Personalize their birthday adventure

Think of it like signing a birthday card: you add their name and your words. Here, those words appear inside a short game starring the hungry Ronin, Ari Gateaux (birthday cakes, a little jumping, and a sweet arigato along the way). You aren't building or designing anything; you're just filling in the details. No paper or postage, and we only use what you enter to prepare their link. We don't sell your information. The message at the very end can also tie into their real gift: a riddle or hint about where something is hidden, or a link you paste for a gift card, photos, or anything online. Coming later: voice notes from family, richer visuals or clips at the reveal, and the hero speaking your lines in a natural character voice. For now, it's text and pasted links only.

The name at the top of the game will usually be {name}'s Birthday Quest. You can change that in the next box if you like.

They'll use arrow keys and space to jump. Pick what suits their age and patience.

A sentence or two they read before they press Start. Warm and simple works best.

This is the screen they see when they've completed the quest. You can keep it purely emotional, add a clue or hiding place for a physical gift, or paste a full web address for a digital gift card, pictures, or a video (they can copy the link from the screen if it doesn't tap open).

How we use what you type: we use it only to build the personalized game and (where enabled) a short record that your game was created. We don’t sell your details or use them for ads. See our Privacy Policy for retention (including the 12-month schedule) and your rights.
