US indie developer Mighty Rabbit has added a new Christmas-themed episode to Gold Award-winning iPhone and iPad title Saturday Morning RPG.

In this episode - entitled Ho Ho HOOD - you aid Marty as he attempts to defeat the evil Commander Hood and reclaim the presents that he stole from the helpless citizens of Shadow Valley.

Along the way, you'll have to use your newly acquired decoder ring and carbine-action 200-shot range model air rifle (from the movie A Christmas Story) to overcome the ghosts of Christmas Past, Present, and Future.

Naturally, this episode features plenty of nods to popular festive movies and traditions.

In one of its side-missions, for example, you have to battle it out with two bandits called Harry and Marv (the two villains from Home Alone).

There's also an explorable environment called Toys ARRRRRR Us, which is a pirate-owned toy shop that only flogs nicked goods.

This Xmas-themed episode is available for free if you already own Saturday Morning RPG Deluxe. If you own the free-to-play version of this game, Ho Ho HOOD will set you back £1.49 / $1.99.
