Everybody dressed up as characters from classic adventure games so it was natural that, instead of a toon, this year's Ween update would be a playable game in the style of those old point n' clicks!

Help Homestar find the other characters so he can get their costumes wrong like always!

==Fun Facts==
===Trivia===
*The itch.io description reads "A short Halloween point n' click starring the [[dumb animal characters]] of HomestarRunner.com".
*The "More information" box lists the status as "Prototype", the platforms as "HTML5", the author as "Videlectrix", the genre as "Adventure", and the tags "Halloween", "homestar-runner", and "strong-bad".

===Remarks===
*The pause menu contains "Resume", "Options", and "Quit". In the options menu, you can adjust speech volume, music volume, and SFX volume, set the language, and toggle subtitles. Changing the speech volume or subtitles does nothing, and the language can only be set to "Original".
*You can ask The Poopsmith about Homsar, even if you have already found him, with no reaction from The Poopsmith. However, Strong Bad does note if you already found The Cheat.

===Glitches===
*Pausing the game using the "Pause" button causes the inventory to disappear until you enter certain rooms.

===Inside References===
*The gameplay music is a remix of the theme from [[3 Times Halloween Funjob]]. 
** In another reference to this cartoon, Homestar knocks on Marzipan's front door by banging his head against it.
*Actions are referred to as "Syd Getman", "Syd Useman", and "Syd Bounceman", a reference to [[Homestar Runner's "Sid" game]] from the [[Strong Bad Email]] [[date]].
*Homestar mentions [[witch's brew]] to Strong Sad and Strong Mad.
*Homestar says "I found you totally found you" to Strong Sad, a line previously said in [[hiding]].
*The Strong Mad Oyster Smoothie Breath Caked Armpit Latte comes from [[The House That Gave Sucky Tricks]].
*Coach Z was previously shown to be a resident of the [[Gremlin]] in [[sbemail206]].
*The theme from [[Jibblies 2]] plays when Strong Mad is shown the Jibblies Painting.
*Homestar tells Bubs a tale about Taco-Man, continuing a joke from [[Halloween Potion-ma-jig]].
*Homestar's line "Busted his head, man. Busted his head." is from [[The Baloneyman]], when he was indulging in "summer talk" with Strong Bad about kids getting hurt on bikes.
*As in [[The Homestar Runner Enters the Spooky Woods]], Marzipan dresses up as what Strong Sad told her to, and Strong Mad attempts and fails to make a correct reference to his costume.
*Homestar mistakenly thinks Coach Z is dressing up as Queen Latifah "again", referring to his costume in [[Happy Hallow-Day]].
*Homestar describes the King of Town's Antwerp costume as "no-armed space Grimace", a reference to Strong Bad mentioning "four-armed Grimace" in [[best thing]].
*When he finds the King of Town bouncing on a trampoline, Homestar asks if he's trying to "twees it out", a reference to [[lady fan]].
*If Homestar tries to examine the note on the back door of Bubs' Concession Stand from the front, he'll say he can't make it out, and lament that [[Original Bubs]] would be able to see it from over here.
*Homestar mentions his tendency to make [[I really like your costume|confident]] absurd [[What are you supposed to be?|guesses]] of the other characters' costumes.   

===Real-World References===
*Homestar suggests that he's "selling these fine leather jackets", a [[LucasArts]] joke previously referenced in [[Halloween Potion-ma-jig]].
*To keep with his tradition of going as "[[rapping|rappers]]" for Halloween, Coach Z says ''Malcolm's Revenge'' had "a slammin [[YouTube:txfezRDaJ4s|hip hop theme song]]".
