"Spooky New Escape Room Puzzler 'The Haunted Carnival' Now on Android"

Ever wondered what happens when you dim the lights at a carnival and add a dash of murderous clowns? The Haunted Carnival, a thrilling escape room-style puzzler now available on Android, is here to answer that question. Instead of a fun day out, you'll find yourself trapped in the eerie atmosphere of the titular carnival, tasked with one goal: escape.

Much like the point-and-click adventures of yesteryear, such as last week's Legacy Reawakening, The Haunted Carnival offers a fully rendered carnival environment for you to explore at your own pace. However, don't expect a seamless world; the game is cleverly divided into five distinct rooms, each containing five unique puzzles that stand between you and freedom. If clowns give you the creeps, you might want to steer clear, as The Haunted Carnival promises not only challenging puzzles but also a hefty dose of spookiness.

**Admit one**

Initially, I was a bit skeptical upon noticing the use of AI-generated art in the game's icon. However, my concerns quickly dissipated upon discovering the actual gameplay, which features delightful, crunchy low-poly environments that are visually appealing and engaging. While I haven't delved deep into the puzzles themselves, if they're crafted with the same care as the environment design, The Haunted Carnival is certainly worth exploring.
