About Santa Games
Christmas is close, the gifts have gone missing, and Santa goes out to find them himself in this keyboard-controlled Christmas platformer.
Each level starts with Santa on the left side, and you work your way to the right. The sleigh only appears somewhere in the level once you have collected all the presents, so none of them can be skipped. Santa gets no magic powers here, just his own legs and a jump.

Santa can take two hits and has two lives. Lose them all and you start the level over.
Goblins wander around the levels. You can walk around them or take them out by landing on their heads. Spikes are placed on different surfaces and have to be avoided completely.
Some platforms are blue with arrows on them. Where Santa stands on them decides how they move, so you steer them with your position.
Besides presents, you can grab diamonds and Santa letters to raise your score. Find every letter in a level and you get taken to a special level packed with diamonds.
Santa is not quick on his feet. His jump goes fairly high, but he rises and drops fast and does not cover much distance sideways, which makes gaps and narrow landings the hardest part.
Quick summary
- You start each level on the left and move right, collecting the missing presents.
- Along the way you dodge spikes and either avoid goblins or jump on them.
- Once every present is collected, the sleigh shows up and reaching it finishes the level.
- If Santa runs out of lives, you replay the level from the start.

Tips & tricks
- Santa is slow, so take your time and look over each section before moving on.
- His jumps are short sideways, so start a jump close to the edge of a gap.
- If a goblin blocks a tight spot, land on its head instead of trying to squeeze past.
- Check every corner for Santa letters if you want to reach the bonus diamond level.
