Santa Claus has apparently reached his breaking point. After years of pressure from greedy children, rising taxes, elf-union disputes, bills and problems with his reindeer, the normally cheerful figure has gone on a violent rampage through his own workshop.

The player takes the role of an employee of Polar Sanitation Inc., sent to the North Pole after the incident. The objective is not to stop Santa but to clean up the gruesome aftermath: blood, body parts, dead elves, reindeer and damaged sections of the workshop must be removed so that Christmas can be restored.

Players are equipped with a mop, gloves, cleaning equipment and a sniffer tool to locate remaining biological contamination. The game can also be played cooperatively, allowing several players to work together or, deliberately or otherwise, create an even greater mess.
