Evaluation

The Clingy Ghost is a self-described short horror-comedy game with approximately 30 minutes of playtime and a single ending — it was clearly designed and shipped as a complete, self-contained experience. The game launched on October 16, 2025 and received a series of polish updates in the weeks that followed: an easy mode was added on October 17, visual effects for evil spirits were added on October 23, and English/Simplified Chinese/Traditional Chinese language support was completed on November 9, 2025. These updates represent post-launch refinements rather than new content. The most recent developer communication was on November 9, 2025, and no future content, DLC, expansions, or roadmaps have been announced. There are no unreleased DLC listings on the store. The game's store description makes no mention of planned additions. This is a finished product that has received its final polish.
Evidence
v1.2.0 delivered the promised English, Simplified Chinese, and Traditional Chinese language support. This fulfilled the October 26 localization commitment and is the last known developer communication.

About this game

"The Clingy Ghost" is a short horror-comedy game where you play as an exorcist on a mission to blast away a haunted house’s curse.

【 Please Deal With the Evil Spirits 】

All you need to do is carry a curse-busting item to the shrine inside the haunted house—easy, right?

Well… it’s so cursed that it’s basically an Evil Spirit Paradise. But I’m sure you can handle it!

【 Your Ghost Buddy is Always With You! 】

Your mischievous ghost sidekick, Ryuji, has a sixth sense for curses.

Listen carefully to his pointless rambling—there just might be a clue to survival hidden in there.

Voice Cast:

Keisuke Akai as Takumi

Setsugekka as Ryuji

Mikaze Nekoyashiki as Evil Spirits

Playtime:

Approx. 30 minutes (Feels like watching a single anime episode)

Number of Endings:

1

How Did It Come to This:

Even star exorcists have bills to pay. I swore I’d take any job this time...

…but nobody said anything about a cursed haunted house, Ryuji!
