Spellsquares: Cursed Moon

The story has a scary, fantastical theme about an evil wizard who has cursed the moon. One scene takes place in a graveyard. After solving two puzzles, coats of armor representing knights crumple to the ground. One part of the story involves putting a mind control helmet on a mouse to access a room.

A few of the written notes from the wizard and the player's character contain mild language, such as "Eat it, knight!" or "what a nut!"

Parents need to know that Spellsquares: Cursed Moon is a series of word puzzles set to the backdrop of a spooky story.

In addition to solving puzzles, players collect hidden objects and use some problem-solving skills. Before starting the story, players can choose a difficulty level, and there are hints throughout the game. In quick mode, there are 60 additional puzzles to solve. The story's theme and music are a bit eerie, but there is no direct violence or mature content, and the game is self-contained and safe for younger players.
