Oh nee! De inpakmachines van Sinterklaas zijn kapot. Alle kadootjes vliegen in het rond en jij moet helpen, zodat ze op de juiste plek terecht komen. Maar, alleen aan snelheid heb je niet genoeg. Deze game bevat powerups waarmee je de kadootjes sneller, makkelijker of handiger kan sorteren. Die powerups moet je wel eerst verdienen. En... kijk uit! Soms is er een snoepgoed verstopping, die kan alles in de soep laten lopen. Dit leuke spel is bedoeld voor kinderen vanaf 4 jaar en kan zowel op iPhone als op iPad gespeeld worden. Spelenderwijs leren tellen, kleuren matchen en hand-oog coördinatie verbeteren door gekleurde cadeautjes in de juiste zakken te slepen. De verschillende levels beginnen makkelijk en worden steeds moeilijker. Naarmate het spel vordert is er meer snelheid, behendigheid en geduld nodig om het spel uit te spelen... Veel speelplezier!
