About the Game

The elves are tired of working and have had enough. They're rising up to overthrow Santa, and it's up to you to fight back.

Santa's Last Stand is a fast-paced roguelike shooter where you'll face endless waves of rebellious elves in a desperate fight for Christmas.

Master your survival skills with intuitive controls:

  • Move with WASD

  • Shoot with Left Click

  • Dash with Space to escape danger or close the gap

  • Select Cards to power up Santa and gain the edge in battle

Survive as long as you can in this one-life-per-run challenge. Every decision matters, and only the strongest will save Christmas!

Good luck — the North Pole is counting on you!
