Overview

Halloween night takes a sinister turn in Trick or Eat, a co-op action game from Nether Tree Games. Real monsters emerge from graves, crypts, manholes, and rifts, and they aren't interested in candy—they want to eat whoever answers the door.

As the brave protector of the neighborhood, you must race against time to save families and keep trick-or-treaters safe. Released on October 20, 2026, this game blends beat 'em up combat with third-person shooting in a stylized, cartoonish world.

Highlights

  • Every Knock Is a Countdown: When a monster knocks, a timer starts. Reach the door in time to save the family inside; fail, and the lights go out. This creates a constant sense of urgency and strategic prioritization.
  • Solo or Co-op with Friends: Play alone or team up online with up to three other players via Steam. The game supports both single-player and online PvP, offering flexibility in how you tackle the Halloween chaos.
  • 16 Playable Classes: Choose from 16 distinct classes, each with unique abilities and playstyles, allowing for varied approaches to combat and teamwork.

Who It's For

Trick or Eat is perfect for fans of action roguelikes, hack-and-slash brawlers, and third-person shooters who enjoy a festive, slightly spooky atmosphere. The cartoonish violence and lack of harm to human characters make it suitable for a broad audience, including those who prefer lighter horror themes.

It's also a great pick for groups looking for a cooperative online experience with a Halloween twist.
