Winter Wonderland

by Laura Knauth

You're a little girl concerned about your ailing brother, and you're heading into town to buy a candle so that your family will have something to put on its solstice tree--but you stumble into a fantasy world. Thoroughly described and charming, though not necessarily to everyone's tastes--the sweetness quotient is high--and the writing is solid but sometimes gets a bit carried away. Several clever puzzles, but there's one rather unfortunate one in the latter stages of the game that most people have found frustrating. [...] There's a hint menu to help kids through the puzzles and the content is pretty benign. Includes ASCII graphics that can be disabled. (Reviewed by Duncan Stevens)
