Mobile publisher PlayDucky and Mob Entertainment are teaming up to bring the horror phenomenon Poppy Playtime into the ragdoll physics sandbox hit Melon Sandbox for a limited-time Halloween crossover.
Running Oct. 23 through Nov. 2, the event lets players unleash iconic Poppy Playtime mascots—including Huggy Wuggy, Mommy Long Legs, Boxy Boo, and The Prototype—within a spooky-themed board game event featuring exclusive in-game rewards.
“We’re thrilled to welcome the Poppy Playtime characters into Melon Sandbox,” said Ivan Fedyanin, founder of PlayDucky. “Our players love experimenting, building, and creating their own stories, and giving them the chance to do that with such iconic characters opens up a whole new world of possibilities. We can’t wait to see the creativity our community brings to this collaboration!”
The partnership naturally aligns both franchises. Melon Sandbox boasts a global audience of over 150 million players, driven largely by Gen Z and Gen Alpha creators, who use the game’s open-ended physics engine to build chaotic, dark, and unpredictable scenarios. Blending Mob Entertainment’s mascot horror lore with PlayDucky’s sandbox mechanics directly feeds that demand for community-driven sandbox horror.
The in-game scares will peak on Halloween night. Melon Sandbox is available free to play on iOS, Android, and web browsers.
