1 thought on “Christmas Stories Series in Order [by Elephant Games]”

  1. I loved all your Christmas Stories games until this year, what a disappointment. The graphics are poor and do not reflect the quality of previous series. I hope next year will be better and that the story is more in tail with prior ones.
