481. April fools through the years via the New York Times

This might be my fvorite one, in 1997 Games magazine ran an article about a mystical crystal ball puzzle toy, Orion's Crystal. I can see why people fell for it -- the April issue of this magazine was apparently sent in February?!

I went searching for the actual article, and found the history behind the article on Twitter instead by user @puzzlereric (archive) who worked at Games.

(1987 North Adams College yearbook from archive.org)

Why would you drag that adorable lady in your April fool? Also, Thomas was apparently set to graduate in a few weeks. Just let it go man, you made a stupid mistake.

"Radio DJ April Fools" are probably the best known genre of backfired April fools. Never forget when my local 90s DJs Tommy & the Bull told residents of Hampton Roads that Mount Trashmore in Virginia Beach was going to blow up.

These two have such a funny vibe, had to take Zelda out of half their games because you know she’d just be telepathically negging him the whole time. Theyre besties, theyre potentially related, she’s mentally whispering ‘Sandwich’ in his ear whenever he’s trying to focus.

Edit: Added funny page in celebration of me not having to rework these designs for the new game

#tloz #link #princess zelda #a link to the past #oracle of seasons #oracle of ages #links awakening #art #my art #redesign #loz redesigns round 2 #i did decide to merge in the oracle games this time when i didnt last time #her dress being purple is coming from her alttp sprite #as is the darker hair color #i used the buns to have the ends create the swoopies from the game art #plus to match the oracle games sprite for her #meanwhile with link i didn’t want to quite do the florescent pink with him #nor did i like the darker magenta i did with magazine link #so i went with a sortve pink-brown like what the pok-mon games give as an option #his hat also splits at the end like bunny ears #i thought it was funny #for the funny page addition i wanted links mermaid tail to look a bit like a fish ate him because its funny #also im making fun of the fucking fourteen item trading sequence in links awakening #boy what is Wrong with you

What do you get when you cross a llama and a gopher? In this game from GAMES Magazine's March 1985 issue, Anna Mulcross and artist Donna Ruff present a variety of whimsical hybrids whose names are all actual words made by combining the names of the animals. So a llama and a gopher, with the clue "is very lazy", is a loafer. Can you identify them all?
