’s inspired by Saturday morning cartoons like Scooby-Doo and Ghostbusters, the casting choice makes sense. Up to four people can play together locally or online.

A darling on the indie circuit, Spook-A-Boo welcomes you and up to three friends to join D.E.D (Dimensional Entity Department) and hunt down and capture troublemaking ghosts across time and space.
