This was a super fun little Christmas Shooter!
Light on the actual scares considering little more happens than being assaulted by Christmas Tree Dudes, but I will say I am impressed with how neatly packed the game is. A set of clear locations that are easy to remember where to find despite the maze, very clear cut instructions on where to go and when, and a just-right balance of ammo and enemies to leave you thinking "I am hurting for ammo" without ending up feeling like you'll get screwed over. Just a great time.
My one major gripe is the lack of a real payoff - no real climax or final fight or anything - just holding down a mouse button and then you win. It could have stood to at least have a bit of an ending cinematic or something to give you a pat on the back and a sense of completion, I feel.
But still, Night of the X-Mas Trees was a ton of fun!
