Daze Before Christmas is one of those weird, forgotten Genesis platformers that somehow got a holiday makeover. You play as this grumpy Santa who’s lost his presents—and his patience—so he’s running around punching elves, jumping on candy canes, and throwing snowballs at everything that moves. The controls are a little stiff, but there’s something charming about how aggressively festive it all is.
It’s got that early ‘90s vibe where every level is packed with random hazards, like killer snowmen and toy factories gone wrong. The music’s surprisingly catchy, too—just don’t expect it to hold up against the big-name platformers of the era. Still, if you’re into obscure holiday games, this one’s a bizarre little time capsule.
