Blowing out the candles is fine. Dodging rogue candles in a game about yourself is better. The office card has seventeen signatures and one “who is this?”. Make your coworker something they’ll actually remember: a game where they’re the hero.
Our pick: flappy flyer with the Birthday theme. Your coworker dodge balloons and rogue candles, grab cake and presents, and the game finishes with a trophy ending carrying your own message. Every line is pre-written and funny out of the box, and you can change any of it.
