Murder, vengeance, and poorly marked road hazards: Dolan's Cadillac is a match-3 massacre inspired by the Stephen King novella of the same name.

In this game, you take revenge on the mob boss who killed your wife by burying him alive in his beloved Cadillac.

"this is about the most metal concept for a match-three game I've ever seen..." -Evan Balster, Mastodon

Created for the PiCoSteveMo game jam. More info on the game's itch page.

(Note: the version on itch has a few extra Easter eggs that required running the cart through a minifier in order to keep the code smaller enough. The version hosted here has identical gameplay and somewhat more readable code, if that's the sort of thing you're into.)

I agree with Evan Balster, this is the most interesting match-three game I've played so far. Now I kind of want to read the novella too :)

I love the concept and execution 😄

very nice! first time I solved it correctly I got shot immediately but the second time I plopped some dirt on that windshield and it was game over for Dolan.

@ooooggll It's the first chapter in King's "Nightmares & Dreamscapes"; I believe if you ask Amazon to send you a "free sample", it includes the entire story :)

There's also a film adaptation, which I can't personally vouch for.
