The Halloween update was an event in Super Cat Tales: PAWS that was released on October 11, 2023. It added new hats, a minigame, a special quest and decorations related to the Halloween occasion. The Halloween event ended on November 6, 2023 with the release of version 1.0.61 on Android and 1.0.60 on iOS. Decorations and pumpkins were removed, but the minigame Flappy Bat is still playable in the arcade. Any Halloween hats the player purchased before the end of the event would still be kept in their inventory.

Features[edit]

The Halloween update included additions to the current levels of the game.

Hats[edit]

Four Halloween hats were made available in the shop. The pumpkin mask, monster mask and voodoo hat were purchasable with coins while the skull mask still remains free for VIP players.

Flappy Bat[edit]

Main article: Flappy Bat

The pink arcade cabinet on the far right of the arcade building has a minigame called Flappy Bat, which is a Flappy Bird imitation with a bat flying through gaps in castle buildings instead of a bird through gaps in pipes.

Pumpkin quest[edit]

Ten pumpkins were placed across ten different levels and would light up when the player interacted with them. The player could talk to Olli at the P.A.W.S. Base to keep track of their progress, though talking to Olli was not necessary to initiate the quest. Some pumpkin locations were hinted at by their presence on the level select maps. The game counted the pumpkin as being found as soon as the player made contact with them, and finishing a level was not necessary to save progress on the quest.
