$9.99Howling Woods
Lay out paths and plots in a woodland clearing and watch a Halloween town build itself: crooked houses, curio shops, goblins and witches moving in. No money, no timers, no way to fail. Just you, the fog, and streets that get grander the spookier they get.
Is Howling Woods worth it?
Howling Woods is worth it if…
- you want a town builder with no budgets, timers, or disasters
- you like decorating for Halloween and keeping the lights on past midnight
- you enjoy cute, colorful spooks: goblins, ghosts, candy piles, pumpkin rows
- you like tinkering with mood, light, and camera until a street looks right

Paint plots and let the town build itself
You paint three kinds of plots — haunts for homes, curios for shops, breweries for workshops — then lay trail, dirt, stone, or cobble between them. The town handles construction: houses lean upward, shops open shutters, street lamps appear along paved streets.
Nine curio trades and six workshops fill the gaps, from potions and coffins to fortune tellers, cider presses, and toffee works. You shape hills, dig black ponds, and plant woods, graves, and cornfields around it all. A dread map shows which corners run cold and which ones truly hum.
Spookier streets, stranger neighbors
Fifteen set pieces are open from the start: graveyard, haunted manor, witch's cauldron, belfry, hay maze, mausoleum, stolen candy pile, and more. Each one radiates dread, and frightful streets answer with more lights, more carved pumpkins, and taller buildings.
Scarier streets draw stranger tenants — goblins, ghosts, skeletons, witches, banshees, werewolves. Goblin children run the hay maze with lanterns while crows raid the candy pile and bats circle the belfry. Enough fright, and your humble clearing grows all the way into the Howling Woods themselves.
What else can you change in Howling Woods?
Can you control the night itself?
Yes. You pick the moon — new, half, full, or a slow cycle — plus how spooky the weather gets, from a calm night to fog and lightning.
How do you keep track of who lives there?
The Tome holds the town register, listing your residents as they move in.
Can you take pictures of your town?
It is made for saving a favorite street corner once the lamps, pumpkins, and fog line up the way you like.
How many towns can you keep?
That leaves room to try separate ideas — one built around the manor and mausoleum, another around cornfields and cider — without paving over a favorite.
