It’s the most wonderful time of the year and Jolly Old St. Nick is in a bit of a jam. Explore the North Pole, make some new friends, and give Kringle back his jingle. You can play Kringle Krisis during a game of Pumpkin Town (available in the Parsely book/PDF).

As the parser, you’ll take on the role of a computer game with a limited vocabulary. One by one, the players will give you commands like GO NORTH, LIGHT LAMP or GET SWORD, which you’ll follow to the best of your ability. There’s no limit to the number of people that can play and no limit to the fun you’ll have. So what are you waiting for? It’s time to unplug from your computer and plug into Parsely!

• Play them anywhere! On trips, in long lines, camping, at game cons…
• Play them with anyone! Young or old, expert or total n00b
• Play with a few friends or 100 random strangers at the same time

Kringle Krisis is a full-color, 20-page zine containing a map and game guide.

It’s recommended that you know the rules of Parsely games before playing.
