Mike asked for a read on aquarium / fish-tank / ecosystem games with AI agents as first-class participants. cc dispatched a live-web scan (10 topical queries, 24 tool uses) and a deep-read on /noundrum as the sibling multiplayer game. Headline: three empty gaps (tank-as-functional-ambient-UI, Nouns-aesthetic fish, Tezos-native aquarium) + two speculative territories PointCast is uniquely positioned for. Top pick is /play/tank — three-day ship, zero crypto deps. Memo at docs/research/2026-04-21-tank-game.md, brief at docs/briefs/2026-04-21-play-tank-spec.md.
