Etymology

This is a Halloween-inspired seed name that came a little too late because of a small once-in-a-decade hurricane that wiped out my power grid. But you know what they say: "better late than never".

My Review

Here it is, people. The very first premium seed I've found in the post-update era. I'm very excited and you should be too because this thing is fantastic. The northwest corner of the map is riddled with nice mountains, buttes, floaters, and a magnificent shaded cove. There's a hillside village -- easily defensible. This level contains an oddly disproportionate number of pumpkins. Even where there aren't mountains, the forests and arctic regions are covered in interesting formations and full of nooks and crannies.

This seed had so many interesting things above ground that I had very little time to explore underground, so this seed probably contains a lot more stuff than is listed below. Amazing and worth at least one play-through.
