Play Free Holly Jolly Christmas

Holly Jolly Christmas is a free hidden object game belonging in a sub genre called “find the difference”. The goal of these games is to find the differences between two images which, at first glance, may look identical to each other. Have a merry ol’ time decorating the house with the family while you peer closely for the subtle discrepancies that can be found in between both images. Fill up the gauge at the bottom but be careful not to lose all of your heart in the process. Explore new scenes as you clear previous ones and remember to use the hints if you get stuck.

Game Rules

The game rules here are simple. You just need to find everything that’s different between the two images shown. Once you have found one of the items, a grid will be lit up below to indicate your progress. Locate all the differences to win! However, clicking on a wrong spot will result in a heart penalty.

Tips and Tricks to Win

• A way to quickly find the differences on the images is by committing the important objects on an image to memory. Make sure to take note of the color and type of objects in one picture.


• Make use of the “systematic search” technique. What this means is that instead of scouring the map randomly in hopes of spotting something that’s on the scene, you start your search from, say, left to right; top to bottom, slowly but surely covering every inch of the scene.


• Be sure of what you’re clicking on since some hidden objects games impose a time, score, or life penalty on the player for every misclick.


• Use the hint feature. There’s no shame in admitting that sometimes, a hidden object may just elude you. Instead of getting stuck on a hidden item and getting increasingly frustrated, it’s sometimes better to just hit that Hint button, find that pesky item, and move on!

How many different types of hidden object games are there?

There are many fun mechanics for finding hidden items. Here are some of the more common types you may encounter when playing hidden objects games:

Text – This is where you’re given a list of items in text form.

Silhouette – This mode spices up things a little more by giving you the shadow or silhouette form of the items you need to find instead of colored pictures. 

Riddle – Some games give players riddles instead of the items’ images or names, where you’re expected to solve the riddle first before attempting to find the item hidden in the game. 

Combination – You’ll be asked to find parts of an item inside a hidden object scene and then combine the fragments to get the tool or clue you need to solve another part of the puzzle in the game.

Time-based – Some hidden object games are designed to be fast-paced, and hence, a time limit is imposed on the player.
