Summary:

Someone has been murdered, and every witness statement reveals the same haunting detail: the killer was dressed as Santa Claus. Now, you must comb through the suspects, unravel the clues and discover the killer hiding among them.

It’s Christmas Eve, and 40,000 Santa impersonators have gathered for the annual Christmas festival. Just before the day starts, screams are heard from behind the stage. As whispers build across the sea of red suits, black boots and white beards, it becomes apparent: someone has been murdered.

As witness statements are taken, information starts to emerge on who the real killer could be. Gather the evidence, figure out the clues and rule out the festive fiends – one Santa at a time.

The killer is hiding where you can see them. Can you solve the clues and unmask them before the clock strikes midnight? Catch the true villain before they disappear into the Christmas crowds forever.
