About this board game

Tricky Treats is a 30-minute Halloween game for 2–4 players, released in 2025. Players dress up children in funny, colorful costumes, visit houses to collect sweets, and play tricks along the way.

Each player creates costumes on their own board by combining transparent cards featuring hats, tops, and bottoms. The goal is not limited to making complete matching outfits: clever players can also assemble strange combinations to gather useful icons.

Matching outfits can score points at the end of the game, rewarding players who coordinate their costume cards. Meanwhile, unusual combinations provide different icons that help during play, giving players more ways to collect sweets and play tricks.

  • Combine transparent cards to build children’s costumes.
  • Create matching outfits for end-game points.
  • Use weird combinations to collect useful icons.
  • Collect sweets and play tricks while visiting houses.
  • Trigger end-game scoring mechanisms through tricks.

Tricks are an important part of the game because they activate end-game scoring mechanisms. This gives players reasons to consider both their immediate opportunities and the scoring effects that will matter when the game concludes.

The game ends when one player has visited eight houses. With its mix of costume building, collection, tactical icon use, and changing scoring possibilities, Tricky Treats offers a playful Halloween challenge for groups of two to four.
