The Op Games Releases Newly Refreshed Party Game Anomia

Available Now, The Award-Winning Fast-Paced Card Game is Back with an Updated Look

CARLSBAD, Calif., Sept. 17, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — The Op Games, the board game and puzzle publisher behind iconic licensed games and best-selling party games Telestrations®, Blank Slate™, Hues and Cues™, The Original Tapple®, and Flip 7™, today announced that its updated version of the 2009 award-winning party game, Anomia, is officially available now. Following a partnership announcement in February, fans can now enjoy the newly refreshed fast-paced card game nationwide.

With over 2 million copies sold since its inception in 2009, Anomia has spent more than 15 years putting quick-thinking skills under pressure to the test every game night. Now, The Op is introducing Anomia to a new generation of players with a bright, colorful update to packaging and card design, ensuring it will be a game that is reached for decades to come.

As a MENSA Select Winner (2010), ASTRA Best Toys for Kids Winner (2010), and UK Games Expo – Best Party Game Winner (2014), Anomia is a simple, fast-paced game designed for 3-6 players ages 10+. Players flip cards until the symbols on two players’ cards match, then matching players race to give an example of the category on their opponent’s card – from things to eat and pop songs to websites, dog breeds, and more. It sounds easy, but players find that their brains work a little differently under pressure! To make things even more exciting, wild cards are also in the mix to create unexpected matches, and the simple act of losing a card can set off a chain of cascading face-offs. Endlessly replayable and quick to learn, Anomia makes for the perfect college ice-breaker, family game night addition, or holiday party entertainment.

“This partnership has been months in the making, and we couldn’t be more excited to officially put this refreshed edition of Anomia into players’ hands,” said Dane Chapin, CEO of The Op. “Anomia has everything we love in a party game. It’s easy to jump into, always makes for shared laughter around a table no matter who you play with, and no two games play out quite the same. We’re thrilled to help introduce it to a whole new generation.”

“I couldn’t be more thrilled about this next chapter in Anomia’s life!” Said Andrew Innes, Game Designer. “The team at The Op has brought so much energy, enthusiasm, and creativity to the game, and it’s been an absolute pleasure working with them. I love the new design! It feels fresh and vibrant while still retaining the high-intensity hilarity that Anomia is so well known for. Seeing this new edition out in the world is incredibly exciting!”

Designed for 3-6 players, ages 10+, Anomia (MSRP: $17.95) is available now on Amazon and in select brick-and-mortar stores.

Omneky Brings Its AI Growth Agent to Slack, Extending the Premier Agentic Harness for Advertising

Published

By

Marketing teams can now brief, approve, and launch ad campaigns from the channels where they already work

SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 17, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Omneky, the autonomous AI growth platform, today announced a Slack integration that brings the Omneky AI Growth Agent into the channels where marketing teams plan, review, and approve their work. The launch comes during Dreamforce week, as Salesforce, Slack’s parent company, brings the Slack ecosystem to Omneky’s home city of San Francisco.

A growth lead posts a brief in a channel and tags Omneky. The agent researches the brand and its competitors, proposes a strategy, and returns creative variants in the thread. Teammates comment and approve. The agent then launches the campaign, shifts budget toward the variants that convert, and posts pacing and performance updates back to the channel.

Slack joins Omneky’s public API, MCP server, and Claude and Grok connectors, all driving the same harness: the customer’s brand ontology, closed-loop performance data across more than $1 billion in ad spend, media buying across six channels including ChatGPT, human approval controls, and a router that picks the best model across Claude, GPT, Grok, Gemini, Seedance, and others. That is what makes Omneky the premier agentic harness for advertising. Whatever agent a team uses, Omneky is the layer that lets it research, create, launch, and optimize ads.

“Agents are going to run advertising, and they need a harness built for it: the brand data, the models, the channels, and the controls. We built that harness, and Slack is now one more place teams can drive it,” said Hikari Senju, Founder and CEO of Omneky.

The integration is available today to all Omneky customers at https://omneky.com/slack. New customers can start a free trial at omneky.com. To schedule a briefing during Dreamforce week, contact hi@omneky.com.

Linkind Light Stick Launches at tm:rw, Bringing Immersive Smart Lighting to Experiential Retail

Published

By

Linkind brings its latest smart lighting innovation into tm:rw, giving consumers a new way to experience dynamic, customizable lighting in person.

NEW YORK, Sept. 17, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Linkind, a smart lighting brand focused on making expressive, connected lighting more accessible, announced the launch and retail installation of the Linkind Smart Light Stick at tm:rw, the technology-focused experiential retail destination in New York City.

The installation gives visitors the opportunity to experience Light Stick beyond the screen, with a dedicated retail presence designed to showcase its dynamic lighting effects, highly customizable color control, and ability to transform the atmosphere of a space.

