Full story in comments: ⬇️⬇️⬇️

A polygonal board with a pink cube tower in the middle. The board is split into regions of different colours and covered with tiles, cubes, and wooden figures. On the edges, there are mission tiles.

Character tile with a special ability, and some action cards. The artwork is silly and fun, and the names of the cards (artifacts) support the game's humour.

Next was #TheLoop, a cooperative game with a quirky theme (an evil mastermind with a time machine that causes rifts). The humour and art were the best part, the game itself felt pretty random - and punishing, when missions disappeared as we were about to complete them. #SpielViel

8 years ago, 97.9 #TheLoop switched off to become a Christian music station. This was a very sad day for the city of #Chicago. RIP 97.9 The Loop. March 14 1977 - March 10 2018.

Book Review: The Loop by Jeremy Robert Johnson 😳📚
Chaotic, violent, and high-adrenaline horror with a small-town setup that explodes into full nightmare mode. Dark, fast, and intense.

Delay produces scrutiny; scrutiny produces caution; caution produces more delay.

Whatcha Playing, Geekly: February 2026 Happy Wednesday, Geekly Gang! Kyra Kyle here. In today's post, our writers will share the games (board games and video games) they've been playing over the past month. Let us know which games you've been playing in the comments, because we're all part of the Geekly Gang. I'll get things started with the games I've been playing over the past month. Kyra's Board Games JK Geekly attended Scroogecon (in Lincoln, Nebraska) last month, so many of my board games will be ones I played during that event. Tokkuri Taking was the first game I tried.

Happy Wednesday, Geekly Gang! Today, our writers share what they played over the past month. What've you been playing? #boardgames #videogames #patapon #theloop #kavango #residentevil #clank

Currently Reading: The Loop — Jeremy Robert Johnson.
Think: body horror meets conspiracy in a town that feels one siren away from unraveling. Early pages are wild and way too readable at midnight. 🧪📟

For something to truly be evil... It must be aware that it does wrong, don't you agree?

A sneak peek at the primary antagonist of The LOOP.

Decided to make some slight adjustments to #TheLOOP - at least getting all the busywork I want relating to their designs done before I start writing stories. Most significant change being Flare changing into the Bee. Or honeybee or queen bee or, really any bee thing.

The logo for my superhero OCs, which I've recently been thinking about making a comic involving! Not entirely a "action packed" superhero comic but more focused on little character moments.

Lemme know what y'all think about that idea I suppose!~

Tea Around Town treated us to a truly ☆magical☆ experience today and a much-needed #break from, well, everything! Not just a yummy #AfternoonTea but also a #tour of #Chicago in #TheLoop with lovely singing to accompany!

Ok but I had no idea that there was more than one; there's one in #TheLoop in downtown #Chicago & I had no idea it was a chain and now I feel totally betrayed, lol....we had aMAZing food there though, there's no denying that!

What role have young people played in the nuclear age? I wrote this article for #TheLoop Series on #NuclearPolitics at the ECPR: theloop.ecpr.eu/young-people...

The study of young people in the nuclear ages is ‘unfolding, uncharted, and increasingly consequential’. Thanks for reading! 📚
