It’s Christmas Eve and Santa and the Elves are preparing the sleigh for departure. Thousands of presents have already been loaded up but unless your team can finish preparing the final gifts there will be some children on the nice list that will be disappointed on Christmas morning! It should be an easy job but Santa likes to keep the elves on their toes and finding the label for each gift is going to be a big challenge.

This is a points based game so your team has the whole hour to load as many gifts onto the sleigh as possible. Puzzles range in difficulty from family friendly to challenging for experienced players. Will your team be the first to complete them all?

value for moneyoriginal

I took this game on for a second time (following completing it last year with a different partner) the idea is very complex, 86 puzzles, 3 different levels of puzzles all worth different points. Complete the puzzle, add the correct name and post it to Santa - if you're right you get points, if you're wrong it comes back. It's chaos, it's hectic, it's a game everyone can try and you will always get a score! 

Great fun Christmas game!!

Not for the faint hearted, but only if the thought of over 80 puzzles make you weak at the knees.  There are puzzles to solve everywhere that you can complete in a non-linear fashion, can't solve one, find another and they can add more.  There is an added complication that each present needs to have the right name label attached before being dispatched to Santa for delivery, but if you get it wrong, back it comes.  This is a great concept and is executed well, there are puzzles for all ages (you can the difficulty level of the puzzle by the bow on top).
