How to play
- Hold to smash down through the peppermint and candy corn. Let go to bounce.
- Always let go over the dark licorice: it is too chewy to smash.
- Hold through the candy corn to fill a Sugar Rush, then blast through the rainbow licorice.
- Land on the big pumpkin at the bottom to finish the tower.
- Kids Mode (tap the turtle): the licorice bounces you back, and every tower can be finished.
Controls
- Phone, tablet or mouse: Hold your finger (or the mouse button) down anywhere to smash down, and let go to bounce.
- Keyboard: Hold Space, ↓ or S to smash down, and let go to bounce. Esc or P pauses.
- Gamepad: Hold A or RT to smash down, and let go to bounce. Start pauses.
Tips
- Candy corn fills the Sugar Rush meter much faster than peppermint, and it never hides any licorice.
- When the licorice turns dark again, your Sugar Rush is over, so get ready to let go.
- Stars come from speed, so long holds and fewer bounces get you to the bottom fast for three stars.
- Each tower is the same every time, so watch how the licorice lines up and learn the pattern.

Trick or treat? Smash your way down the sweetest tower of Halloween!

Candy Helix is a one-touch arcade game. A tall candy tower spins around a striped candy stick, and your little pumpkin sits on top. Hold anywhere to smash down through the peppermint and candy corn. Let go and the pumpkin bounces, which is exactly what you want over the dark licorice: licorice is far too chewy to smash.
Keep holding through a stack of candy corn to fill up a Sugar Rush. Every licorice wheel turns rainbow, and your pumpkin blasts straight through the licorice in a shower of sprinkles. Land on the big smiling pumpkin at the bottom and watch its face light up as candy flies everywhere. Friendly bats and ghosts cheer you on all the way down.
Kids Mode (tap the turtle) is made for younger players: the licorice bounces your pumpkin instead of stopping it, so every tower can be finished.
Every tower spins a little faster than the last. Grab a wrapped sweet for a bubble-gum bubble that saves you once, and look out for a Treat Tower every fifth level. Collect coins and swap your pumpkin for a Marshmallow Ghost, Gumball, Candy Apple, Moon Cookie or Jawbreaker. No sign-up and no download: it runs in your browser on phones, tablets and computers.
