yo-heave-ho is an interactive fiction game about ghosts. Ghosts that haunt buildings. Ghosts that haunt machines.
Your name is Sarah. You work at a dark ride in a popular theme park in the early 2000s. A hurricane's right on top of the park...but your boss insists that you close up the ride.
So cross your fingers and hope it changes course.
