The Child of Light winner is…

Thanks to the lovely folks at Ubisoft, we have a one copy of the deluxe edition of the whimsical and beautiful Child of Light to give away to one poetic reader. Instead of the usual random.org draw, we opted instead – in the very spirit of the game – to have deliver your most apropos rhyming couplets for the prize. Here’s who won.

91UkWCsvHNL._SL1500_

Not just for tenacity and perseverance, we’ve collectively decided the prize should go to Nicole, whose entries weren’t just rhymes, but perfectly matched the tone of the ones in the game.

Worth a mention, though not actually today’s winner is derp, who possessed the same tenacity, and made us giggle a bit, but didn’t quite make us feel like children. Or something.

For the rest of you?

To those who have entered, not winning it sucks
But I urge you to buy it – it’s worth fifteen bucks.

        Yes, please try to keep things on-topic guys. It’s very distracting otherwise.
