It's late December, and Santa is getting ready for his big night. His elvish helpers are busy making toys, tending reindeer in the stables, and decorating the North Pole's Christmas tree. After the Christmas season, Santa takes a holiday somewhere sunny and warm, bringing along the most industrious team of elves as a reward. Can you lead your crew to earn a place on Santa's vacation?

Santa's Workshop is a reimplementation of the game of the same name released in 2017. This new edition offers two game modes: the Standard Game, designed for families, and the Advanced Game, aimed at players aged 10 and up.

Standard Game

Players lead teams of elves as they gather materials, build toys, decorate the Christmas tree, and tend Santa's reindeer. Completed toys and ornaments contribute to Christmas Cheer during Santa's inspections, while reindeer provide additional scoring opportunities.

Advanced Game

The Advanced Game adds greater strategic depth through elf training, equipment upgrades, coal management, and varied reindeer abilities.

Both modes use the same core worker-placement system while offering different levels of complexity, making the game suitable for families and experienced gamers alike.
