ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Candy Halloween Games Match 3 holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Candy Halloween Games Match 3 has 2.5K ratings behind it against 17, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 92% of Hidden Objects Halloween Ghost's written reviews are positive against 78% of Candy Halloween Games Match 3's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Hidden Objects Halloween Ghost ships an update every 26 months, Candy Halloween Games Match 3 every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 23, 2026 and October 29, 2026 respectively.
