Yeah, it took me about a week of practice, and a map right in front of me to get it just right. A cool sequence, but those damn cars can really slow you down. Add to the fact that it's the only part of the game that's a bit harder with the mouse (you can only pick one control style for the entire game), and it can be very frustrating.
@elbryan42 Yeah, I just did a video of this game myself, and on the Statue of Liberty section, you can see me not making very good progress with the mouse! That being said, when I was a kid, I didn't have a mouse, so I played the whole game with a keyboard! The statue part was easier, but busting ghosts was WAY harder, LOL!
Thank You! You uploaded this over a year ago but my search brings me to it now! I have been wanting to see the ending of this game for years! The museum sequence is great, much like the Amiga version, they are just like the movie. Thanks for uploading the game in its entirety.
Yes, if you die, you can save them from Parkview. Trust me, it's a waste of time. It's seemingly random if the window with a shadow in it has a Ghostbuster in it or not. If it doesn't there's two orderlies that you have to avoid, and the timing has to be exact. So either you save a Ghostbuster right away, or there's a good chance that you'll lose another one.
In the end, you either deal with the loss, or not die. But a loss of a Ghostbuster means one less hit when you fight Vigo.
...i played this thing wayback, man!. But i always got stuck on the "statue of liberty" level.. Can somebody tell me how in the hell could i pass that level?
I never could beat it back in the day either. It really helps to play with the mouse, BTW. I used to play with the joystick, which really sucks. As for the Statue of Liberty level, you need to get to the museum on 45th street between Polk and Park Street. You need to use the map that came with the manual, or make one of your own.
The map was like this. It's a grid. From left to right, it's 41st to 48th streets, and up to down it's Wood, Mill, High, Polk, Park, Moss, Oak, and Bell streets. To change direction, you must place both feet down together in the intersection you need to change direction at.
The Statue slows down the more cars you step on. Right either lowers the left foot or raises the right, and left lowers the right foot or raises the left. And up and down moves the current foot when it's fully raised.
@elbryan42 ... thanks man , i got it, let me get this straight, the museum is where the "x" is at,right?... once the level begins where do you start off?. Ha!..i was worse... i used to play it on keyboard.
It's been years since I saw the map with my own eyes, but I'd assume that X marks the spot. Either way, like i said, it's halfway between Polk and Park, on 45th street. As for where you start off, it's completely random. I like it when you start on 45th, that way you just pick north or south and keep going until you reach the museum.
@elbryan42 Thanks man, for real I'll let you know how i did. Seriously dude, its been like what...20 years?..sice didn't have a clue and left that game undone, haha. Back on the good'ol dos days
Yes, I have. I don't rememeber it being very good. I would really like to get ahold of the European version, or the Gameboy game, as it looks much better.
The Statue of Liberty part always seems to get me. I always run out of time before I reach the museum.

I have the map!
I'll explain it for you.
it's a 7 by 7 grid
on the left side downwards the streets are: wood, mill, high, polk, park, moss, oak, bell
on the top across from left to right
41st, 42nd, 43rd, 44th, 45th, 46th, 47th, 48th
The museum is located on 45th street between polk and park.
I hope this helps you.

Shit, even in a video, the slime collecting levels make me nervous. Loved this game! One of the best GB games ever, in my opinion.

Whats up with the music when you collect the slime. Sounds like you are at a low budget carnival and you have to test your might for a stuffed animal

So yeah, you have to do the level almost exactly perfect or you run out of time and it's game over.
