Santa's Workshop (Second Edition)

About the game

It’s late in December, and Santa is gearing up for his big night. His elvish helpers are busy making sure he's ready to deliver joy across the world! The elves have a lot to do: toys to be built and assembled, reindeer to be tended in the stables, and the North Pole's own Christmas tree to decorate. It's a time of unbelievable hustle and bustle! After the Christmas season is over, Santa always takes his own holiday, somewhere sunny and warm, and he brings along the most industrious team of elves as a reward. Can you lead your elvish crew to earn a spot with Santa on vacation? Santa's Workshop is a reimplementation of a game by the same name released in 2017. This new edition comes with two game modes: the Standard Game for families, and an Advanced Game for ages 10 and up. In the 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. 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 for families and experienced gamers. —description from the publisher
