Casper is a classic action-adventure game where Casper 's three uncles have turned Dr. Harvey into a blob of ectoplasm. Now it's up to Casper and Dr. Harvey's daughter, Kat, to find a way to rescue Dr. Harvey. To accomplish this task, they must find seven cellular integrator capsules located throughout the Whipstaff Manor.
Players take control of a floating Casper , who is followed by Kat throughout the Manor. Gameplay consists of Casper picking up items that he will be able to morph into, enabling him to fight off various enemies and to also assist Kat in getting through the mansion unscathed.
The game features a range of items that Casper can turn into, such as a butterfly net, a pillow, and a plunger. He also has the ability to turn invincible as a defensive maneuver. However, if Casper strays too far away from Kat, she will be abducted by a ghost.
Casper was released on the Super Nintendo in December 1996 and is an enjoyable addition to the classic platformer genre.
