Tenby's Welsh name, Dinbych-y-pysgod, means 'little fort of the fish', which is fair: there are town walls, a harbour and a great deal of fish and chips. The houses look like a box of sugared almonds.
A photo of Tenby Harbour 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 “Tenby” as where it’s from, and send the link.
Three sandy beaches, rock pools and a harbour full of boats make Tenby a classic bucket and spade trip, and a game starring the kids is the perfect postcard.
Pastel houses, harbour sunsets and seafood suppers make it an easy romantic break. A postcard to friends says it all.
Running into the sea in fancy dress on Boxing Day is a proper Tenby tradition, and anyone brave enough to do it has earned the right to brag.
Idea 1
Tenby is known for its pastel harbour houses, so the postcard look's own pastel houses, bunting and chip-thieving gulls feel right.
Put this in
“Ate chips on the harbour wall. The gulls held a meeting about it.”
Idea 2
Tenby's Boxing Day swim is a festive tradition, so a Christmas arena of snowballs and mince pies suits the brave.
Put this in
“Swam in the sea on Boxing Day. My toes have filed for divorce.”
Idea 3
Pastel houses and harbour sunsets make Tenby a romantic weekend, and the Valentine's look's roses and hearts fit.
Put this in
“Took the boat to Caldey. Bought chocolate from the monks. Ate it before we docked.”

Landmarks to name-drop
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.
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.
No. The game is titled “Greetings from Tenby” and ends with a postcard showing the place name in big retro letters and your message, but it doesn’t draw Tenby Harbour. The Postcard look has far-off landmark silhouettes, but they’re generic, not Tenby’s. That’s what your jokes and message are for: mention Tenby Harbour in a line and they’ll picture it.
Keep it short and specific: one place, one moment, one sign-off. For example: “Tenby is a box of sweets with a beach attached. Kids are sandy, I'm happy.”
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.
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.
Pick the Postcard occasion, type where it’s from, write the message on the back and share the link. It plays on any device, no download.
