Iberia's website has had a very similar game for at least 3 times in the last 2 years -the last one as recently as last week-, and it's a way to promote their partners. Every day you play (and win, very easy task) you get 5 Iberia points. Not much, but in those 7 days I got 35 points, more than the 30 points I earned in my 4 QF flights in October!
I already have 3 reindeer and only need 6 more to reach the level for a Rimowa Trolley and then I can stop. 
I thought I'd catch another one since it's after midnight in Germany but they seem to know which time zone I'm in and don't let you find another one until after midnight. 
BTW you can play the game in 10 languages.

Yeah, I managed to get the ribbons round their necks, too. As for the Christmas trees, you have to plonk them down inside the enclosure, unlike outside, as I was trying to do so far.
(OT Is there an Iberia game now? I never saw one, although maybe it is only on the Spanish website?...)

Oh, and keep in mind that this is the big, checked-luggage version of that trolley. The cabin version is on my Christmas list.

Has anyone found the reindeer today (Sunday)? Despite clear (but oddly worded - in English anyway) hints I don't seem to be able to find it in the obvious place.

I have the cabin version in black. I stopped using it. The lack of outside pockets drastically reduces the ability to stow stuff and makes it for me very impractical. If I need to use it, I check it now, too
Merry christmas

I understand, by the way, from a friend that the vouchers are also accepted on BMI flights booked via the LH website which are LH codeshares (eg LHR-AMS, where you can basically travel for pretty much free free + taxes by using a UK voucher for the outbound and a Dutch voucher for the inbound).

Seems like you can log in to the game only once a day?! Or rather that you can get the reeindeer only during your first log-in on a day ...

You can log in as many times as you like in a day. You are only offered the hint for the day until you actually pick up a reindeer but it doesn't have to be during your first log-in on the day.

Sadly not true. I tried to book an ex-Germany flight on the French website using a €40 voucher issued using 'France' and it refused the voucher. As a test, I then changed ticket to an ex-Paris flight and the voucher was accepted.
I understand, by the way, from a friend that the vouchers are also accepted on BMI flights booked via the LH website which are LH codeshares (eg LHR-AMS, where you can basically travel for pretty much free free + taxes by using a UK voucher for the outbound and a Dutch voucher for the inbound).

It didn't work for me though. Logged in in the morning, got offered the hint, didn't find the reindeer, logged off. Logged in again in the evening, didn't get the hint any more (but remembered it), found the reindeer - couldn't pick it up though, but was told instead that I already had picked it up. Which I definitely had not.
). It has worked for me even when using a different computer. I don't logout of the game - I just close the browser - if that makes any difference.
