This is the story of a hard working Christmas elf. I was never told their name. I call them Blinky. They had one last task to complete late one Christmas Eve: String some lights, plug them in, and connect them to the finial atop the tree. Easy for a smart elf like Blinky. Too bad they never finished that electrician's course...
Game Play
Connect the loose bulbs by touching them with the exposed wire from the light string. Loose bulbs are always safe, but if the string is connected to power and you touch the string to itself, some of the bulbs will explode. Electricity is powerful, but dangerous. Be careful with it.
There are three possible endings and eleven achievements to earn.
Controls
Press the Z key to disconnect the light string to/from the power outlet.
Press the X key to disconnect the light string to/from the finial.
Arrow keys set the direction of travel. If you wander off screen you will hear warning notes. Come back before you wander too far.
