Point and click games used to be all the craze until around the 2010s. Now, they're usually relegated to mid size productions or simple indie titles. The genre also proved incredibly popular among flash game creators, due to the relatively simple planning and programming that goes into such a game. There are a ton of flash game creators that got into the craze, with Ena Game Studio being one of many. Let's look at one of their games, Control the Ghost.

To play Control the Ghost, just run it with whatever SWF player you have.

The English is, as is standard in Ena Game Studio games, practically broken. You can understand what the plot is, but only just barely. You play as someone who's been trapped in a dream world and tasked to capture a ghost to escape.

The sound design is the same as practically every other Ena Game Studio game - the background music is fairly high quality, while the sound effects sound like they come from a cartoon for children. It's a very jarring contradiction.

The puzzles themselves are fairly fun and well-designed, however. Pixel hunts are rare, which is a mark of good puzzle design in escape/adventure games.

All in all, if you're a fan of point-and-click games, then Control the Ghost is very worthy of your time. You won't regret your choice if you give this game a shot.
