The Haunted Carnival is a spooky new escape room-style puzzler, out now on Android

Get ready for a chilling escape! The Haunted Carnival, a new escape room-style puzzler, is now available on Android. Prepare to explore—and hopefully escape—a truly eerie carnival.

Your path to freedom is blocked by five distinct rooms, each presenting five unique puzzles. It's a testament to how easily a fun day out can turn sinister; all it takes is dimmed lights and a few murderous clowns, right? If you doubt this, let The Haunted Carnival change your mind.

This escape room puzzler plunges you into the heart of a haunted carnival with one goal: escape. Numerous obstacles stand in your way, but unlike many point-and-click adventures, you'll enjoy the freedom to explore a fully rendered carnival environment. However, this isn't one continuous space; the carnival is divided into five rooms, each packed with five distinct puzzles.

The Haunted Carnival promises a blend of intrigue and spookiness. If clowns are your kryptonite, proceed with caution!

Initially, I was slightly concerned about the AI-generated art used in the game's icon. However, I was pleasantly surprised by the actual in-game environments, which feature appealing low-poly graphics.

While I haven't played through the entire game yet, if the puzzles are as well-designed as the environments, The Haunted Carnival is definitely worth checking out.
