Spooky Express: Whistle-Stop Terror Tour Launches

• Spooky Express is available now on iOS and Android.
• Try this Halloween-themed puzzler for free before you buy.
• Guide monsters and humans to the finish line by solving clever puzzles.

We’re speeding full throttle toward Halloween. If you want to get into the spirit early, maybe it's time to let the train take the strain? That’s exactly what Spooky Express offers, along with a solid and enjoyable puzzle experience! Now on iOS and Android, the game has plenty to delight horror and puzzle enthusiasts alike.

You might have already seen Jupiter’s glowing review of Spooky Express. In this straightforward train puzzler—free to try before purchase—your job is to transport humans and monsters along rail lines to their correct destinations. Deliver vampires to coffins, zombies to graves, and so forth.

But as Jupiter notes, this spiritual successor to developer Draknek & Friends’ earlier title, Cosmic Express, adds a twist. You can’t swap passengers mid-route, so you’ll need to plan carefully and time your moves, using tricks like scaring humans onto train cars to navigate around obstacles.

All Aboard

Thanks to its charming visuals and Halloween theme, Spooky Express is shaping up to be ideal holiday entertainment. It features comic-style cutscenes by creators David Hellman and Zac Gorman, plus an irresistibly catchy soundtrack from Priscilla Snow—plenty of reasons to dive in.

Without a doubt, the puzzles here are among the finest you’ll find on mobile. Easy to grasp yet challenging to master, they’re packed with moving parts (pun somewhat intended) that introduce fresh twists in every level as you journey through Trainsylvania in Spooky Express.
