Piggly Christmas Edition

Hunger is a powerful incentive, especially if the meal consists of delicious apple pies and a lot of candy. In Piggly Christmas Edition, you have to collect as many sweets as you can, as well as roll some apples home in order to begin baking pies for your three little piglets, who anxiously away your return.

Piggly is a mother of three that goes on a quest throughout the forest, with the sole purpose of bringing apples back home and bake some pies. Along the way, she gets to collect a lot of candy as well, which should give the little piglets something to chew on while the pies are in the oven. Moreover, the job does not come without risks, since a variety of dangerous critters and obstacles stand in Piggly's way and mess with her holiday spirit.

The game plays out as a basic platformer, with the main character being able to move around and jump over obstacles, as well as dash through shallow water and climb trees. The purpose of every level is for you to get the apples home, by simply rolling them around. In some situations, you also get a basket to carry them, but you can still only carry one at a time that way.

Since Piggly is not exactly capable of fending off foes, she must either run away or avoid the enemies she meets throughout her journey. Thus, bees must be avoided at all costs, since one sting from them means that you have to reload the level from the last checkpoint. There are also rabbits and worms, which, although cannot attack you, they do eat your apples, forcing you to return and get new ones.

Visually speaking, the game features very colorful graphics and more than pleasant character animation, which should be the delight of every child. Moreover, the seasons keep changing as you progress through the levels and you get to see all of them, complete with their trademark weather, such as rain, sleet and snow. Finally, the soundtrack is as jolly as possible and it definitely awakens the Christmas spirit in you.

In the end, Piggly Christmas Edition features enough levels and challenges to keep you busy for quite some time, especially since you can always replay the stages and attempt to surpass your own highscores, or keep track of the online leadersboards.
