A Christmas-themed horizontally scrolling shoot-'em-up. Santa is attempting to make his annual gift-delivering journey while battling renegade pixies.

Another game, also named Santa's Xmas Caper and with a title screen identical to the Commodore 64 version, was released by the same company for DOS and Amiga some time later. However, that game is different; it is a side-scrolling platform game.
