Happy Halloween

A haunted house full of clicks, tricks, and treats—can you follow the intro and make it through without losing your candy?

You get dropped straight into a cartoon Halloween scene and told to use the mouse. The intro walks you through what each level wants—grab the candy, click the right decoration, avoid the jump-scares that are more goofy than scary. I liked that it doesn't hold your hand after the first screen. You're expected to actually read the brief and then pay attention to which objects wiggle or glow when you hover over them. One moment I kept messing up was the pumpkin patch. The instruction says click only the carved ones, but the uncarved ones look nearly identical if you're rushing. The first time I clicked a plain pumpkin, the game made a soft bonk sound and reset my streak. That little audio cue saved me later—turn your volume up, because the sound design does half the pointing for you. There's also a bit where you have to click the witch's hat before the purple smoke fills the screen, and the cackle that follows is oddly satisfying. It's not deep, but it's not trying to be. Perfect for a ten-minute break in October when you want something seasonal that won't punish you for being bad at it. I came back twice just to see if I could get through without a single wrong click. No download, no sign-up, just a mouse and a mildly spooky vibe that's more fun than frightening.
