Read full descriptionHide full description
It is Halloween night and you have been challenged to defeat an evil witch. Shoot as many of her ghosts as you can to break the spell the witch has put on this cemetery. Challenge yourself and your friends to see who can shoot the most ghosts thus acquiring the highest score. The game will get more difficult as your score increases. You will have to get quicker to shoot the ghosts because more and more will appear. Try increasing your combo count by not missing any shots. You will get a special witch appearance if your combo reaches more than 25 hits. Also look for some funny things you can shoot in the game. Try shooting at the lantern, hand, crow and cat. Don't worry, you will not hurt them. You are using special Halloween bullets.
