About this game
Haunted Paws is a cooperative adventure that casts two puppies as unlikely heroes on a mission to save their owner from the supernatural forces lurking in a sprawling haunted mansion. Players can jump in locally or online, with Steam's Friend's Pass allowing one owner to invite a partner at no extra cost. Customize your puppy's appearance before venturing into rooms filled with spooky surprises and tangled mysteries.

Gameplay revolves around teamwork-driven puzzle-solving and combat encounters that demand close coordination. Each puppy contributes unique actions to unlock passages, manipulate objects, and fend off evil creatures that guard the mansion's secrets. Communication becomes essential as environmental challenges require both players to act in sync.
The mansion's layout encourages exploration and experimentation, rewarding pairs who communicate clearly and adapt their strategies. Achievement hunters and completionists will find added replay value in uncovering every hidden corner. Its cozy aesthetic and approachable difficulty curve make it a natural fit for friends seeking a lighthearted yet engaging cooperative experience.
