Game Overview
In 'Obakeidoro 2,' players split into two teams, humans and ghosts, to engage in a game of tag.

The game further includes new ghost characters such as 'Oogama,' alongside new lanterns to aid in the pursuit or escape gameplay mechanics. The addition of new maps will also require players to adapt their strategies, especially in challenging terrains.
