Rules
You're trapped in a haunted house with a bunch of Halloween stereotypes and the only way to defeat them and escape is by matching three or more common monsters in a row!
It's actually just a Halloween themed Match-3 clone. Get 100 match-3's before time runs out to win!
Behind the Scenes
This is my second ever released game, I'd love to know what you think! I realize this game is pretty barebones even for a match-3 clone, and while I may decide to build upon it with more features and objectives in the future, at least for now I'm happy with it being a short, fun little Halloween minigame. So I really hope you enjoy, and Happy Halloween to all!

Lastly, a shoutout to Krystman of Lazy Devs (https://www.youtube.com/c/LazyDevs/featured) whose incredibly helpful Pico-8 tutorials played a huge part in making this project possible.
Changelog:
- v1.1
- Fixed AI which checks if there are any valid moves left on the board. AI should now work properly.
- Implemented hint system where, after 8 seconds of no moves being made, a hint box will appear around a tile that is involved with a valid move.
