Reach Ritual: a free game about social media myths

What is Reach Ritual?

Creators swear by rituals: post at 7:03 pm, exactly three emojis, a surprised face, a big red arrow. Build each post from the tokens on the altar and let the god of reach decide. Only the real things (a useful post, a clear first line, replies, a steady rhythm) move the needle.

Reach Ritual is a free satire game about the superstitions creators share: post at 7:03 pm, use exactly three emojis, add a big red arrow.

Build each post from the tokens on the altar and let the god of reach decide. Only useful, clear posts with real replies and a steady rhythm move the needle.
