Ever wondered how a fun day out at a carnival could turn into a spine-chilling adventure? Look no further than The Haunted Carnival, an intriguing escape room-style puzzler that's now available on Android. This game throws you right into the heart of an eerie carnival where your only goal is to escape. But it's not going to be easy with a series of obstacles standing in your way.
Much like the point-and-click adventures we discussed last week with Legacy Reawakening, The Haunted Carnival lets you explore a fully rendered carnival environment at your own pace. However, don't expect a stroll through a single continuous world. Instead, the game is divided into five distinct rooms, each packed with five unique puzzles that you need to solve to progress.
While The Haunted Carnival promises a thrilling mix of intrigue and spookiness, it's not for the faint-hearted, especially if clowns give you the creeps. The game's atmosphere is designed to keep you on the edge of your seat.
Admit oneI must admit, I was initially skeptical upon noticing some AI-generated art in the game's icon. However, the actual gameplay pleasantly surprised me with its appealing low-poly environments that really enhance the experience.
Although I haven't had the chance to dive deep into the gameplay myself, the quality of the environment design suggests that the puzzles in The Haunted Carnival are worth exploring.
