Game recognize game, eh? 🤌
Just the other day, I was in a 5e game, wrapping up the session with the mission having gone a little pear-shaped (our "missing person" used our dynamic clash with the bigbad to bolt from hiding for a dilapidated arch across the map, turn it on, jump through ^[^^someone^ ^might've^ ^stuck^ ^hin^ ^a^ ^little.^ ^maybe.^ ^]^), and we got to find out about the Staff Only portals that the gnomish industrial commune used as a sort of super-secret private highway/shortcut network between key locations across the known world... Nevermind the slew of economic and straight up ethical breaches that implies, no, we're keeping it immersive! You heard it here first! *"The Undergnome Railway* is now canon.

In Cyberpunk RED, I wanted an NPC to sound uneducated, so she told the PCs about someone doing "dinographics". I expected the players to ask about it, at which point it'd be clear she was talking about someone doing a *demographic* survey. But they misheard. So now there's a tiny corp called DynoGraphics that does demographics and forecasting. The PCs had to do a lil data extraction heist because of it.

Like Google’s backstory (it may be an urban legend, but I heard they’d intended to name it “googol” but didn’t know how to spell the word, and misspelled it as “Google” when submitting their application). Strange, I suddenly want to have an Italian-inspired, high class restaurant in my game called “Bone Apple Tea”
