Halloween Poppp

Halloween Poppp is a puzzle game in which you match spirit orbs to clear them from a 9×9 board. As a new apprentice wizard, you must stop the candy cellar from overflowing during the ghosts’ Halloween party, using orb-matching and magical tools. The story features pumpkin lanterns, mischievous ghosts, a witch who leads the coven and a legendary Candy Sprite said to appear when a combo continues under the full moon.

Match the orbs

Move an orb by selecting it and clicking an empty cell; the move fails if its path is blocked. Match five or more orbs of the same color in a straight horizontal, vertical or diagonal line to clear them and score points. A wild Sun Orb on the board can stand in for any color.

If a move does not create a match, new orbs drop onto the board from the preview area. The round ends when the board is full and no moves remain, but tools can help you recover. The Magnifier shows where new orbs will land, and the Hourglass freezes new spawns for five turns.

Magical tools

The ten tools have gem costs that vary by difficulty:

• Candy: clear one orb.
• Magnifier: reveal the landing spots of upcoming orbs.
• Capsule: clear two orbs of the same color.
• Teleport: move an orb to any empty cell, ignoring obstacles.
• Clone: copy an orb to a target position.
• Bomb: clear a 3×3 area.
• Fireball: clear a full row or column in the chosen direction.
• Missile: clear every orb of one color across the board.
• Lightning: strike randomly and eliminate about half of the orbs.
• Hourglass: freeze new orb spawns for five turns.

Combos and gems

Consecutive clears build a combo, multiplying your score and gem rewards while making the sound and visual effects more pronounced. From a 3-combo, you can randomly earn free tools; a combo of 7 or higher grants Lightning. Using a tool to clear orbs breaks the combo.

Cleared orbs drop gems, which you use to buy tools. Cumulative clears raise your Gem Level from 1 to 10, increasing the number of gems each elimination drops.
