Google Doodles have a long history of awesome content, and today’s Halloween entry is another amazing one.

The Doodle starts off with some adorable animation showing the characters from 2016’s Halloween Doodle, “Magic Cat Academy.”

Then, the game truly begins. Literally!

The Doodle switches to a game interface where users must draw symbols over ghostly enemies in order to fend them off.

Five different levels are included in the game, with a plethora of foes to battle and some quirky and cool bosses.

The Doodle, titled “Magic Cat Academy 2,” comes from a team of in-house designers and programmers at Google, including artwork by Olivia When, Juliana Chen, and Alyssa Winans.

Google Doodles are often memorable, interactive experiences, including a mini-game based on the 50th anniversary of Doctor Who, a celebratory animation and game for composer Ludwig van Beethoven, and a compact version of Pac-Man to honour the iconic arcade game’s 30th anniversary.

Our Victoria Buzz team spent a solid 30 minutes carefully researching today’s mini-game and the 2016 version. In review, we believe the 2020 version perfects the 2016 formula.
