Spooky Season includes any game that involves a Halloween-esque event or area. Does the game have an official Halloween event? Perfect. Is there a section of the map that's just covered in skeletons and zombies? Can you wear 'spooky' skins at any time of the year? Are there undead, vampires, or other traditional monsters involved? This also sort of acts as an extra bonus genre - anything from the Horror genre of games can be scored for Spooky Season.
Gearing up for Hibernation is much simpler theme. All you need for this genre's points is a screenshot of a bear. Grizzly bear, polar bear, teddy bear, all of the above count!
