About the game

A relaxing first-person game about sorting bones and bringing a ghost village back to life. Rebuild skeletons, awaken spectral powers and watch your growing community organise its own games, dances and celebrations.

Original Steam description

Bones to sort. Neighbours to wake.

BOO & BONES is a relaxing first-person game about sorting and collecting bones. A sorcerer has dug up the villagers and scattered their bones. Answer a ghost’s call for help: rebuild their skeletons, bring them home and watch the village fill with life.

Find the matching pieces

Look at colours and patterns to recognise bones from the same skeleton. Pick up your finds, organise your stack and toss the right pieces into a grave of their colour. As you explore, the sets become easier to recognise and the clutter starts to clear. A few more bones, one last skull… your next neighbour isn't far away.

Big rituals for little ghosts

The skeleton is complete: the lid closes, the sky darkens and a glowing ritual announces the arrival of a little ghost. A BOO, a few joyful bounces, and they're ready to join the village. Each has a name of their own, often much more intimidating than they are.

More neighbours, more life

Every ten ghosts unlocks another activity in the village. Discover 12 group activities, from conga lines and hide-and-seek to a choir, magic shows and floating lanterns. Your neighbours organise and gather on their own. Take a break between skeletons and enjoy the show.

Put a little magic into your sorting

Awaken the four spectral stones to unlock your powers. Reveal matching bones and draw them towards you. Locate a grave already holding pieces of the same skeleton, or cross the village with a spectral dash. Earn points for each completed summoning and choose which powers to upgrade to suit the way you play.

Meet your new neighbours

The streets fill up, conversations begin and the tavern finds its regulars. Some ghosts settle in at the market or behind the bar; others enjoy a drink, go for a stroll or take a nap. Between discoveries, stop to greet your neighbours and see how they react. The village you awaken becomes a place to slow down and wander, too.

Bring every resident home to discover how this little story ends.

Take your time. Your next neighbour might still be in pieces.
