Welcome, everyone, to the North Pole Holiday Gathering! 🎅❄️

The snow is falling, the cocoa is flowing, and the workshop is buzzing with festive cheer—or at least, it was.

This year, something truly dreadful has happened. One of the most important treasures of Christmas has gone missing—Santa’s Magical Gift Bag! Without it, Santa can’t deliver presents to children all over the world. The magic that powers Christmas Eve itself has been stolen!

But who could have done such a terrible thing? Was it an act of mischief? A misguided attempt at revenge? Or perhaps someone is hiding a secret they don’t want discovered?

Everyone here tonight is a suspect. Each of you has been summoned to this emergency meeting at Santa’s workshop, not just to enjoy holiday cheer, but to help solve this festive crime.

Your task is clear: uncover the thief, retrieve the Gift Bag, and save Christmas before it’s too late! 🎄✨

Game Structure:

We will have a brief Introduction where the host explains all the rules. Following that there will be 3 rounds of clues given at different time intervals that each guest receives. You must talk to the other guests to figure out who stole the gift bag. During this there will be craft stations set up for you to paint your ornament, walk around, and talk to others. Finally we'll have the Accusation Round where Artists can accuse others or defend themselves. After this, everybody will vote anonymously who they think the culprit is! There will be various prizes and awards given for the "Best Detective", "Best Actor", and "Best Ornament" at the end of the evening!
