Light, easy to pick up trpg with a neat central premise and a lot of heart. Doesn't really do crunchy tactical gameplay---it's more of a narrative game---but there's still plenty of room for suspense, and the game is enjoyable for all ages.

Some homebrew with jenga blocks and movement/sightline rules can add crunch if your group needs it.

Thank you for taking a moment of your time to leave this comment! It made my day when I saw it :-)

It's not crunchy at all indeed, there's few rules and it was aimed at strong beginners to find creative ways to find and solve a puzzle (how to find a suitable target, how to find out what would be a good gift for them, how to acquire said gift, and how to plant it without leaving a trace..). It was first published in a family-friendly Co-op, so it was more conceived as "empathy/problem solving exercises for kids" :p

Happy to help! I'm used to sites where everyone reviews everything, so I'm trying to make sure I leave at least a bit of feedback for every tabletop game I've gotten (although I backed the bundle, so I'm probs going to be writing reviews for a while.)

Anyway, I really like the game. I'm outside of the target demographic, so the jenga block stuff is just advice for anyone that's in the same situation. It's def not a game bug, more 'here's how I would adapt the recipe for my own cooking.'

YULE ARMY is a lighthearted RPG about being professional gift-planters. A game aimed at kids (but I am sure it is enjoyable to play for adults too), it has easy to learn rules. I quite like the fun stats of the game, being Know-it-all, Jock, Streeter, Weirdo and Chatter; all of which feels very fitting for a kids' game. I love the operation samples included in the game, which contains sad and lonely people that I want to cheer up with gifts already.

Thank you for reviewing my little thing! I'm glad you enjoyed it, and I hope it'll be a fun activity to beginners of all ages, and spread some "pay it forward, wholesome" activism :)
