With Goosebumps 2: Haunted Halloween arriving in theaters this weekend, Sony Entertainment has teamed up with AR gaming app Krikey to bring Slappy, the franchise’s evil ventriloquist dummy, to life in *your* world. The first game in the new partnership, titled Trap Slappy Challenge, has just launched today!
Krikey, currently available on the App Store and Google Play, is the first to market with multi-player AR games built on AR Foundation – an SDK toolkit by Unity that combines ARKit from Apple and ARCore from Google. The Trap Slappy Challenge game will include blocks made of Goosebumps books. You must stack books on the shelf as fast as you can and place Slappy back inside his story before the clock runs out.
Two additional AR games are set to release during the home entertainment window.
On a related note, if you haven’t yet downloaded Pixowl’s mobile game Goosebumps: Horror Town, I highly recommend it. It’s *very* addictive and so much fun. Honestly, I’m obsessed.
