October 25, 2024 (Pittsburgh, P.A.) – October of 2025 will mark the 10 year anniversary of us making games as Retrotainment, and to celebrate we’ll be releasing Haunted: Halloween ’87 (Year of the Witch).
It will complete the Haunted: Halloween trilogy on the NES! Haunted: Halloween ’85 was our very first game as a team. It was released in 2015 and Haunted: Halloween ’86 (The Curse Of Possum Hollow) followed a year later.
If you’ve played either of the previous two games, you likely have a good idea what to expect in ’87 – more of the same but turned up to 11! If you haven’t, well then it’s high time you got into some 8-Bit Halloween adventures.
Don’t have an NES? We don’t judge; we port our games to various other platforms like Steam, Xbox and Switch so anyone can get their retro creep on.
See our Kickstarter page for tons of details and information.
– Broomstick Rides: Find the witch’s hidden stashes of broomsticks and take them for a ride to collect extra goodies. Collect crabapples to throw at enemies while flying.
– Upgradable Power Moves: Collect Spell Books to make your power moves extra explosive.
– Upgrade Smashable Objects: Collect Potions to give AOE damage to throwable objects, allowing you to decimate multiple enemies at once.
– Wall Jump: Grab onto walls and use them to reach higher ground.
– Blocking: Time your blocks and then counter attack.
Plus all the best moves from the previous games like Uppercuts, Flip Kicks, and Dash Attacks.
