We were complete strangers. An hour later, we were hugging, crying, and talking about things we'd never shared with our closest friends. I couldn't believe how deep we went.

I bought this for a friendship, but used it in a group therapy session first. What started with laughter quickly turned into honest conversations, vulnerability, and real connection. My clients loved it, and I knew this was much more than a game.

I bought this a few weeks after meeting a girl I really liked. Every time we played, we uncovered something new about each other. Looking back, these cards helped build a relationship founded on trust, honesty, and vulnerability.

Overall rating: 4.7 / 5 from 764 reviews.

The cards shipped fast, packaged well, and has a much less threatening aura then the questions it holds. It still takes you and the person youre getting to know to open up and be willing to communicate, but the deck itself definitly has a good streamline and unique aspect to it for helping break the ice.

Ian C. 5/5 Verified

Had dinner with two friends and THINGS GOT DEEP!! This was a nice break-up from just whatever conversation to something that fostered depth and connection. Want to do this again and more frequently:)

Kyndra A. 5/5 Verified

What a great set of cards to play with friends, family, or even bring on a Date (that’s what I did!). We had a lot of fun using this set to ask some deeper questions to get to know each-other. I can even see how it could be helpful to be used solo for someone who is trying to do their own Shadow Work. I’m sure I’ll use it for that as well. Very well thought out questions to force you to dig deep.

I received HDWYG faster than expected 🙏 Can't wait to play.

Patrik F. 5/5 Verified

Perfect gift to give to my best friend for her wedding! She loved it and is excited to play it with her partner!

We been together for a year and we played ▶️ this game and enjoyed every part of it. Learned some new stuff about my girl.

We’re The Yappers Club, located in Honolulu! We host monthly-ish literary gathering that brings together curious, like-minded people for thoughtful conversations inspired by books, essays, articles, and ideas. I’ve been using your cards for icebreakers in the beginning of my events and I absolutely love them …. everyone loves them. It’s just that perfect question to get someone to open up and share things that you absolutely normally would not. Love it.

What We Never Say - The Game That Isn’t My review of HDWYG: I have written two versions of my review for your use. You have my permission to use these in whatever way you want. One is longer but much more accurate and human. The second is shorter and less personal. I hope these help. My review of HDWYG: (Long Form) 1. “HDWYG is the simplest solution to a universally applicable problem. We live fluidly, moving through daily patterns of contact—some meaningful, most habitual. We interact, we nod, we assume. But the truth is: we rarely know each other. Not really. Even those closest to us remain partially veiled behind routine and assumption. This “game” (though it’s more of a guided experience) gently dismantles that illusion. Through three decks—Icebreakers, Confessions, and Getting Deep—it invites participants to speak plainly, vulnerably, and without interruption. Each question becomes a mirror, a bridge, and a doorway. And if answered honestly, it will deepen and strengthen relationships faster than anything I’ve ever witnessed. It’s not flashy. It’s not clever. It’s not performative. It’s real. And that’s what makes it beautiful. Connection—true connection—is the most healing force I know. This tool fosters it with grace, humility, and surprising power. I’m grateful it exists.” ——————————————— My review of HDWYG: (Short Form) 2. “We think we know each other. But most of the time, we’re just skimming the surface. HDWYG invites us to pause, speak honestly, and truly listen. It’s not a game—it’s a tool for real connection. With each question, walls lower and hearts open. What begins as conversation becomes transformation. I’m grateful for it. It’s simple, powerful, and more vital today than ever before. It is real.”

Aaron P. 5/5

Great game and YES it really works on a different level Not going to lie I thought it was a scam type card game but I went ahead and bought it anyways and ima tell you it opened up a can of worms in a good way I found myself and my girlfriend expressing ourselves more then we have ever did and even afterbthe game we played we are still to this day saying everything to one another like it gave us the confidence to continue to tell our own internal secrets and to me that is the best thing to be able to do so YES a million times over her and I enjoyed the game and I will in fact by the one for lovers as well thank you

Anthony T. 5/5

Lol...Three rounds felt like three years of therapy. ....I mean....I've only gone through one three rounds with my daughter, but the amount of tears shed, core memories recalled, and wounds salved would make you think we'd gone through the entire deck. Breh. Thank y'all.

Anjelique H. 5/5

The Genuine Product, without question 5 stars simply doesn't go far enough. You see I got caught by the Fake set. Well n truly scammed. Saw the Instagram post by HDWYG. They were wonderful about it. Helped me out to get a "proper, genuine " set. This arrived in sn outer brown cardboard, as supposed to the bubble bag supplied by the Fakers. The contrast in the quality of the cards the box you store them in. Game play instructions, the extra cards. And notably. NO spelling mistakes. The set is nothing short of magnificent. They team at HDWYG deserve so much credit. Protecting their brand. Giving so much love in their customer service.

