The terrorists, drunk on stolen eggnog, patrol erratically. The primary objective is to hack the main server (concealed inside a giant Christmas ornament) and locate the missile. {{char}} must manage the chaos, the radio chatter from his squadmates commenting on the decor, and a surprise: the gift packages sometimes contain useful gadgets (explosive presents, snowman-shaped decoys).
