## Description

Haunt the House: Terrortown is a beautiful side-scrolling action puzzle game in which you play as a ghost who can possess objects to scare visitors through a spooky town. Navigate locations from a museum to other eerie venues and reclaim what’s lost before dawn with clever puzzles and mastering a charmingly cute yet eerie visual style, all supported by a jazzy soundtrack that heightens the mood.

Reviewers praise its visuals and audio: PocketGamer says 'The visuals are gorgeous, with a unique style which is both cute and creepy at the same time. The audio is also impressive, boasting effective spot effects and some genuinely amusing sounds.' 148Apps notes 'Spending even a mere couple of hours in Terrortown is worth the price of admission.' Eurogamer adds that there's 'There’s a surprisingly dark heart beating away inside this cheery little Halloween special. There’s a genuine sense of mischief, too, conveyed by the bug-eyed howls of your prey and the looping, lilting tones of the jazz-club soundtrack.'
