The Elf's Christmas Adventure

Alternate Titles:Elves '87
Authors:Marlene Abriel and Bruce MacKay
Genre:Seasonal
Released:1987
Review:

You're the oldest and wisest elf of them all, come out of retirement to help Santa Claus prepare for a particularly tricky Christmas. Not a difficult game, but involves some trial and error. The AGT version plays Christmas carols over the internal speaker, but fortunately you can turn them off (or, better yet, delete them from your disk without otherwise affecting the game.)

Rating: ***
