Deft’s Leaping Rudolf Game Lacks Pep. But Merry Christmas.

Deft Creative Ltd.’s, awkwardly sloganed “Dexterous of hand and inventive of mind,” demonstrates neither dexterity (though they try) nor inventiveness (no effort here) with this dull leaping-Rudolf ski game. The object is to beat the furthest leap and we’re ensured by the agency guy that “All scores on the score board ARE beatable.” Glad he made the effort to bang that in because otherwise we were going to lose sleep over it.

The game is tricky in that it involves holding down your left mouse button and releasing when you feel Rudolf has built enough momentum. Then you let loose and do it all over again. It’s a cross between the high school pole jump and a Friday night spent half-heartedly masturbating. – Contributed by Angela Natividad
