Legacy announces Ghost Whisperer: Shadowlands

Casual games developer and publisher Legacy Interactive today announced a licensing agreement with CBS Consumer Products that will expand their roster of TV-licensed games. Part of the deal will see Legacy will develop a video game based on the popular CBS drama series Ghost Whisperer.

Available in early 2010, Ghost Whisperer: Shadowlands will debut on the PC and feature characters and themes from the television series. Players will take on the role of Melinda Gordon, a young woman living in Grandview, who has inherited a “sixth sense,” or the ability to see and communicate with ghosts.

Naturally, these earthbound spirits have unfinished business in our world preventing them from “crossing over” into the light. While trying to live as normal a life as possible with her paramedic husband, Jim, and as an owner of the antiques shop, Same As it Never Was, Melinda helps ghosts find resolution and pass over to the other side.

The game’s stories are penned by Emmy award-winning television writer Lance Gentile, with gameplay consisting of light adventure and hidden object-style game play where players need to help the recently departed move on to the afterlife and provide closure to loved ones left behind.
