Play Avenging Spirit-mame Online
Haunt gangsters as a vengeful ghost, hijacking their bodies mid-brawl—one moment you're a nimble ninja, the next you're torching enemies with a flamethrower. The pixel art pops as you frantically swap between thugs just to survive.
Avenging Spirit is a 1991 arcade game by Jaleco, playable today through MAME. It arrived late in the arcade's golden age, a time when developers were pushing hardware to create more complex and unusual experiences. This game fits right into that experimental spirit.
You control the ghost of a murdered boy, seeking revenge. Your main objective is to navigate each stage, defeat enemies, and ultimately confront the gang responsible for your death. The core mechanic is possession; you can fly into any enemy (except bosses) and take over their body, gaining their unique weapons and movement, from a knife-wielding thug to a grenade-lobbing soldier. This constant body swapping is essential, as each host has limited health and your ghost form is vulnerable. The pacing is fast and the difficulty is relentless, demanding quick decisions about who to possess and when to abandon a damaged body. It feels like a desperate, chaotic scramble for survival where your greatest weapon is unpredictability itself.
