I'm trying to get into the Christmas spirit and I wanna do it through gaming.

So if any of you could suggest any quality (or non-quality for lols) Christmas games for me to play, that'd be great.

Donkey Kong Country 3 with the XMAS code enabled.

lol i never really played xmas games but my absolute favorite i-spy book was the xmas edition. it's kind of a game cuz you have an objective to find things >.>

There's a Rudolph game for Wii and DS... Don't know if it's any good.

What I usually play when I'm in the Christmas mood is Frosty Village from Diddy Kong Racing. Great Christmas stage.

Duke Nukem Nuclear Winter is always fun. Nights Into Dreams Christmas is also great.

not really xmas, but a lot of people like slalom for the NES.

there's also Daze Before Christmas, where you play as Santa Clause who's been cursed by the devil himself.

There's probably also a ton of Flash games that will do the trick. I know there's a Christmas skin for Robot Unicorn Attack.

here's a good christmas game: va11 hall-a


yeah you read that right. it's a game about bartending and is cleverly written and has a good soundtrack that's inspired by 80's synthwave, but i'm mentioning it cos it takes place around christmastime (and at one point you can buy a christmas tree)


hence, this is a christmas game, and the coolest, most relevant one one this list. think of it like "christmas wrapping" by the waitresses, but in game form

In Bully: Scholarship Edition there is a segment towards the middle of the game where you do a bunch of missions to help a hobo steal Christmas.

Also if you play Cave Story+ between Dec. 24-26 it will have a Christmas skin.

Here's a quick little game I just had to mention before Christmas. I decided to go play Parasite Eve on the Playstation and remembered. That game takes place in December, I believe a day after Christmas so, I guess it counts? Its a flawed, but very entertaining blend of rpg and survival horror from back when Square had a lot of left over FF7 money. The sequel while not during Christmas, is even better. taking much more from the survival horror side of the first game.

Pretty sure the third game in the series, Third Birthday, also takes place in December, but that game is pretty mediocre =/.
