Fellow Elves, - I'm SICK of this place! Awful pay, no holidays, and a horrible boss! Since Santa's banned all holiday celebrations, I'm going to get revenge by decorating the tree in his room with some festive cheer! Then... I'm outta here! Signed, (Player)

Intelligence[ | ]

intelligence is hard to get in this map, as the only way of gaining it is through a computer inside of the Christmas tree area (restricted area.) therefore you must sneak in with no contraband items on you and use the computer. It is recommended not to do this during work or free time as guards visit that area more frequently during those times. The recommended periods to visit the area are Breakfast/Dinner, Exercise Time and Shower Time. This is because most of the guards are busy watching inmates at this time.

Trivia[ | ]

  • This, and Jingle Cells are the only DLC prisons in the game to be connected to another prison by storyline - Jingle Cells is said to take place after the events of Santa's Sweatshop.
  • Getting to the sleigh via a prison takeover does not allow the player to escape, as the sleigh simply won't work.
  • In the PC version of the game, guards will wear "guard elf outfits" but in the console/mobile versions they will wear guard outfits with an alternate model to the regular guard outfits found throughout most other prisons.
