To play, you must print out all the game pieces and hide them within a playing area. Players are divided into teams and you must discover who kidnapped Santa, how they kidnapped him, and where the culprit elf is hiding. Along the way, you can find point card and situation cards. Point cards can be used to buy clues from other teams. Situation cards can make the game funnier by the situations on the card, and the player must act the situation out.
For my kids, ages 8, 11, and 15, this game got mixed reviews. The preparation can be time consuming...everything needs to be cut out and placed in individual envelopes, then those envelopes need to be hidden throughout the play area. Also, since there are so many envelopes, my younger boys got tired of looking for the "right" envelope so they can win! Older kids or adults might enjoy it more...and maybe if there was an easier way to win? I'm not sure. Overall, it was fun because we were playing together.
