North Pole Meltdown
[Escape the Pike]
Sturbridge, MA

I’ve got bad news: you didn’t make it into the Big Guy’s book this year! That’s right, you didn’t score a place on the nice list. That’s where I come in! My name is Burt and I’m a bit of a North Pole rebel. You see, I think that people who were so close to making it on the Nice List deserve a chance… and you’re in luck because I know where it’s stored!

That’s why I’ve brought you to Santa’s Workshop. If you can make it through the puzzles I’ve laid out, find the Nice List, and put your names on it, Santa will make a stop at your house Christmas Eve. You’ve only got one hour before Santa gets back from his test flight and catches you. Fail and it’s the Naughty List for sure! Good luck! Burt, out!
