Really loved the graphics! Nice colors and very graphical use of the ultra-low-res style.
The story is cute, very appropriate for a Christmassy story.
The use of hints is nice in that you don't stay blocked too long. However it seems in many cases their use could be avoided by either hinting the player a bit more, or adding synonyms.
Overall it was a great little game!
