About The Chaser and the Pumpkin
Hey Mr. Pumpkin you need to escape from the Chaser! Try to resit the more you can and complete all 20 Levels! Enjoy this halloween season with this great game!
How to play The Chaser and the Pumpkin
The rules land within the first few seconds of play. 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.

Why it is worth playing
The appeal here is the loop: a short round, a clear result, and an obvious idea about what to do differently next time. A browser game does not need to be more than that.
