Holiday Hijinks #1: The Kringle Caper

It's the crack of dawn on Christmas Day when the early morning silence is broken by a sudden “Kerplunk!” Something strange has dropped down the chimney! You race to the hearth to find a soot-covered envelope with “URGENT” scrawled across the front. Anxiously, you open the letter and discover a cryptic message. As you begin to read, the air fills with the sound of jingle bells and the sweet smell of peppermint. Just then, you are magically whisked away to the North Pole! It seems that a dastardly crime has been committed and Santa needs your help to catch the ne'er-do-wells! There's no time to wait; Santa is counting on you! Are you ready to save Christmas?

About the game

What is Holiday Hijinks #1: The Kringle Caper

The Kringle Caper, title #1 in the Holiday Hijinks line, is an escape room style game in just 18 cards! As a group, you will solve a series of puzzles to unravel a mystery.

Puzzles may test your perception, wordplay, and lateral thinking. English language fluency is required.

When you have solved a puzzle on the cards, you will enter the answer into the companion website (compatible with all smart phones and computers) and it will check whether you are correct. If you are, the website will tell you which card or cards to take next. The website also contains a graduated hint system, so if you get stuck you can get just a small hint about the current puzzle to get moving again without giving too much away.
