Hauntworks is a dark-comedy haunted-house management sim where you build an automated scare factory. Your undertakers harvest human reactions like screams, vomit, and laughter as physical resources, which you pipe through production chains to appease otherworldly Patrons and escape limbo.

  • 01 · Run a haunted house (scares are the product)
  • 02 · Harvest four resources (screams, laughs, vomit, mind shards)
  • 03 · Feed five demanding Patrons (competing appetites)
  • 04 · Recruit monstrous staff (who might kill the guests)
  • 05 · Stay ahead of the Bureau (three bodies a cycle, then audits)
  • 06 · Assemble the gate (your way out)
