About Pumpkin Story
A Pumpkin Story is a fun adventure ride of the little pumpkin in this Halloween season. Here in this fun adventure game, the little pumpkin is moving around to collect the keys to unlock the portals for the exits. For that pumpkin needs to collect the key on the way, but we all know the hurdles there in the abandoned area, but some are for your convenience, use the blocks to climb up and collect the keys and reach the end-fire to complete the level.
How to play Pumpkin Story
Nothing here needs explaining twice. Keep a hand on the arrow keys / WASD; everything else is listed in the controls table. The game is wide rather than tall — fullscreen is worth it on a monitor, and on a phone the picture is much better sideways. The second run is always better than the first — that is the whole learning curve.
