Our take on Christmas Carol
The focus on hidden-object scenes and mini-puzzles limits the role of combat and open-ended exploration. The Victorian Christmas setting and Dickens-based story provide a defined narrative path rather than a broad, systems-driven adventure.
What is Christmas Carol?
Christmas Carol is a hidden-object adventure set during the holiday season in Victorian London.
The story follows a businesswoman and mother searching for her children. Along the way, she meets characters from Charles Dickens' novel, talks to the Christmas Spirits, encounters mysterious magic, and passes through otherworldly portals. Gameplay combines hidden-object scenes with a diverse selection of mini-puzzles across beautifully drawn locations. A soundtrack accompanies the adventure, which builds toward a finale involving the future. The game is based on Dickens' famous novel and presents a Christmas mystery involving family, spirits, Victorian streets, and supernatural events.
