Christmas Smash gameIn this free online game called 'Christmas Smash', the player has to whack anything that pops up out of the chimneys that doesn't have to do with the Christmas holiday season. For example, if you see either Easter bunny, a criminal or a joker pop up out of the chimney, bonk him with a hammer by mouse clicking on the character. Miss 10 and the game ends. High scores for Internet players seem to stay around the 400 mark. For everyone you hit that isn't related to Christmas, you gain 1 score. If you hit Santa or Rudolf, your score returns to 0 ie zero. Tuff but challenging.

Itemization of game elements: |
There are also two buttons, one to start the game and the other contains instructions on how to play. Furthermore, the player will see a list of Internet player top scores displayed on the right of the introductory page. Personally I like this idea, rather than be shown the top scores at the end of the game. Another good idea from a game developers viewpoint, is how they display a link on the lower right side for 'Tell A Friend'. I've never seen this in a game before now. Perhaps it could also have been shown at the end of the game as well. Clicking the purple colored 'Instructions' button, switches the top score leader board to a short run down on instructions. Once in the game, the top GUI (graphical user interface) displays the 'Score', 'Bonus' points, 'Missed' hits, as well as the current Level you are playing. When the game ends, the player is shown on the lower right corner, the 'Total Score', an Internet ranking and a text box to submit their name.
