Everyone needs a break from time to time, and Santa is no exception. It has been a very busy year, and Santa is taking a little holiday to restore his energy for Christmas Eve. But Santa enjoyed the sunshine so much that he decided not to return to the North Pole for Christmas! He told the elves to deliver the presents themselves this year.

But... Santa has the keys to the Magic Sleigh with him! No one can deliver that many presents on Christmas Eve without the Magic Sleigh!

Santa's last known location was a Beach Bar on a tropical island. You need to find Santa and convince him to come back before Christmas Eve, OR you need to get the keys to the Magic Sleigh and return to the North Pole in order to SAVE CHRISTMAS! Good luck! Everyone is counting on you!

Santa's Sleigh-cation is a point and click game played on the Telescape platform. It gives a 360 view of their actual escape room. You and your friends will be able to interact with items to solve the puzzles. You will be able to see your friends' cursors on your screen, you can zoom in, take items, and even move some things around. There will also be some audio/video elements to add to the (festive) atmosphere during the game!

This game felt perfect for families with kids to play during the holiday season. The puzzles were quite easy but some can still be challenging for newbie players. Some puzzles were quite tricky and required critical thinking (out of the box thinking). Hence, it is great that for every puzzle, a self help hint system was in place. -Feel free to use a clue whenever you are stuck.

The puzzles were mostly based on logic, a little math and mostly observational. For every puzzle, there will also be a little icon (for example a snowman) to hint at beginners that in order to solve this puzzle, the clue will be looking at that symbol. This is a little nice touch which I have not seen before in other Telescape games. This also proves that this game is targeted more for beginners and younger players.

Even though it was quite a breeze for me as a solo player, I can't deny that I still had fun playing this game. There were times that I still double checked my work, hesitated and thought about the puzzles. Brushing the difficulty aside, it is a very cute story with nice graphics along the way, music that sets the festive mood going and just a very pleasant and zen experience. Let this game bring you some holiday joy!
