Ghost Opera is freeform? My gut reaction says "no it's not!"
I think that because it's got explicit conflict resolution that's cued by events in the fiction, it doesn't feel like freeform to me. It's just diceless.
When I think freeform, I think of games that have no explicit cued rules - or the only cued rules refer to real-life things, like "It's the Winter phase now, so people can die" or whatever.
That's just my gut though. It should probably stick to making poops.
