Mission in Snowdriftland - Today's Time Waster

Mission in Snowdriftland
Never content to keep you sitting idly by during the holidays, Nintendo delivers Mission in Snowdriftland, a fun platform-style Flash game. Here's the deal: 'El Pix has entered the Secret Teleport Station and has sent himself to Human World. He has stolen some important game files and flew the coop (Har-har!). Meanwhile, Chubby Snow, an out of work video game actor, who is tired of being cast for the wrong role, is pondering his next career move. In a meeting of the fates, Chubby Snow is asked to go after 'El Pix in his home realm, Snowdriftland, and retrieve the stolen game files.

And that's where you come in. Each day until Christmas Eve, in the spirit of an Advent calendar, a new level awaits you in Snowdriftland. There's no ill-tempered sea bass, but there are definitely evil orcas and penguins waiting for you. At the end of each level, a new game file is recovered, and rewards are imparted to you in the form of wallpapers, game clips, MP3 ringtones and icons. This game is true to the spirit of every platformer out there and definitely a ton of fun. But you better get started, you've got 12 levels to catch up on.
