Slayaway Camp is brilliant. It takes the sliding block puzzle genre and injects it with an absolutely hilarious, blocky 1980s slasher movie aesthetic. Figuring out the exact sequence of moves to slide Skullface around the map to take out the camp counselors without getting trapped is immensely satisfying.
The difficulty curve is absolutely spot on. The game introduces new mechanics—like cops, landmines, and cats you aren't supposed to hurt—at just the right pace to keep your brain engaged. The 'Gorepack' kill animations are surprisingly funny due to the voxel art style. Highly recommended for puzzle fans!
Dinsun here. This is how you do a mobile puzzle game. It takes a simple, ancient mechanic—sliding until you hit a wall—and gives it a thematic coat of paint that actually works. The 80s horror aesthetic is spot on, from the VHS-style menus to the synth-heavy music. The puzzles are genuinely challenging in the later 'movies,' and the 'Gorepacks' you unlock are a fun, albeit juvenile, reward for efficiency. It’s smart, it’s stylish, and it doesn't take itself too seriously. If you can handle the blocky blood, it’s one of the best logic games on the platform.
Performance: Rock solid. The voxel art looks great and doesn't stress the GPU.
Buy if: You love retro horror movies and challenging, logic-based puzzles.
Skip if: You want a narrative-heavy horror game or dislike 'sliding block' mechanics.
Available on: iPhone, iPad, iPod

Slide across the map to eliminate all counselors, then find your way to the pentagram exit to complete the scene.
No, the game uses blocky, Minecraft-style voxel graphics, making the gore comical and cartoonish rather than realistic.