Light Stick represents a new direction for Linkind’s smart lighting portfolio, combining functional illumination with a more expressive approach to ambient lighting. Featuring 50 independently controllable color zones, more than 120 preset effects, 16 million colors, and dynamic flame-inspired effects, Light Stick can create everything from subtle ambient illumination to bold, animated lighting displays.

With support for Matter, Light Stick can also integrate across compatible smart home ecosystems, bringing its visual capabilities into the wider connected home.

Smart Lighting You Can Experience

The tm:rw installation is designed to turn those capabilities into a physical experience.

Rather than relying solely on product imagery or specifications, visitors can see Light Stick’s color, movement, and effects operating in a real environment, and experience how multiple lights can work together to dramatically change the character of a space.

“Light Stick is a product that really needs to be experienced,” said Kevin Bright, Communications Director, Linkind. “Its impact comes from seeing the movement, color and depth it can create in a room. tm:rw gives us an opportunity to take that experience out of a product page and put it directly in front of people.”

The installation also reflects Linkind’s broader push toward experience-led smart lighting—products that do more than simply turn on, off, or change color, and instead allow consumers to actively shape the atmosphere of their homes.

Bringing Linkind into the Physical Retail Experience

The launch at tm:rw represents another step in Linkind’s expanding physical retail presence and gives the brand a platform for consumers, creators, and technology enthusiasts to discover its products firsthand.

tm:rw is built around interactive technology discovery, creating an environment where emerging products can be demonstrated and experienced rather than simply displayed on shelves.

“Consumers increasingly want to understand what new technology actually does for them before they bring it into their homes,” said Kevin. “Products like Light Stick are particularly well suited to an experiential environment because the product itself becomes part of the space.”

The Linkind Smart Light Stick is now on display and available at tm:rw in New York City and is available online at Linkind and Amazon.

About Linkind

Linkind creates smart lighting designed to make connected homes more colorful, expressive and accessible. From everyday illumination to immersive entertainment and outdoor lighting, Linkind combines smart-home connectivity with creative lighting experiences that allow people to shape their spaces around the way they live.

WareSpace Expands in South Florida and Enters Bay Area with $36.5 Million in Industrial Acquisitions

Published

on

By

The acquisitions add warehouse space for more than 210 small businesses in two supply-constrained markets and bring WareSpace to 34 facilities and more than 3.2 million square feet nationwide.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 17, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — WareSpace, a leading operator of micro-bay warehouse space, today announced $36.5 million in industrial acquisitions in Miami Gardens, Florida, and South San Francisco, California. The acquisitions mark WareSpace’s third property in South Florida and its first in the Bay Area, and will create more than 210 flexible warehouse units for small businesses in two markets where appropriately sized industrial space is increasingly difficult to find.

The deals add approximately 164,000 square feet to WareSpace’s national footprint and bring the company to 34 facilities totaling more than 3.2 million square feet nationwide. They also follow WareSpace’s recent $300 million capital commitment from Jadian Capital, and its first portfolio-level acquisition, which added five properties across four new U.S. markets in July.

In South Florida, WareSpace acquired 4900 NW 167th Street in Miami Gardens for $20.42 million. The 100,000-square-foot property will be converted into flexible warehouse units, expected to serve more than 125 small businesses, along one of Miami-Dade County’s busiest commercial corridors. The property has direct access to the Palmetto Expressway and I-95 and is approximately 18 minutes from WareSpace’s existing Medley location and 35 minutes from the Fort Lauderdale location, which opened earlier this year.

In South San Francisco, WareSpace purchased 161 Starlite Street for $16.05 million. The 64,103-square-foot industrial property will be converted into 85+ flexible units for small businesses in one of the country’s most supply-constrained industrial markets. Small-bay industrial inventory in the area has declined by approximately 5% over the past five years, with no new small-bay supply currently under construction.

“These acquisitions are in very different parts of the country, but the opportunity is remarkably similar,” said Joseph Ely, Co-Founder and COO of WareSpace. “Both areas are population dense, high-barrier markets where small businesses need industrial space close to their customers and employees, but appropriately sized options are increasingly difficult, if not impossible, to find. We’re continuing to invest in locations and assets where we see that disconnect and where our model can solve a real need for business owners across America.”

“Miami gives us the opportunity to build on the momentum we’ve already established in South Florida, while South San Francisco opens the door to a new market where industrial space is becoming increasingly scarce,” said Levi Cohen, Co-Founder and CEO of WareSpace. “Both acquisitions reflect how we’re growing — expanding in markets where we’ve seen strong demand while selectively entering new ones where we see a clear opportunity for the WareSpace model.”

WareSpace will reposition both properties into flexible, move-in-ready warehouse units typically ranging from approximately 200 to 2,000 square feet. The company’s model combines shorter-term leases with all-inclusive pricing and on-site services, giving contractors, e-commerce businesses, distributors, service companies and other small operators access to industrial space without the size and long-term commitments associated with traditional warehouse leases.

The two acquisitions continue a period of rapid national growth for WareSpace as it expands its micro-bay model across major U.S. metropolitan areas.
