Step Inside The Magic Toy Shop
In the heart of Christmas, a mysterious Toy Shop appears, glowing with colour and wonder. When Fox and Bunny peek through the keyhole, they are whisked inside and magically transformed into little wind-up toys. Follow their journey through a world of oversized toys, glowing surprises and magical discoveries as every path leads closer to the Toymaker’s secret workshop.
