Research that inspired these games
Two studies helped shape the idea behind this site. In laboratory experiments, couples who completed a seven-minute novel and exciting activity reported greater improvements in relationship quality than those who completed a more familiar task (Aron et al., 2000). A separate study found that pairs completing 45 minutes of gradually more personal questions and activities reported greater closeness than pairs making small talk (Aron et al., 1997).
Those studies tested their own activities, rather than the games on this site. Here, the idea is to make room for a shared activity and a conversation, one card at a time. Play at your own pace and follow the questions that interest you both.

Frequently asked questions
Are these online games for couples really free?
Yes. Every game runs in your browser with nothing to buy, download or sign up for. The site is supported by advertising, which is kept away from the game controls.
Do we need two phones?
No. Every game works on one phone that you pass back and forth or hold between you. If you are apart, the long distance page gives you one code to share, so both phones deal the same cards while you talk.
Are the games appropriate?
Yes. They are written for adults in a relationship and kept tasteful: romance is affectionate rather than explicit, and nothing on the site needs hiding from a roommate.
Which game should we start with?
This or That is the fastest and needs no explanation. Would You Rather is the best all-rounder. Questions for Couples is the one to keep coming back to.
Are there romantic games for couples?
Yes, kept tasteful. Choose the Flirty level in Truth or Dare or the Romance category in Would You Rather and Questions for Couples. Away from the games, leave your partner one of the love notes, or plan an evening from the romantic date ideas.
What are good relationship games to play online on a date night?
Start with How Well Do You Know Me to guess each other’s answers, then Most Likely To for laughs and Questions for Couples to finish with a real conversation. All three run in the browser for free, on one phone at home or two phones on a call.
Is there more than the games on this page?
Yes. Besides the games above, all games gathers 109 card decks that play the same way: questions by topic, date ideas, holiday decks, and clean versions of the classics for friends and family.
