ScareZone: Haunted Attraction Tycoon
Build the haunted attraction of your nightmares! Design chilling walkthroughs, fill them with animatronics and actors, then watch your victims — er, guests — scream their way through your twisted creation. Grow your empire season after season and prove you have the guts to be a world-class haunter.
Produced by a team with decades of experience in haunts and themed entertainment, this creative tycoon game lets you turn an empty warehouse or field into a world of horrors. Design your layout, fill it with perfectly placed scares and atmospheric lighting, audio, and decor. Then hire a talented crew of scare actors and unleash your twisted creation upon the general public.
Design Your Layout
Start with a blank space — a warehouse, a shuttered store, maybe even a soundstage — and transform it into a functional haunted attraction. Lay out your guest path, build and theme your walls, and fill every hallway and corner with props, decor, and atmospheric touches that bring your sinister vision to life.
Engineer the Fear
Place actor-led scares and animatronics along the path and craft elaborate sequences with strategic timing and placement. Chain scare and distraction combos, and dial in every room until guests are sprinting for the chicken exits. (Sorry, no refunds.)
Set the Stage
Dial up your haunt's atmosphere and fear levels with ambient lighting and sound. Use custom trigger sequences to sync lighting, animatronics, and even scare actors. And of course, you can't forget fog, air cannons, or smells (did they say smells?). Combine effects to recreate classic haunt illusions such as Pepper's Ghost, blacklight rooms, the laser swamp, and much more.
Open the Gates!
Open the gates and watch the spooky season chaos unfold. Manage ticket pricing, marketing, and the flow of guests through your haunt while keeping the whole operation afloat as actors tire out and complain, animatronics break, or security incidents slow the line to a crawl. If you can prove yourself a creative and profitable haunter, bigger opportunities are on the horizon.
