I gave this and extra point because the music is fabulous and quite perfect for Christmas.
Reviews for "A Christmas Blackout"
I'm not happy with this game. These are usually much better.
You make us try to do things in the dark despite candles being available in the first room. Why can I pick them up? Why can't I use them to light the stove or fireplace?!?
Why give us 4 combinations to a lock and no clue on which one is the right one?
The walkthrough wouldn't load for me either - either on Chrome or Firefox....
SPOILER: I haven't ever seen snow in person so I didn't think of the salt until I remembered something said on UK TV. Also, by the end, I felt resentful that the kid, lady and mouse were holding out on you.
Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah, Joyous Kwanzaa and a Happy Festivus to you too! :D Was a pretty puzzling one this one, unexpected bits and pieces, but all in the spirit of sharing: giving things and getting things back to further the story! Good game.

I am not good in such games but it was a nice short, easy game.
Short and too easy - 50% of game is making tea. So the game is about as fun and hard as making tea. Only thing this game gives in addition is making you feel like you accomplished something by doing that.
