How to Play

There are no winners or losers

The objective is to learn more about each other & connect deeper through asking the questions.

There is no time limit to each question

The questions are designed to make you pause and reflect, to be able to answer authentically. So do expect that your answers may not come to mind immediately!

Everything is optional

You can choose to skip any question if you prefer. Feel free to use the hints or ignore them as you like. Remember, this experience is meant to be enjoyable, positive, and meaningful for you. If it doesn’t feel that way, consider taking a break or coming back to it later.

  • Set the Scene

    Think about limiting distractions like your phone, as this game is best played when you can give each other your full attention.

  • Start & End Well

    Consider deciding on a set number of questions before you start. This helps provide a natural end to the game. While sharing can be fulfilling for some, it might be draining for others, so setting a limit can help manage everyone’s energy and comfort levels.

  • Give Thanks

    When someone shares their story, it might be hard to know how best to respond. Try lightly nodding as they speak to signal understanding. Once they’ve finished, you can express your appreciation by saying, ‘thank you for sharing’.

  • Listen Actively

    Sharing about your life can be a uniquely vulnerable experience, and should be met with the most amount of respect, care & presence you can offer.

Ways to Play

Solo

Take a moment to reflect on your own life using the cards. Grab a pen and a notebook or journal. Write down your thoughts and reflections based on the questions provided by the cards.

Classic

Each player takes turns drawing a card and asking the question on it. Once a question is asked, everyone answers that same question before moving on to the next turn.

Campfire

On each turn, a player draws a card and reads the question aloud. The next person in the group then answers that question. After answering, they then

draw a new card for the next person in the group to answer.

Excited to hear what you think of the game!
