->''Mollie Pop, our brave hero, sped toward the forest that borders her cozy suburban neighborhood. But why would she go to such a dark and dreary place, you might ask? A dare gone too far, proposed by her rambunctious friends, has pushed young Molli over the edge.''

Candies 'N Curses is a platformer developed by Tako Boy Studios. It was published for mobile devices on October 31st, 2018.

The story starts with Molli playing Truth or Dare with her friends. Molli is dared to visit a house that is rumored to be haunted. They intended it as a joke, but the brave Molli is eager to accept the challenge. Once she enters, the door shuts behind her, leaving her trapped and surrounded by ghosts, with only her flashlight to protect her.

To progress through the game, the player travels through different rooms, running and jumping between floors to vanquish ghosts with her flashlight. They can also collect charms which can be attached to the flashlight for various perks, and find treasure rooms with randomized candies or curses to give the player a fighting chance in future rooms.

!!Candies N Curses provides examples of:

* OneUp: The Halo Bar item and the Rally Charm have the same effect of reviving Molli with full health if she ever runs out.

* CanineCompanion: Equipping the Pup Charm will summon a ghost puppy named Goober to fight alongside Molli.

* CursedWithAwesome: The curse items come with benefits that tend to outweigh the consequences of picking them up.

* FinalBossPreview: After the tutorial, Bunber leaves with a warning that his master is coming. Said master is the final boss of the game. When he appears, only his eyes are visible before he kills Molli with a red beam.

* FriendlyGhost: While most ghosts are out for Molli, a few are willing to help her, such as Bunber and Churra.

* HauntedHouse: The game's setting.

* InfiniteFlashlight: Molli's flashlights are capable of staying bright through endless runs without any need to be recharged.

* MassMonsterSlaughterSidequest: All of Hunter's sidequests involve killing a specific type of ghost, often hundreds of times.

* MercyInvincibility: Molli retains invincibility briefly after taking damage. The duration can be increased with the Cloak Gumdrop and the Charisma Charm.

* MonsterCompendium: The journal, which lists every enemy and bosses, how many times they've been slain, and a brief description of each. It also contains info on items, charms, characters, and flashlights.

* NewGamePlus: The Curse Crusher mode, a harder version of the game unlocked after defeating the final boss, upon which the player is given the choice of replaying with all their obtained items. If not, they still have the choice of starting a run in Curse Crusher mode.

* TomeOfEldritchLore: Bunber implies there was a tome like this that turned the librarian into the Necro Witch.
