You can play it in your browser with mouse or keyboard controls, and it also works fine on mobile devices.<\/p> <p><em>The Great Ghoul Duel <\/em>is a great little time-waster, and I mean that as a sincere compliment.<\/p> <p>The game is fast, approachable, and allows for just enough strategy to keep things fresh. You can scour the map for far-off spirits and keep a low profile, or you can strike at the last moment to steal the other team&#8217;s spirits when they try to deposit them. I&#8217;ve enjoyed bouncing back and forth between those two extremes as matches progress. The mad dash in the final few seconds is where the magic happens.<\/p> <p>If you enjoy <em>Snake<\/em>, <em>Pac-Man Championship Edition<\/em>, and <em>Agar.io<\/em>, give this a shot.<\/p><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":10,"featured_media":239631,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"article_type":"","gamurs_wordpress_blocks_hide_tags":false,"_mi_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"apple_news_api_created_at":"","apple_news_api_id":"","apple_news_api_modified_at":"","apple_news_api_revision":"","apple_news_api_share_url":"","apple_news_coverimage":0,"apple_news_coverimage_caption":"","apple_news_is_hidden":false,"apple_news_is_paid":false,"apple_news_is_preview":false,"apple_news_is_sponsored":false,"apple_news_maturity_rating":"","apple_news_metadata":"\"\"","apple_news_pullquote":"","apple_news_pullquote_position":"","apple_news_slug":"","apple_news_sections":"\"\"","apple_news_suppress_video_url":false,"apple_news_use_image_component":false,"footnotes":"","_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false},"categories":[1,97],"tags":[154,725,1749,175,156,291,109],"internal-label":[],"invoiceable_action":[],"article_type":[],"coauthors":[{"id":10,"display_name":"Jordan Devore","user_login":"Jordan Devore","user_nicename":"jordan-devore"}],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n<title>Google whipped up a cute competitive ghost game for Halloween &#8211;
