The Important Questions

How do I play the game?

Draw a card. Each card contains two questions. Start by asking the top question first. Then, follow up with the question bellow to deepen the conversation.

We recommend pairing the game with an open-mind, active listening, and a respect for different opinions. The rest is up to you!

Here are our favorite ways to ✨spice✨ things up:
1. If a player opts out of answering a question, they have to make a confession (the more "off the record," the better).

2. Playing in a bigger group? Try a "speed dating" approach. Everyone numbers off (half of the group become ones and the second half become twos). Pair everyone up, so that each pair has a one and a two. All ones draw a card and all twos will answer the questions. Put the timer on for 2 minutes. After time is up, pair up with someone else and repeat until all ones have chatted with all twos!

3. If a player opts out of answering a question, they have to complete a dare!
