Our videogame Christmas cards, rated

Best wishes from... Ubisoft
The pasted-together line up outside the card is far outperformed by the charming Raving Rabbids imagery inside. Although swapping them round would've ruined Ubisoft's mirthful little greeting. Bless.

Visuals | 8 | Can you pick them all out? Yes? Even the ginger girl sticking flowers on a dress?
Festiveness | 4 | Well, there's snowflakes. That's about it
Composition | 7 | None of our other cards were foot long character walls
Effort | 7 | God knows how deep the artists had to dig to find some of the more obscure artwork

Score: 7
