Pumpkin Smash 2 explodes into the Windows Phone marketplace

If you missed the original Pumpkin Smash then you’re really missing out but it has over 100 reviews and 4 stars. Well it’s back and it’s grown up. The original version had increasing levels of attacks as ghosts and zombies came in swarms. Well this version doubles down on that  hit and then adds 3D dual stick shooting action when the attack goes outdoors. The end result is a varied gameplay that keeps you playing and it’s pretty awesome. I’ve already lost a battery to it and I’m just getting warmed up. The 3D graphics, the music…the whole thing comes together like a top notch game from any perspective.

Here’s the full description:

Pumpkin Smash 2 is the sequel to last year’s "smash" hit! The ghouls and ghosts are back to take your candy, and only you can help Bones McScaryPants keep it from them.
