Our take on Santa Sling
The defining mechanic is delivering presents by aiming a magic slingshot from Santa’s sleigh, with rings along the route awarding bonus points.
What is Santa Sling?
Play Santa in a first-person VR setting and deliver presents to children from a sleigh in a Christmas-themed town.
