I hope you all had a great Christmas this year, received all the presents you hoped for and spent some quality time with your friends and family. I’m currently catching up on the Commodore News after a couple of weeks of bad flu. This game may be late to CommodoreBlog, but I still think it deserves a mention, as some of us are still enjoying the festivities, turning our holiday into a long Christmas. At least that’s what I do. Anyway here’s a Commodore 64 Christmas game called ‘Santa’s Troubles’ by lowcarb that I have enjoyed playing these last couple of days.
Story
A few days before Christmas, the toys to be distributed to all the
children of the world have now been packaged in Santa’s workshop.
Unfortunately, a gang of criminals decided to steal part of the gift
packages to resell them on the black market. The criminals then went to
the North Pole and entered the workshop stealing as many packages as
possible and, after loading their truck, fled. Shortly afterwards, one
of the village elves noticed what had happened and immediately raised
the alarm. Santa Claus then hastily prepared the sleigh complete with
reindeer and following the tracks left by the fugitives in the snow he
reached the nearest town, where the criminals had set up their den and
where they had unloaded the loot. Now Santa Claus will have to work hard
to recover the stolen goods.
