A one-tap game where players lock one of four inks to open matching gates and build the longest possible run.

Why it surfaced

Prismgate turns a simple timing mechanic into a small piece of game-world paperwork: each ink has a shape, gates carry the same markings, and the site keeps records for single runs, streaks, continues, and shields. It is also unusually candid about its rewarded ads, insisting that the scores are not a payout and that there are no purchases or balances.

Ham Is Specifically Discouraged

August 10’s newborn domains include a mock cryptid council that specifically discourages ham, a vintage phone collecting messages for Twyla’s 70th, a 4.5-meter dish measuring Galactic hydrogen at 1420 MHz, and an open index that found 530 sites permitting GPTBot in robots.txt while refusing it at the server.

This is one of 1,000 discoveries in the 2026-08-10 Domain Arrivals issue.
