Excellent Christmas game, thanks. I've also added it to my new "Gameplay of New Amiga Games from December 2024" video along with other recently released Amiga games.
A nice but fairly complex puzzle game that requires some time to get used to. Personally, I found the many possible puzzle combinations too extensive. Nevertheless, the game is one of the most innovative Christmas games of recent years. Our German-language review can be found in our recorded livestream starting at 00:15:10. English subtitles are also available. Subscription to our YouTube and Twitch channel is welcome. 🙂
it treats all variables as ‘longs’ (32 bit) and being 16-bit every variable causes two memory fetches regardless of what you are doing. There’s a fair few ‘if’ commands just for the elfs alone. I don’t think it re-uses a register a variable is fetched to so every time it’s needed it’s fetched again. My next task is an AMOS to C converter so I can optimise it!
takes a little getting use to - thanks! Hint the bells explode when thrown…. Another hint, you can walk everywhere (and climb) without using the climb and walk buttons - right click!

Thank, I notice you're running the original that had an issue with climbing stopping when it shouldnt, but thanks for playing
Played the game on my A4000 yesterday. I like it 😃 Great release.
Thank you
Hi ! Eh, this is a welcome surprise, didn't expect this kind of game :) Great work !
Thank you
When this game is installed on HD and you run from Workbench is there a way to exit from main menu back to Workbench?
If you download V1.11 then it now has a close button! Thanks for the suggestion
Excellent. Thank you Rob and Merry Christmas! :)
Very nice :) Thanks for that.
What do you think is the bottleneck, that AMOS creates, and prevents running smooth on a A500?

AMOS to C converter sounds great :)
Will it work on theA500mini? I can always try it out first and let you know, then pay for it if it works?
Should do, but please let me know!
Works perfectly on the mini, I've paid for the game now.
Thanks for testing... and thanks for paying too!
Nice game!
