It’s that time of the year when all that is dark and spooky is celebrated and kids dress up in their weirdest best to go trick or treating. Halloween is now not only in the neighborhood but also on our devices! Halloween, also called All Hallows’ Eve, falls on the eve of All Saints’ Day. While it has religious significance for some Christians, nowadays, it is observed largely as a secular celebration.
Most of the game applications are getting a themed update and offering a considerable discount on Halloween themed titles. Steam is offering up to 75% off on its spooky titles, Dead Trigger is getting its own Halloween update and new games are being added such as Zombiewood. In all this spook fest the bird slinging franchise Rovio couldn’t be behind!

Yet another trailer shows the iconic Millennium Falcon which might feature in the game.
