Game Description:
Pronoun Palace is a word-spelling roguelike set in a dystopian future where the government has taken your pronouns. Use spells to manipulate letter tiles, catch fish, and abuse amphetamines to defeat the Party and get your pronouns back!
Gameplay
Strategize your spelling; use wooden tiles to attack and plastic tiles to defend. Activate spells to manipulate tiles to your favor—shift letters across the alphabet, turn tiles into candy, and watch words spell themselves with wildcards.
Retransition as different characters in the face of an oppressive bureaucratic collectivist state. Take advantage of their unique abilities to hole punch tiles and submit multiple words at once, weave through fish to catch specific letters, or juggle ticking bombs against a racing clock!
Battle a wide variety of enemies that each change the game. Manage tiles afflicted with effects such as poison, trigrams, and capital letters. Solve mystery letters through deduction, keep yaoi and yuri tiles from touching, or spell words long enough to make an enemy heel!

50+ unique enemy encounters
75+ different spells
70+ unlockable achievements
10+ difficulty levels
Daily runs, complete with leaderboards

Game Description:
Final Fantasy XIV is a massively multiplayer online role-playing game (MMORPG) developed and published by Square Enix. Directed and produced by Naoki Yoshida, it was released worldwide for Microsoft Windows and PlayStation 3 in August 2013, as a replacement for the failed 2010 version of the game, with support for PlayStation 4 and macOS releasing later. An Xbox One version is in development. Final Fantasy XIV takes place in the fictional land of Eorzea, five years after the events of the original 2010 release. At the conclusion of the original game, the primal dragon Bahamut escapes from its lunar prison to initiate the Seventh Umbral Calamity, an apocalyptic event which destroys much of Eorzea. Through the gods blessing, the player character escapes the devastation by time traveling five years into the future. As Eorzea recovers and rebuilds, the player must deal with the impending threat of invasion by the Garlean Empire from the north.
The original Final Fantasy XIV, released in September 2010, was a critical and commercial failure. In response, then-Square Enix President Yoichi Wada announced that a new team, led by Yoshida, would take over and attempt to fix the issues with it. This team was responsible for generating content for the original version as well as developing a brand new game which would address all of the previous releases criticisms. This new game, initially dubbed Version 2.0, features a new game engine, improved server infrastructure, and revamped gameplay, interface, and story. The original version shut down in November 2012 and was followed by an alpha test for Version 2.0.
The game released to largely positive reception; critics praised the game for its solid mechanics and progression, and they commended Yoshida for turning the project around. After a poor 2013 fiscal year, Square Enix executives attributed the companys 2014 return to profitability in part to the games strong sales and subscriber base, reaching a total of over 20 million registered players by 2020. Since release, the game has had a number of content updates produced for it, including three major expansion packs: Heavensward (2015), Stormblood (2017), and Shadowbringers (2019).
Gameplay
Final Fantasy XIV is an MMORPG and features a persistent world in which players can interact with each other and the environment. Players create and customize their characters for use in the game, including name, race, gender, facial features, and starting class. Unlike in the original release, players may only choose to be a Disciple of War or Magic as a starting class—Disciples of the Hand and Land are initially unavailable. Players must also select a game server for characters to exist on. While servers are not explicitly delineated by language, data centers have been placed in the supported regions (i.e., North America, Europe, Japan) to improve the communication latency between the server and the client computer and players are recommended to choose a server in their region. Regardless of server or language, the game features a large library of automatically translated game terms and general phrases which allow players who speak different languages to communicate.
