Our videogame Christmas cards, rated

Best wishes from... NCSoft
Not only has NCSoft sent 'Warm Wishes' - vital in these knacker-freezing times - but it also bunged in a great big slab of chocolate... stuff. We're not sure it's actual chocolate, more your chocolate-flavoured sweetie thing. Not that we're about to complain... *Scoff*

Visuals | 8 | A sweet card, understated and effective, and the logo's repeated on the chocolate
Festiveness | 6 | Be honest, this starry snapshot could've taken place on any night of the year
Composition | 7 | The constellation is cleverly done, but the card design is a bit top-heavy
Effort | 8 | Hey, we can't knock anyone who sends us edible good tidings

Score: 8
