Phantom Ink was so fun! I was able to include 8 new players at game night! Phantom Ink is a fast, party game where teams use "invisible ink" clues to guess a secret word before their opponents. As we played more games, things got tricky with fewer clues. We had a blast! @allplay.bsky.social

First you draw the mouth, then you dot the eyes, add a great big circle and presto its kirb- No. No wait. That's not him. I don't know who that is. #Kirby
An image of a sharp pair of teeth. Two large googly eyes atop a sharp pair of teeth. A hideous being, like a human head wearing rebook shoes with short stubby arms and a toothy mouth stares at the viewer. It's unclear who they are, but they are most definitely not kirby.

Last year, miHoYo copied my puzzle game Ouros in Zenless Zone Zero. Because they are a recognized, billion-dollar studio and my game isn't well known, some people are now assuming that their version is the original, and mine is the clone. I hope this video clears that up.

I swear, every green mythic magic card these days is just this guy. #magic #magicthegathering
A fake magic the gathering card with the name Every Green Mythic, the creature subtype Standard Playable, and 5/3 power toughness. It's text box reads "Trample. Hexproof as long your opponent has cards in their deck.Whenever a land, quadrumpadupalate your counters. "

The image on the card is of a weird circular creature with white horns, two purple eyes on opposite sides of it's head, bird legs, and chinchillas wrapped tail, along with a mouth that is most of its body, and a row of sharp teeth.
