Pumpkin 3D is a pleasing holiday diversion, which allows you to carve a pumpkin and decorate a scene with fun items. When you’re finished with your spooky creation, take a snapshot and share with your friends and family. There are a variety of eyes, mouths, noses, and lids to choose from. Feel free to mix and match each feature making your pumpkin as goofy or scary as you like. When you’re done carving, top off your pumpkin with props like hats or glasses.
