There were indeed two versions of this game, the other being easter-themed. I played both of them when I was younger, and I remember them as really solid and satisfying (even challenging) platformers. I don't remember Santa's spasms at all as they are shown in this video - perhaps you've got yourself some bugged-up beta version?

By the way, CDV Software also published -Sudden Strike- and -Cossacks-, two really good real-time strategy games. Unfortuntaley they went bankrupt in 2010, afaik some employees work now for Gameforge, another German developer and publisher, who are responsible for MMORPGs like Aion, TERA, Metin 2 or Runes of Magic.

Hmm. This thing came out a month after GTA Vice City. I think it's pretty obvious which year had the best games. I only say this game is the best because of those issues n the beginning. All I could think was Santa don't eat strangers cookies they probably put something illegal in it. possibly that sugar wasn't sugar.

Strangely on my Vista Home Premium 32-bit the game works perfectly fine - no glitchy movement in game. Only bug mostly seen in this game is the moonwalking Santa - it can be done when you press -Walk backward- key. Maybe it's OS/computer related problem with spazmatic movement of protagonist.

I had this game around 6 yrs of age and I never played it because the fact that it is extremely dark and creepy with that loud music in the background. Not exactly that creepy now cause I am older. But still, good childhood memories. Not that good. The second one is creepy as shiyyyyyyyt.

Man! What a pleasant surprise! That game is my favorite X-mas game after Jazz Jackrabbit's Christmas levels. My grandma used to play it for hours, even at Easter, and I do believe she still plays it from time to time on my old laptop!

Running older software on newer computers/operating systems is always a crapshoot (unless the devs are still updating the game years later. I need a Windows XP VM just to run my old copy of The Sims on my Windows 7 Laptop.

I totally forgot about this game. I got it in one of the info mags that were popular here during the 90's and I quite liked it. Nice to see a game I actually played and one that wasn't bad at all.

Unfortunately CDV isn't around anymore, it seems like they went under as a result of the crash in '08 so retail copies of the paid version will probably be a lot harder to find as time goes by

In Brazil, in the 2000s, some cereal brands packed this game in their boxes to boost sales around Christmas. I had a lot of fun playing it back then and I'm glad you got a chance to review it
