Spookitaire: Cold Case has you investigating three distinct cases, the first of which centres around Ashgrove Concert Hall and the death of its artistic director.

Halloween also sees the introduction of Solitaire Clash's social media event, which encourages you to follow their accounts, find clues and leave a theory to win limited-time rewards in Solitaire Clash. Sure, it's not exactly going to be Poirot-level conundrums, but it's a good way to get those tiny grey cells moving regardless.

While it doesn't quite have the flair of Avia Games' past collaboration for the State Fair at Texas, a popular Halloween pastime for residents of the state, this is still a pretty fun little event for fans of Solitaire Clash to jump into.

The Halloween mechanics mainly focus on minigames and other oddities, but there're also some interesting new additions such as Vase of Fortune which has a theme based around the Day of the Dead festival. So if you're a Solitaire Clash fan looking to get into the Halloween spirit, then the Spookitaire event is definitely one to jump into!
