About Phasma — The Team Behind the Ghost Hunting Game

Every culture on earth is fascinated by the paranormal. We're building a game that brings those communities together.

Phasma is a location-based game where you explore the real world to find, capture, and talk to AI-generated spirits. Every spirit has its own personality, backstory, and voice. Every location holds something different. No two encounters are the same.

We're here to celebrate the paranormal, get people outside exploring, and ultimately have fun. The world is full of hidden stories — we just made a game that lets you find them.

What We Believe

Get Outside

The game is the real world. Walk your neighborhood, visit a landmark, explore somewhere new. The best spirits are found by the people who go looking.

Every Spirit Is Unique

AI generates every spirit's name, backstory, personality, and voice on-device. You can have a real conversation with anything you catch. Nothing is scripted.

Celebrate the Paranormal

Ghost stories, haunted places, local legends — every culture has them. Phasma is a game for anyone who's ever been fascinated by the things that go bump in the night.

Privacy by Design

AI runs on your device, not our servers. Your location data stays with you. We built it this way on purpose.

Play Together

Haunted hotspots, leaderboards, and shared discoveries. The paranormal is more fun when you bring friends.

Have Fun

That's it. Catch ghosts, build your vault, talk to spirits, compete with friends. We made this because we wanted to play it.

Go outside. Find spirits. Build your vault. It's free.
