You Are The Yeti

December is in full swing, and so is holiday cheer! Make the most of this wonderful time of the year by having fun with a good game!

And today’s free game is: You Are The Yeti! This game is a homage to the old SkiFree game, where you played as a skier evading the Abominable Snowman. This time though…

Yes. That’s it. You’re the Yeti, and you’ve grown tired of skiers buzzing around! It’s fun to play as the hero, but sometimes playing as the monster gives a completely different kind of entertainment!

We warn you though, this game is frustratingly fun. The Yeti drives like a drunk moose, and the skiers are waving and cruising around, seemingly taunting you as you fail your fifth dive toward them… Ooh! We’ll get you, just stay still!

Five game insights we think will pique your interest!

If chasing down people isn’t your thing, then why not try being the one who’s chased? GingerPunk 2020 is a quirky, challenging and free-to-play holiday shooter game. Imagine your gingerbread man being chased by cookies and you have to spray them with sugary cream coming out of your bum. Remember, you shoot BEHIND you, not in front of you!

Yeah… it’s crass and weirdly funny, but don’t let that fool you, it IS difficult, especially on further levels.

Craving that mental exercise a good puzzle gives you? Here’s our free festive recommendation: Gift Blox! Celebrate the season of giving by launching these gifts into the sky after hitting the bright red spot just right.

Heads up though, levels 4 to 6 are quite the mind-benders!

Are you tired from planning your holiday events and all that stuff? Just have a few moments to yourself but still want something to play that doesn’t require much brain power? Here, go “Sanki”—that’s Polish for “sledding”!

Personally, we were only able to do a 720 flip, we’re sure you can beat us.

Spending the weekend with someone special and want to play a game for just the two of you? Get comfy together, bundle up with a nice blanket, bust out the laptop and play the highly-rated Pikwip!

Disclaimer: We are not responsible for any cooperative frustration you may get from this game.

The cold yet pleasant evenings, the festive mood… nothing truly beats the feeling of being smack dab in the middle of December. Round that off with a nice moment of relaxation and a great game to give you a bit of joy, and it is just wondrous.

Truly, the onset of Christmas is an unbeatable time of the year, and Edna Ferber, an American novelist, short story writer and playwright, sums it up perfectly with this quote:

“Christmas isn’t a season. It’s a feeling”

Here it comes, the tidal wave of holiday joy! Relax to the max by laying down next to the comfy warmth of a fire, and let the entertaining discussions of our podcasts carry you to sleep.

By the way, we’ve just gone over our 50th episode recently! Hoorah!
