This Christmas, put your kids in a game full of naughty elves, snowballs and far too many mince pies. Kids love games. Kids love themselves. A game starring your kids is basically the perfect present, and there’s no batteries or plastic involved.
Our pick: flappy flyer with the Christmas theme. Your kids dodge naughty elves and snowballs, grab presents and mince pies, and the game finishes with a group hug ending carrying your own message. Every line is pre-written and funny out of the box, and you can change any of it.

One tap to play, so your kids can pick it up in seconds and then spend an hour trying to beat it.
