Highlights

Christmas Eve, the presents are under the tree and midnight feels a hundred years away. Tonight, switch off the screens and turn your children into the heroes of a story: Santa’s Big Red Sack has gone missing, and only they can find it before the clock strikes twelve.

The Great Gift Rescue is a first roleplaying game for kids aged 6 to 10, written for a grown-up who has never run a game before. You read the story aloud and ask “What do you do?”; they choose a hero and decide how to solve each problem. There is no fighting and no losing: the heroes make friends, help, play tricks and solve riddles. The rules fit on one page and you only need one six-sided die. The Italian edition is fully written for Italian families, not translated word for word.

WHAT'S INCLUDED
• 33-page book: a 6-scene illustrated quest to read aloud, with short sentences and clear outcomes for every idea (Yes! · Yes, but… · Oops!)
• One-page rules: one die, stars for Magic Powers, and the Two Oops Rule so nobody is ever stuck
• Storyteller guide: 10 habits, a script to start, 11 answers to things kids really say, options for ages 4–5, ages 9–10, one child or big groups
• A complete worked example of play with a 6-year-old and a 9-year-old
• 6 hero cards a 7-year-old can read, a How to Roll card, a Storyteller card and 4 make-your-own hero cards
• Paper standees for the 6 heroes, Tumble the young giant, the Snow Sprites and the Big Red Sack, plus blank standees to draw on
• An illustrated 2-page map board with a moon track to midnight
• 12 gift tokens, 25 star tokens, a moon token and 8 riddle picture cards
• 6 riddles, 3 real games to play at the table and a sledding race against twelve chimes
• 12 cut-out hero badges, Tumble’s letter to Santa and a Hero Award certificate
• 5 ideas for more adventures on snowy nights
• Names, letter and certificate fillable in free Adobe Acrobat Reader
• English AND Italian editions, US Letter and A4, plus ink-saving versions

1 to 6 children plus one grown-up, ages 6 to 10, 45–75 minutes. Prep: about 20 minutes to print, cut and read two pages. Every scene has a tip for when the heroes get stuck and a shortcut if time runs short, and the story splits neatly over two evenings. Gentle suspense only, in the scene with the crying giant. Perfect for Christmas Eve, holidays with grandchildren, a snow day, the classroom or a library club, or as a first step into tabletop roleplaying.
