About This Game

Halloween was supposed to be about getting candy. You picked the wrong house. 

In Trick Nor Treat, you play as a kid whose Halloween night takes a terrifying turn after entering a strange, run-down house. A trapdoor sends you into a mysterious world connected by a hallway of locked doors. Behind each door waits a new environment—and something from folklore waiting in the darkness.  

To escape, you'll need more than courage. Explore each area, uncover clues, learn about the legends surrounding the supernatural entities you encounter, and survive long enough to determine exactly what is hunting you. 

Investigate the Legends 

Explore unsettling environments filled with clues and information about ghosts and cryptids drawn from folklore. Information plaques and environmental discoveries reveal details that can help you distinguish one possible entity from another. 

Pay attention to what you discover. Information plaques act as guides throughout each level, teaching you about the folklore, history, and identifying characteristics of possible supernatural entities. Use what you learn alongside environmental clues to narrow down what may be hunting you. 

Your Flashlight Is Your Defense 

You're not completely helpless. 

Your flashlight can drive back supernatural threats, but its battery won't last forever. Search the environment for replacement batteries and decide carefully when you need the light and when you can risk the darkness.  

Run when you need to. Defend yourself when you can. And listen carefully—crying, footsteps, breaking branches, whispers, and other sounds may warn you that you're no longer alone. Sound is deliberately used to build tension before encounters rather than relying entirely on constant jump scares.  

Learn. Deduce. Survive. 

Reaching the end of a level isn't enough. 

You'll need to use what you've discovered to identify the supernatural entity that has been following you. Choose correctly to unlock more stories and continue your journey toward escape. Make too many mistakes, and whatever has been hunting you gets the final say.
