Hint 1:
Think about which characters interacted, and when. The timeline of events is important to understanding motives and resulting actions.Hint 2:
Pay special attention to the specific words that are used throughout the game. Some may be hiding secret meaning.Solution:
The North Pole was abuzz as Christmas drew near. Hoping to ruin Christmas, the Easter Bunny, under the alias of Edward Aster, hired Cole Sprocket to destroy the C.A.R.O.L. using the F.R.E.E.Z.R.

That was fun. I did have a hard time figuring it out but I liked the challenge. The game was well-fleshed out, with good music and art. I loved the intro too, it was so funny.
Who iced Santa? I liked the mechanics of this game, but I had trouble putting all of the pieces together in the end. I had a good time as you'll see in my Gameplay:
Ace of 4s, thank you for this murder mystery experience. The idea of putting words into the solution was good, but with so many options I wasn't able to figure it out. However, if you had fewer options you would get the solution and maybe not understand the story. Thank you for putting hints and the solution on your page!Great idea, loved the gameplay.
The art seemed a bit inconsistent or atleast multiple different styles/people were doing this between characters to set pieces. I think estabilishing guidlines moving forward would bring it more cohesive. IE compare rudolph to the elves or ms.clause.
That was so fun! The mystery had us investigating for some time. Love the misdirection, especially mrs clause!
Spoilers!
I thought for sure Mrs. Claus or Frost killed him for the money.. guess I was wrong
There's a reason I'm not a detective. I'd love to hear the solution.
