Our take on Christmas Defence
Rather than placing the player directly in control of a conventional combat hero, the game centers on finding small animals and coordinating their individual traits to protect a single decorated tree.
What is Christmas Defence?
Small forest animals defend a decorated Christmas tree from larger animals seeking to steal its jewelry and knock it down.
Search snowdrifts to find the small animals, then organize them according to their individual characteristics. Snowdrifts can also conceal hostile animals that charge toward the tree as soon as they are discovered. The task is to direct the defenders and drive away the attackers through tactical decisions.
How Christmas Defence plays
- 01Animal Command
- Locate small animals in snowdrifts and direct them as a group.
- 02Individual Traits
- Account for each discovered animal's personal characteristics when organizing the defense.
- 03Hidden Attackers
- Hostile animals emerge from snowdrifts and move toward the Christmas tree.
