- Free games: Metal Gear Santa skips the chimney in Ho-Ho-Home Invasion - 18 December 2020
Santa Claus has the one big night every year, and every Christmas Eve he manages to pull it off without getting caught once. Amazing, right? It turns out, even Father Christmas has to keep his stealth skills sharpened, and that's what you'll be doing in Ho-Ho-Home Invasion, a free game available now on Steam and Itch.io. If you get vibes of Solid Snake, that's no surprise - Ho-Ho-Home Invasion was "very nearly called Santa Game Solid," according to developer Vicky Potts, the founder of Whitepot Studios. "We realised last month that there aren't very many Christmas videogames, so three weeks later, here we are!" In Ho-Ho-Home Invasion, you're Santa, and your job is to make it through a warehouse training course designed by your most tactically-minded elves. You need to enter a home, deliver presents, and exfiltrate to your sleigh, all without being spotted by the many patrolling training…

Whitepot Studios is excited to announce this free festive stealth micro-game, created especially for the festive season. https://youtu.be/xWNDquUDfWs ELF-MADE WAREHOUSE This year, due to social distancing requirements, Santa can't undertake his normal training. Thankfully, his elves have crafted a fully automated Santa training area in a disused warehouse - with five bespoke "houses" for Santa to sneak his way through. YOU BETTER WATCH OUT Make your way through fake houses, past fake robot residents, and place some fake presents, all in record time. Be sure to: Peek around corners Tiptoe to be quiet Avoid training robots Place presents Safely esca…
