The Story
​
​​​
​The Christmas stars have lost their sparkle and the magic of the season is at risk! Can you help Skyler and the snow leopards make the stars shine bright again?
Father Christmas relies on the twinkling stars to guide him around the world on Christmas Eve to deliver all the presents.
With the help of Tinselbottom and Mary Christmas, you’ll embark on a magical adventure to save Christmas and make the stars shine bright once again!
