Skeal game returns for holiday season as a cherished tradition

It's almost Christmas, and it's time to play Skeal, an annual tradition started by Alice O at RPS. This short, free game created by Nick Cummings can be played in your browser and takes about five minutes. Alice O, who left RPS in April, wrote about Skeal from 2017 to 2023. The game brings joy through its playful wordplay, and many look forward to it each year as a way to reflect on the past. While some traditions may change, the act of creating and sharing remains important. Players are encouraged to enjoy Skeal and consider their own traditions during the holiday season.
