A Book of Blorbs
1/21 '26
I'm putting together a thing for folks to enjoy. It's a zine of sorts (PDF) with a collection of 'blorbs' (oddly shaped blobs) in very light grey. Print out the zine, and you have an instant collection of games for kids on a road trip, or with a collection of friends at the pub, or... whatever.
Now, I'm just trying to come up with different 'games' you can play. I've done plenty of 'draw faces with the blorbs as their silhouette' myself. Then, you can really insert whatever noun you want in place of 'faces'. Draw trees with the blorbs as silhouette. You get the idea.
But then, I thought - what if you made the page of blorbs into a fantasy map with each of the blorbs as a separate country?
Or, make each blorb into a full character defending their territory against the other blorbs.
Or... I dunno - what have you got?
(Thanks to Jill "xtingu" Knapp for the term 'blorb'.)
If not, I say cats. Cuz everybody loves cats. And puppies. Mutant insects.
