There’s a unique mix of creativity, problem-solving and just plain fun. I wanted a holiday one‑shot that <strong>runs cleanly in a single night</strong>, works for <strong>brand‑new players</strong>, and still gives <strong>experienced tables meaningful choices</strong>. That idea turned into a question nobody asked: What happens when Ebenezer Scrooge relapses into villainy and decides to cancel Christmas at its source? Now what if we added Die Hard energy (yes it is a Christmas movie) and set it at the North Pole?</p>
