Christmas Stories: The Gift of the Magi Collector's Edition

A great Christmas themed HOG that tugged at my heartstrings and is sprinkled with a generous dose of cats. The mini games were challenging but 90% doable without skipping. I really enjoyed this game. Rating: 8.5/10

The Good A solid find em Christmas game with a decent and heartwarming story. Like many other games by this publisher, based off an old Christmas story. Solid guides in game for those that struggle, although for the life of me can't find the last gnome. The Bad A couple flaws are there are no Steam achievements... but there are in game achievements. Not a big deal, but unless you're OCD like me (CURSE AND DAMN YOU FINAL GNOOOOME!) lessens the value of playing through the game in its entirety, again not a big deal just less drive. 2nd and much bigger flaw, is there is no cloud save, in tandem with the lack of achievements it then has no motive to go out of your way to play the game outside of the story. If the story then isn't someone's cup of tea, well it has the makings of being a bad game. Then it comes down to personal preference, I was fine with it, but it is a pretty basic game, so I don't see it being for everyone. Both those going hand in hand, why would I wish to complete a game, that the achievements don't get factored into my steam profile, and due to no cloud save, something happens to your device, it was all for not. There is no value in the extra stuff, so it comes …

Fun and relaxing, it will put you in the Christmas spirit.

Very nice storyline to enjoy while playing the minigames and HOPs. Story revolves around the meaning of Christmas, and doing good for others. <3 Very pretty illustrations and backgrounds.

had a couple of crash and lag issues but they were not impactful. the game was over all well flowing and nice.

Fun and Christmasy
