Game Overview
Santa's Workshop is a worker-placement game, taking place over six or nine rounds, in which players use their elves to collect materials in order to build gifts, and tend to the reindeer. Players may customize their workforce by sending elves to be trained in certain aspects of the game, which provide a benefit for the rest of the game. Santa comes around two or three times during the game for an inspection to see which team has made the most gifts. Players will have to decide when to visit the mail room in order to pick up new gifts to build, and when to tend to the reindeer.
