Liverpool digital postcards that beat a photo of the view

Liverpool gave the world the Beatles, put a cathedral at each end of Hope Street and loved one stew so much the locals took its name. The least you can do is send a postcard.

A photo of the Royal Albert Dock says “I was here”. A game says “I was here, I thought of you, and I made you this”. Choose any game style and look, type “Liverpool” as where it’s from, and send the link.

Who sends a postcard from Liverpool?

Music fans on a Beatles pilgrimage

Standing in the Cavern Club where it all started is a proper bucket list moment, and a postcard game is a fun way to tell the other fans back home.

Hen and stag groups

Liverpool is one of the great weekends away, and a game starring the bride or groom is a souvenir that beats a blurry photo from the dance floor.

Scousers who have moved away

A weekend home with a proper bowl of scouse and a ferry across the Mersey is worth shouting about to everyone who has never been.

3 ideas for a Liverpool postcard game

Idea 1

Ticket to Ride the Mersey

The postcard look's chip-thieving gulls and bunting suit a breezy waterfront day, and a one-tap flyer feels like the ferry ride.

Put this in

“Took the ferry across the Mersey. A seagull took my chips.”

Idea 2

Liverpool: Big Night Out

Liverpool is a hen and stag favourite, so a platformer of bouncers, shots and dodgy exes fits the weekend perfectly.

Put this in

“Dodged the bouncer, dodged the ex, couldn't dodge the karaoke.”

Idea 3

All You Need Is Scouse

A winter arena suits a cold day on the docks, with hot chocolate to grab between waves of snowmen.

Put this in

“Two cathedrals, one stew, zero feeling in my fingers. Boss weekend.”

What to write on a Liverpool postcard

  • Name-drop a landmark. “Wish you were here at the Royal Liver Building” works because it’s specific.
  • Mention what Liverpool is known for: the Beatles, or scouse, the stew the locals are named after. One specific detail beats “lovely views” every time.
  • Use the local word: “Boss” (brilliant, top quality). It instantly sounds like it was sent from Liverpool.
  • Keep the ending message short: one detail, one feeling, one sign-off. It reads better on a phone screen.

Ending messages to steal

  • “Stood in the Cavern Club where the Beatles played. Goosebumps. Then I bought a fridge magnet.”
  • “Liverpool was boss. The hen do survived; my voice did not.”
  • “Home for the weekend and had a proper bowl of scouse. Missing it already. Back soon.”

Landmarks to name-drop

  • The Royal Albert Dock
  • The Royal Liver Building
  • The Cavern Club
  • Liverpool Cathedral
  • Liverpool Metropolitan Cathedral

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

  1. 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.
  2. 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 Liverpool we’d also try flappy flyer with the Postcard look.
  3. Type “Liverpool” as where it’s from. The “Where’s it from?” field takes up to 24 characters. Your game is titled “Greetings from Liverpool”; rename it if you like, e.g. “Ticket to Ride the Mersey”.
  4. Make the jokes yours. The pre-written lines are postcard and holiday flavoured. Swap one for something only Liverpool would explain, like a line about The Cavern Club.
  5. 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.

Liverpool postcard: questions

Will the game show the Royal Albert Dock?

No. The game is titled “Greetings from Liverpool” and ends with a postcard showing the place name in big retro letters and your message, but it doesn’t draw the Royal Albert Dock. The Postcard look has far-off landmark silhouettes, but they’re generic, not Liverpool’s. That’s what your jokes and message are for: mention the Royal Albert Dock in a line and they’ll picture it.

What should I write on a postcard from Liverpool?

Keep it short and specific: one place, one moment, one sign-off. For example: “Stood in the Cavern Club where the Beatles played. Goosebumps. Then I bought a fridge magnet.” You could also throw in “Boss” (brilliant, top quality).

Can I put myself in a Liverpool postcard?

Yes. Build and try it free with demo characters, then upload a photo to turn yourself (and whoever you’re with) into cartoon characters, which needs a plan. Everyone in the photo must agree, and the photo is deleted once the characters are made.

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.
