Trick or Treat is a Halloween-based Wii U game and one of the few projects created by DohIMissed (t∣b∣c) and T0M.V.12 (t∣b∣c). It features Ghuplight and his friend Pete trying to stop an evil demon spirit, but most of all, save Halloween.
Plot[]
A long time ago, there was a small village called Twilight Square. The habitans of this village were monsters of all sorts; witches, ghosts, werewolfs, etcetra. Everyone lived in peace. Once in a year, it was Halloween, a day where everyone's trying to scare each other, or go around the village for candy. It was the most wonderful day in the year.
It was almost Halloween when Ghuplight returned from his vacation at the Spooky Summit. When he arrived at the little town, he was shocked. Instead of seeing lights and decorations, everyone acted like nothing special was going on. His friend, Pete, ran into him, telling that a mysterious spirit hypnotized the villagers to forget Halloween. With only a few days left until Halloween, it's up to the spooky duo to decorate the whole town to break the curse of the evil spirit.
Gameplay[]
The town acts as the world the player plays in. Minigames are all over the town, which have to be cleared to proceed in the game. The player can walk around freely, and simply start a minigame by walking to its location and press a button when standing in the spot. The player can discover the town's many secrets, which include walking into houses to find hidden items and such. Each minigame has different gameplay, and they mostly make good use of the Wii U's Gamepad. After 10 minigames are cleared, a villain enters the town, and has to be found and defeated. A boss battle's gameplay is much as in a RPG game, but in 3D. The player and villain attack in turns, but more like in 3D platformers, having several button combinations for attacks instead of selecting it in a menu. Also, the player can walk around freely in a battle. After a boss is defeated, 10 new minigames will appear in the town.
