Today would be a fine time to grab the free-to-download, free to play online multiplayer racing game KartRider, as the game's parent company, Nexon, is offering players a slew of Halloween-themed tricks and treats.
"Creepy Hollow," a new in-game area, winds through dark forests, around dark cliff roads, and through other spooky corridors, and includes two new tracks, "Hidden Monastery" (screen shots above), and "Fright Fight" (see below), while the new Pumpkin Racer E2 cart packs serious handling and speed in a funny-looking seasonal shell. Until Nov. 5, you can also face off against other racers in "The Great Pumpkin Chase" scavenger hunt, where you'll be rewarded with a spooky-ooky surprise for wrangling the most pumpkins from throughout the course. (Let's just say it's a real, er, head trip.)
As you might've expected, "free" isn't totally free, so while there's a ton of fun content available through the basic KartRider client, there are plenty more upgrades and other goodies to buy after you've gotten addicted to the game.
