Ghostbusters: The Unofficial Dice Game is a fan-made cooperative dice game built around the original team. The setup imagines the Containment Unit springing open, ghosts flooding New York, and the players trying to shut the whole crisis down before Gozer turns it into the end of the world.
How the game works
This one leans into a quick, replayable press-your-luck rhythm. Players work together, roll custom dice, manage the pressure on the containment and Gozer tracks, and try to keep the city from spiraling out of control. It is not an official retail release; it is the kind of small fan project that exists because somebody really wanted a lightweight Ghostbusters dice game to exist.
The version most often referenced now is the revised 2.0 rules set, which cleaned up the original release and made the game easier to teach and revisit.
