About the Game

Boo Hunt

You love Halloween and miss the nostalgic feeling of score-competitive arcade shooters?

Boo Hunt just got its biggest update yet!

3 Maps. 3 Bosses. 3 Game Modes. Traps everywhere.

Three Unique Maps

Battle through Witchwood — a dark cursed forest crawling with glowing creatures. Brave The Frozenlands — an icy wasteland where the cold slows everything down. Survive Brimstone Hollow — a hellish inferno where lava pools and fire traps will finish what the demons started.

Interactive Traps

Each map is packed with traps you can trigger by shooting — slow down enemies, speed up your escape, or catch a crowd in a deadly snare. Use them wisely or get caught in your own trap.

Bosses

Every map has its own boss — powerful, unique creatures that demand more than just spraying bullets. Learn their patterns, hit their weak points, and take them down.

3 Game Modes — 3 Separate Leaderboards

Classic Mode: The original wave shooter. Survive as long as you can and climb the global scoreboard.

Time Attack Mode: Race against the clock. Every kill counts — every second matters.

Challenge Mode: Complete unique objectives across waves. The harder you push, the higher you score.

Each mode has its own global leaderboard — grind your rank separately in every mode.

Keep an eye out for upgrades that give you speed, score, jumping bonuses, and extra health right when you feel like everything is over! As well as powerful weapons that help you break through the crowds!

Compete with your friends across the globe and see just how good you are at hunting with your Halloween spirit!
