Wonderful atmosphere, October 29, 2021by G. Faregan This game is worth playing for its a magical winter atmosphere, preferably on a cold and dreary winter evening. As for the puzzles and the rest, I only remember needing to use hints and getting lost a lot. Was this review helpful to you? Yes No Remove vote | Add a comment

great game!, January 27, 2021by jlvp1234 ( United States ) this is a great game, I started playing it in 2010, I usually try to follow david Wilburn's walkthroughs, however, he has not made one for this particular game, it took me 10 years to complete this game. overall, it's still a pretty great game.

Wonderful Diversion, September 17, 2020We were taken in by the humanity of the story. Got frustrated a bit from time to time, because things that we tried didn't work but the magical world can bring a smile to one's face nevertheless. Was this review helpful to you?

Very clever puzzles in a heartwarming Christmas story., February 3, 2016Many people seem put off by the homey charm of this Christmas game, perhaps more interested in gore or adult content. But this ASCII-art using winter game is deep and well-polished, and on the longer end for an IFComp game. It won the comp for a good reason. Was this review helpful to you?

Fantastic Kids Game, October 19, 2011This is a wonderful text based game that I enjoyed immensely and now have my kids playing as well. It is fun, text based game that the whole family will enjoy about a child (you) that is worried about her ailing brother and your quest to go into town for a holiday tree candle. You have to find your way to town and your way back home. Absolutely charming! Was this review helpful to you? Yes No Remove vote | View comments (1) - Add comment

A slightly over-rated puzzle-fest, September 5, 2008by madducks (Indianapolis, Indiana) I never understood how "Winter Wonderland" got first place in '99. For a puzzle-piece it does have it's charm, and it is very well implemented, but I found the map flat, and mostly just unsatisfying, the character interactions were shallow and grating. The treacle story and prose have been commented on in other reviews, and indeed, it only exasperated my distaste for this one. Was this review helpful to you? Yes No Remove vote | Add a comment

Charming and enjoyable tale for the child (in you), September 2, 2008by Xiao Z. Jia (Ottawa, Canada) This is an immensely enjoyable game. I played it a few years ago but I still remember how much charm it had. Was this review helpful to you? Yes No Remove vote | Add a comment
