The game is based off of Luigi's Mansion 2, and uses the same ghosts from the game. It takes place inside three levels, the Gloomy Manor, the Old Clockworks, and the Treacherous Mansion as the final stage that are all from Luigi's Mansion 2. The ghosts that appear in the game are the Greenie, Slammer, Hider, Gobber, Creeper, Strong Ghost Forms, Boos, and Polterpups all appear in the game, and Polterpups give you the most points out of any ghost you capture in the game. The Arcade Machine itself is a sit down arcade machine, similar to arcade games like Need For Speed VS, and Omega Race, also instead of a normal joystick as the controller it uses Luigi's Poltergust 5000 that grips into your hands light a light-gun, and the flashlight is also combined with the Poltergust 5000. It is also a two player game as well, so you can grab a friend to play with you and capture some ghosts!
