Howling Woods

A Halloween town builder

Howling Woods is a cozy Halloween town builder for PC, set in a clearing in the woods. You lay paths and paint plots, then houses, shops and workshops appear as the town fills in. There’s no money to manage, no timers or disasters, and no way to fail.

Plots come in three types: haunts for homes, curios for shops and breweries for workshops. You can choose from nine curio trades and six workshop types, including potions, coffins, fortune tellers, a cider press and toffee works. Four path styles are available: trail, dirt, stone and cobble. Paving a street also adds street lamps.
