Late Review“Polterguys: Possession Party is a raucous, charming party game that nails social chaos and emergent hilarity. It’s easy to pick up, endlessly replayable with friends, and packed with personality thanks to its costumes, toys, and physics‑first interactions. Balance issues, occasional bot and map quirks, and a mildly grindy progression loop hold it back from higher marks, but the core experience; creative sabotage, laugh‑out‑loud moments, and strong party energy, makes it a solid buy for multiplayer fans.”

Launch Window“Polterguys is a fun party game full of traps and betrayal as you try to avoid the monster. You don't need to be the fastest, as long as there's someone slower than you.”

Launch Window“Polterguys: Possession Party is the type of party game that manages to feel fresh, funny, and frantic without relying on several mini-games. It’s a decent shake-up of the genre with enough originality to keep players coming back. It may have a limited scope solo. But multiplayer, whether you’re partying online or yelling at your sister for turning into a portal and ditching you to the monster, this one’s a hauntingly good time. A free demo is also available on Steam.”
