The Elf: 

Fear it.

Run from it.

No matter what you do,

You can't escape it.

Every Christmas, the Elf arrives out of nowhere. 

Sitting on your shelf. Leering at you.

Trying to make you behave. Trying to enforce compliance with some half-remembered dogma about Naughty and Nice lists. 

Also, it might be possessed by a demon...

The only way to return peace to your home is to destroy it before it takes control of your mind.


Elf In Your Self is a game about a dark version of everyone's favorite surveillance-based Christmas decoration. 

Players will use a deck of cards to tell the story of their attempts to banish this evil force from their homes. But beware, one wrong move and you may become possessed by the Elf! 

While you're possessed, the Elf talks through you, mocking the other players' attempts to get rid of it.

This means that managing the Elf's victims is the key to victory, don't let one player remain possessed for too long, lest they undo all of your hard work!

To play, you will need the following:

  • Deck of cards
  • A festive surveillance-state normalizing sitting Elf [AKA Christmas Legolas knock-off, because Tolkien can't sue] or something to stand in for it.
