A digital postcard from Brighton they won’t forget
Pebbles instead of sand, a royal palace topped with onion domes and seagulls with zero respect for your chips. Brighton deserves a postcard with a bit of attitude, and this one you can play.
Pick the Postcard occasion, type “Brighton” where it asks “Where’s it from?” and the game becomes “Greetings from Brighton”, with postcard-flavoured jokes you can rewrite. It finishes with a vintage postcard flying in: “Greetings from Brighton” in big retro letters, your message on the back, a stamp and your signature. The Royal Pavilion, Brighton Palace Pier and the Lanes are all fair game for the jokes.
Matching T-shirts, a karaoke booth and a very loud walk along the prom. A playable postcard is the perfect group chat souvenir, starring the bride to be.
Londoners on a sunny day trip
It's a quick train from London to the coast, so half the city turns up the second the sun comes out. Send one back to the friends stuck in the office.
Pride-goers in August
Brighton Pride is one of the biggest weekends of the year. Send a colourful game to the friends who couldn't make it, with a message only they'll understand.
A climber with someone waiting at the top suits a couple's weekend away, with hearts to grab and cupid misfires to dodge.
Put this in
“Lost my heart in the Lanes. Also lost my way, twice.”
What to write on a Brighton postcard
Name-drop a landmark. “Wish you were here at the Royal Pavilion” works because it’s specific.
Mention what Brighton is known for: fish and chips on the seafront, or Brighton Pride. One specific detail beats “lovely views” every time.
Keep the ending message short: one detail, one feeling, one sign-off. It reads better on a phone screen.
Ending messages to steal
“Lost one chip to a gull and my heart to the Lanes. Brighton, you were brilliant. Wish you were here!”
“Pebbles in my shoes, sun on my face, fish and chips on the pier. Your turn next summer.”
“Best weekend ever. The Royal Pavilion is even more bonkers in real life. Love from the seaside.”

The game shows the place name and your message, not these landmarks: the Postcard look’s far-off silhouettes are generic. Your words do the sightseeing.
How to send it, step by step
Pick the Postcard occasion. Open become.games and choose Postcard. You can try it free with our demo characters straight away, no sign-up needed. To send it, you put your own people in it (drawn from a photo, which needs a plan); publishing and the link are free.
Choose a game style and a look. Any style and any look work. The Postcard look (pastel houses, bunting, chip-thieving seagulls and runaway suitcases) is the natural pick, and for Brighton we’d also try endless runner with the Postcard look.
Type “Brighton” as where it’s from. The “Where’s it from?” field takes up to 24 characters. Your game is titled “Greetings from Brighton”; rename it if you like, e.g. “Guard Your Chips on the Prom”.
Make the jokes yours. The pre-written lines are postcard and holiday flavoured. Swap one for something only Brighton would explain, like a line about the Lanes.
Write the message on the back and send it. The ending is a postcard flying in with the place in big retro letters, your message on the back, a stamp and your signature. Publish it (free, with its own permanent link) and share it on WhatsApp, as a QR code or by copying the link. It plays in the browser on any device.
Free to build and play with our demo characters. To send it, star your own people (drawn from a photo with a plan); publishing and the link are free. See pricing or read how it works.
Brighton postcard: questions
Will the game show the Royal Pavilion?
No. The game is titled “Greetings from Brighton” and ends with a postcard showing the place name in big retro letters and your message, but it doesn’t draw the Royal Pavilion. The Postcard look has far-off landmark silhouettes, but they’re generic, not Brighton’s. That’s what your jokes and message are for: mention the Royal Pavilion in a line and they’ll picture it.
What should I write on a postcard from Brighton?
Keep it short and specific: one place, one moment, one sign-off. For example: “Lost one chip to a gull and my heart to the Lanes. Brighton, you were brilliant. Wish you were here!”
Can I send a Brighton postcard to someone abroad?
Yes. It’s a link, so it plays in the browser on any phone or computer, anywhere in the world, with no download or app store. Send it on WhatsApp, by text or email, or as a QR code.
How much does a digital postcard game cost?
Making, playing and publishing it is free, and every published game gets its own permanent link. To turn your own photos into cartoon characters, or to give the game a custom link like yourname.become.games, you need a plan: £3.49 a month or £19.99 a year. Cancel any time.
