Demonology is a survival and horror experience where you take on the role of a paranormal investigator and attempt to identify the spirit haunting a particular location. To do this, you must gather different types of evidence, locate the ghost’s favorite room, and survive deadly hunts using a variety of specialized equipment. From simple tools that detect paranormal activity to advanced devices that help reveal ghost evidence, every piece of equipment serves a unique purpose.
This guide covers all the equipment available in Demonology, including starter items, purchasable gear, and limited-time event equipment.
Demonology Equipment guide
There are currently three categories of equipment available in Demonology:
- Starter Equipment: Free items available to every player from the beginning. These tools are more than enough to complete investigations on small and medium-sized job sites, making them perfect for beginners or players saving their cash for more expensive upgrades.
- Purchasable Equipment: As players complete investigations and earn money, they can buy stronger and more specialized tools from the lobby shop. There are currently 15 purchasable equipment types available in the game.
- Limited-Time Equipment: These are special event-exclusive items that are only obtainable during certain events. In some cases, they act as unique skins or alternate versions of existing equipment.
