GhostBusters : The Video Game

Ghostbusters: The Video Game, an official sequel to the two Ghostbusters films, puts the player in control of Rookie, the unnamed newest member of the Ghostbusters. A mysterious ghostly shock wave sweeps through New York City shortly after the Ghostbusters are hired, prompting them to launch an investigation. They will visit many locations from the movies and meet returning characters as well as some new locations and characters throughout the game. As the Rookie, the player must explore levels to find and capture any ghosts, with the help of fellow Ghostbusters following you. A ghost must first be weakened by using any of the proton pack weapon modes to which it is vulnerable and then dragged to a trap set by the player or their teammates. Other enemy types must be defeated by exposing a weak point and removing it with the proton pack’s blast stream, or by simply dealing enough damage to the enemy. If the Rookie takes too much damage, they will be knocked unconscious, and their allies will try to help them get back up. If any of their allies are knocked out, the Rookie can do the same, and if all current members of the team are knocked down, the game will return to the last checkpoint. Scanning enemies and objects in the world yields information, and finding hidden pages in the levels delivers concept art for the entries. Throughout the game, the Rookie receives upgrades to their proton pack automatically, and by finding enough scanner entries, they can increase their health.
