This a game for all ages where you take control of Santa on his voyage over the edge and help him to get his own back on various toys.
Designed as a parody of the current obsession with all those sad toy crazes we have to endure (Teletubbies, Pokémon, Barney etc), you take control of Father Christmas on his hellbent mission of revenge against the toys.

Flying through the sky in his sleigh equipped with a fearsome weapon - a viscous metal blade launcher - you help in his quest to rid the skies of these awful toys as they fly straight at you. They come thick and fast, in various attack formations, desperate to destroy Santa before he destroys them.

Get to the end of a level and you're faced with the standard end-of-level baddie, although in this game these come in the form of giant toys with lethal weapons!

The game is well designed too, complete with some great Christmas music, sound effects (bells, jingles and explosions), and a colourful backdrop of a classic American skyline.

Verdict

This is an amusing game that will keep your finger on the trigger throughout the Christmas period, and beyond.
