Why We Picked It
Santas Secret Gift is a working Arcade entry, which is a lower bar than it sounds and one a surprising number of pages fail. The description below is 302 words of the studio's own text; our job on this page is the note, not a second copy of it. The counter reads 7,128 plays; the score is 4.1 out of 5, level with the 4.2 average across the library.
How to Play
- The frame is 480×320 landscape: laptop, tablet or a rotated phone, because in portrait the margins go first.
- Keyboard input is documented (the arrow keys), which makes this a laptop game despite the frame.
Editor’s Note
No score was invented for this page and no review count borrowed from elsewhere. Same-shelf alternatives listed here: Santa's Quest, The Fallen Moai, 12 MiniBattles - Two Players. If that sounds thin, it is: the listing is thin, and inventing more would be worse than admitting it. Nothing on the page promises more than that, and we have not tested it beyond the opening minutes.

Santas Secret Gift turns a simple platformer idea into something much more interesting: Santa carries a magic gift box, and wherever he throws it, he can instantly teleport to. Instead of just running and jumping, you are constantly deciding where to toss the box, because that throw determines where Santa can appear next.
The controls are easy to pick up. Use the arrow keys to move around each stage, press the Z key to throw the gift box or teleport to wherever it landed, and press the down arrow to pass through doors when a path opens up. Mobile control support is included, so touch players get the same actions through on-screen buttons. Each level is a compact puzzle-platform room where the exit sits behind walls, gaps, or barriers that cannot be crossed with jumping alone.
The teleport is the whole game. A well-aimed throw over a wall lets you blink past it; a toss across a spike pit carries you safely over; a box left on a high ledge becomes a way up. Later stages combine several of these tricks in sequence, asking you to plan two or three throws ahead and to retrieve or re-throw the box from awkward positions. The difficulty builds steadily from simple one-throw rooms to layouts that punish sloppy aim.
The most useful habit is throwing low and deliberately: a box that rolls too far can land somewhere useless, and you will have to reset your plan. When a room seems impossible, look for thin walls and doorways, because the intended solution usually involves blinking through something rather than over it.
Players who enjoy puzzle platformers with one clever mechanic done well will love this. It plays directly in the browser on desktop and mobile, and its short levels make it ideal for quick holiday-season sessions.
