Gloomy Tales 1: Extra brings the Puzzle genre to life, and throws up exciting challenges for gamers. Developed by Do Games Limited, this Android game is best experienced on BlueStacks, the World’s #1 app player for PC and Mac users.
Gloomy Tales 1: Extra plays like a Halloween ghost story wrapped in a hidden object adventure. The hook is great. A small town party, a broken doll costume that truly is cursed, and a slick villain running a costume shop while trying to wake the Spirit of Halloween and turn everyone into puppets. The tone leans spooky without being gruesome, with lots of lantern light, puppet strings, and that cool orange-and-violet look. Gameplay is the usual hidden object mix, but polished. Search busy scenes for tiny items, piece together tools, and plug through mini puzzles that flip between relaxed and surprisingly clever. Expect symbol locks, pattern dials, and those set-this-here-then-that-there chains that feel cozy to work through.
It has side goals too. There are Halloween collectibles and achievements tucked around scenes, so there is a reason to poke every corner. The story moves fast and does not waste time, and the cast includes a dressmaker caught up in the mess who gives the plot a bit of heart. Navigation is simple and there is enough guidance that it rarely feels unfair. On PC with BlueStacks, the bigger screen helps a lot with item spotting, and clicking through scenes with a mouse feels natural for this genre. It is a compact chapter, good for a night in, with moody music, theatrical locations, and just enough twists to keep opening one more door even when the town clearly wants everyone to go home.
