Santaman Got the Blues

Post by eMTe »

The world went crazy this winter. It's snowing upwards! And only Santa himself can help.

Short Christmas game by Hayo van Reek and Meggie Plat known as The Peasants.

Took me a grand total of 10 minutes to play through, and that was with my daughter hanging from my arm wanting to play the game. A cute game with some X-mas feel to it. Very simple and very likeable.

You may be thankful, but after finishing the game my opinion is not that high. Controls are awful, movement slow, game is too easy (all Peasants' games share the same drawback if you feel that this is a drawback) and can be finished in one (first) go and ending is...well...leaves much to desire. There's Christmas mood in here, but all's about visuals and music, gameplay is uninspiring. It's far from best Hayo's games imo. ;)

Nice game regarding the graphics, the music and the christmas mood. But definitely too short, too easy and the sudden ending left me a bit unsatisfied.
