If you're a fan of eerie atmospheres and puzzling challenges, the newly released Android game, *The Haunted Carnival*, might just be your next thrilling adventure. This escape room-style puzzler drops you right into the heart of a chilling carnival with a single goal: to escape. But don't expect a walk in the park; the carnival is divided into five distinct rooms, each packed with five unique puzzles that stand between you and freedom.
Much like the point-and-click adventures we covered last week with *Legacy Reawakening*, *The Haunted Carnival* allows you to explore a fully rendered, albeit spooky, carnival environment at your own pace. The game promises not only an engaging puzzle experience but also a good dose of spine-tingling suspense. If clowns send shivers down your spine, you might want to approach this game with caution.
**Admit one**
Initially, I had my doubts about *The Haunted Carnival*, especially upon noticing the use of AI-generated art in the game's icon. However, my skepticism quickly turned to appreciation upon diving into the actual gameplay. The game features beautifully crafted low-poly environments that are both visually appealing and immersive.
While I haven't had the chance to dive deep into the puzzles myself, the quality of the environment design gives me confidence that the puzzles will be just as engaging and well-crafted.
