All Aboard Spooky Express — Play 25 Free Levels of Adorable Halloween Train Puzzles Now
Spooky Express is a new, family-friendly puzzle game that turns public transportation into a Halloween-themed routing challenge. It’s designed for players who want cute spooky vibes without graphic horror, and it’s available now on multiple platforms.
Spooky Express overview
Developed by Draknek & Friends, Spooky Express is a grid-based puzzle game about routing a train to deliver monsters to their proper homes. The presentation is bright and cartoonish, so it keeps the tone light while focusing on logic-based challenges. For PC users, the game is listed on Steam and can be found on its Steam store page.
How it plays
You lay tracks directly on bite-sized grids, and then your train follows those tracks to pick up and drop off passengers. Different passenger types have specific homes: zombies go to graves, and vampires go to coffins. Moreover, some interactions create restrictions — for example, demons will incinerate vampires on contact, and humans can be scared or even turned into zombies when they pass by monsters.
Because of those interactions, each level becomes an order-of-operations puzzle: you must plan routes that move monsters and humans without causing unwanted transformations or conflicts. The core track-laying feel is similar to other recent routing puzzles; for reference, it shares gameplay DNA with Railbound, though Spooky Express focuses on the monster interactions as its main twist.
Puzzle difficulty and hints
The game is easy to learn but can be challenging to master. Levels introduce new mechanics gradually, and puzzles often require experimentation to discover clever solutions. In addition, the game offers a hint system that reveals parts of the correct track to nudge players forward without spoiling the full solution.
Availability and demo
Spooky Express is available on Windows PC, and it’s also on mobile devices. Specifically, the game can be played on iOS and Android, where players can try approximately 25 levels for free before deciding whether to purchase the full experience. The mobile presentation emphasizes touch controls, letting you drag to lay track directly on the grid.
Overall, the game provides a seasonal, non-violent puzzle experience that still offers substantial challenge for fans of the genre.
