A downloadable Holiday card

Buy Now$3.00 USD or more

You are a tomte, an elusive gnome with ancestral connections to the deep snowy forests of Northern Sweden, however your spirit has some how gotten lost and trapped in the cheaply made likeness of your kind. You now find yourself being sold in a North American store that prides itself on selling items for a dollar. Your cheaply made body is merely an embarrassing vessel for your ancient spirit.  That said, whoever made you is your ally and somewhat understood your desire to return home—they’ve kindly sewn in an eclectic assortment of items that may or may not assist you on your journey back to the forests of Northern Sweden in time to celebrate Winter solstice with your long lost relatives. Sewn to your plush body, you will find 10 items. 

In honour of your maker, you decide to use each item gifted to you as you journey home. 

To play you will need a coin—determine one side as yielding a positive outcome and the other, yielding a negative one. For each item, flip the coin to determine the outcome of using that item. 


Good luck!

HEADS UP—this game has a reference to psychedelics.

As a Swede I have been thinking about the proliferation of Tomte rebranded as gnomes within the United States recently. This game's introduction perfectly encapsulates those feelings for me, and brought a smile to an otherwise dark winter day. I hope to get the chance to play this amongst family this holiday season and ask what everyone else thinks of the "Gnome" phenomenon.
