Trick-or-Treat Run
Halloween night in RiverTown: out of your driveway at dusk, past the RiverHouse and the river, over the River Bridge — all the way to the Hallowes Cove Academy Halloween party before it starts at 8:00. Houses with a porch light on are handing out candy — pull up at the curb, stop, and a kid hops out to trick-or-treat the door. A few porches glow gold: full-size bars. A few glow purple: tricks. And the gators at the road’s edge never take a night off — hug their side as you pass and one will bite the cart and stall you out. Give them a wide berth — and wave at the lemonade stands. The whole town is out in costume tonight: the streets belong to the trick-or-treaters, and the party at the school is the finish line.
Your ride
You roll out from your own driveway at dusk, one kid already aboard for the ride. Porch lights mean candy: stop at the curb by a lit house and tap the prompt — a kid runs to the door for +1–3 pieces. Golden porches hand out full-size bars (+10 pieces). Purple porches are tricks — knock on one and the gag springs on the kid at the door, costing a couple of seconds. Dark houses have nothing for you. Every piece is +15 pts — then make the party at the school by its 8:00 start, where Hank is handing out candy at the door.

HANDLING
◀ ▶ steer · hold GAS to go · BRAKE to slow.
Keys: W / ↑ gas · S / ↓ brake · A / D or ◀ ▶ steer. The party starts at 8:00 PM — the clock at the top starts at 7:52, and every second to spare pays. Lit porches are candy — stop ON THE STREET at the curb and tap TRICK-OR-TREAT (or press E): a kid hops out and runs to the door, +15 pts a piece; gold porches are full-size bars (+10 pieces), purple porches are tricks that spring a cobweb gag on the kid at the door. Driving through the glow collects nothing — porches are served on foot. Hold BRAKE to back up — brake to a stop, keep holding, and the cart reverses. Three solid hits and the cart stalls out — a couple of dead seconds while your crew groans. And mind the river: drive into the water and the cart sinks — everybody climbs out, the clock eats +5 seconds, and you finish the run SOAKED.
