And how is one supposed to know what to sing/say, etc.?

Looks like a lot of red herrings. But what do I know?

Anyway - how does one tie a reindeer to the sleigh? One? More than one? You can only feed one.

So much for this being a "cute" game.

Anything to do/give/say to ma christmas? Or the elves ...

I could not get the tyre. It says you can try blowing it up, but I don't know how.

As for the glowing stone, see the previous posts. I can't get it, no matter if I am carrying nothing.

Thanks Doreen.

Who will write up the solution? It's not a long one.

You get tired before you can examine everything. Fiddle on this noise.

Any initial suggestions?

Peculiar game this. If you examine the scabbard - you get a cocktail stick which you cannot pick up. If you do this once in the wardrobe, you "get something" but there is nothing there. A cocktail stick ...

lost crown

Amstrad game.

BTW - I found you needed to have CAPS LOCK on. It's also one of those games where you need to type "GO" before the direction.

I'm not very far into this. I can chop the tree, but can't see to get it to use at the moat.

Jolly Poppa Down

Amstrad game. Kinda "cute" though I hate that word.

Your job is to find Santa.

I am stuck (with some objects I collected), at the door which I can't open unless I know the tune. And being unable to fix the sleigh.

OK - I'll try.

I am carrying food, book, dead dog, oars, (worn) sunglasses, (worn) spikes, 1/2 glass of chemical liquid.

At the boat - CLIMB BOAT, ROW EAST, etc. This, eventually will get you to the hut.

Hope this helps.

Me too, I finished it. Boy, it's got random elements, and stuff that can only be done at specific times, etc.

You will be writing up a solution?

Well, at least it's nice to know I was almost done. It's a shame that Dorothy's solution did not mention a crystal. That, apparently was my mistake.
