How it plays

You are a little witch hunting for sweets on Halloween night. Hit a house with eggs three times to take its sweets and turn it to your side. Shoot your opponent’s houses to untag and turn them. Tagged houses spawn zombie minions that seek out and harass your enemy, and shooting zombies earns points, sweets and a score multiplier.

Whoever collects the most candy wins.