Andrew D. 5/5

The right questions can bring one human closer to another I bought this for a friendship that is already deep and I thought this would add a new level of depth. But I got too excited and broke it out in one of group therapy sessions first. *impulse buy becomes impulse tool for growth* My clients LOVED it. We ended up cutting each section in half to expedite the process of getting deeper but it was perfect. We started out with laughs, then pensive thought then the whole mood shifted and there was even sadness but in a good way if that makes sense as we started to open up even more in the group. The questions were a mystery until we pulled them and that’s what made it that much more enjoyable as there wasn’t time to prepare a response. A lot of my clients wanted to answer the question that someone else had gotten so it was a whole other level of interaction that was thoroughly enjoyed by all. I’m going camping this weekend with the friend that I wanted to use the game with. I can guarantee that there will be no shortage in conversation with these cards but I have a feeling they are going to change the dynamic of our relationship for the better.

Tyrone R. 5/5

Perfect to connect, understand, and fall in love I saw this game in an Instagram add well over a year ago. I had just started dating this really amazing women, and I thought we would both enjoy this game. I bought it as soon as I could, and planned a date where we would play it (little did I know the amount of time we would spend playing). I explained to her the concept when it came and she was excited to play. The day it came, we sat down, got comfortable, and started playing. We laughed, told stories, cried. At the end of the many hours of playing, we knew each other much better than before. And the best part was, we barely made a dent in the cards. It was so exciting to have so much more of the game to play next time we were together. In the end, it took us probably a month of playing a couple of times a week to get through the game. In that month, I told her so many things I’ve never told another person, and her too. We even told each other I love you for the first time because of the card “What’s the first thing you think of when you say ‘I love’?” Having these really deep prompts, we were able to tell each other pretty much everything we would want to know, and because of that our relationship is so much stronger than it would be. I can’t thank this game enough for helping me connect with my soul mate. We gonna get married and this game definitely helped push us in that direction. Since I played this game for the first time, I’ve played it with a couple of other people and we have grown so much closer than before. If you want to connect with someone, and really get to understand them, play this game. It’s perfect.

Jacob T. 5/5

Digging thru the layers So far I have only played with two people with vastly different experiences with my partner I got very profound questions that really made you think and I learned a lot about him that I didn’t know and feeling he was not sharing that I was able to affirm and respond to by letting him know that he is needed and wanted. The second was my friend and the questions were pretty simple but I took a step further and forcibly made it thought provoking and share more than what was asked. He’s kind of a direct guy so he just answered the question straight out. Overall it’s been a good experience and even with the second not being as involved by me answering the way I did it encouraged more discussion. I honestly like this a lot it’s question you don’t typically ask people when you first meet or sometimes ever and it really allows you to learn more about the persons you play with. The one that Hit the Hardest for my partner and I was “Why have you kept going?” Which brought a lot of emotion to the table that was being buried. Thanks guys for this great product.

Anthony Y. 5/5

I Met a Girl.... I met a girl. Great start to a review, but I met a girl that I am seriously interested in. I bought this deck a couple weeks after we started dating, with the intention of getting to know her on a more personal and fun level. Two weeks later now, and I grab the deck any chance I can with her, and we pour over questions together. I like to think that my roguish charm and fun banter are what made our relationship so fun and safe, but in reality, every step we took with this deck in hand helped create a relationship that is built on safety, honesty, and vulnerability. Thank you guys.

Chase B. 5/5

Rewarding and eye opening Was able to get so much closer with a friend and with the use of a wild card we cleared up something we kept to ourselves. That being miscommunication but with this game it’s been solved. All I can say is thankyou and plz release more games going even deeper.🙂

Saj J. 5/5

I got this for closure. I got this to try it out with a girl I really like so I do a trial run with my co workers individually and together. Learned some new things. Funny & shocking but it brought us a little closer. With my friends it was a challenge since we don’t take much serious + we’re close at it is but it allowed to get some stuff off my chest which was also nice. It’s a great game. Can’t wait for a Version 2 or updated. I’m definitely keeping this with me as much as I can.

Jordan M. 5/5

Deep conversations had I took it to a breakfast bar and had a nice conversation with another alone seated at the bar, I took it to a shaved ice shop and played it with people why they waited for their drink. I need a ambassador for my sales contributions. Thank you for the good game.

Cody H. 5/5

Scoring system I like the questions, they’re amazing and really fun to talk about. I think it would be more interesting if there was a part to the game where you win or get the question cards. Like if your answer was “better” or more in depth you’d get the card. Idk some kind of point system so it’s less just asking questions back and forth

Hayden H. 4/5

For real, this game will push you to go deep… Honestly, I knew it was going to be intense but not that much. I moved away from my family for my university studies and I don’t really have any friends. I was in the garden of my residence hall and I offered 1 person to play. She in turn called 1 friend and a boy who was walking to the hall also joined us. From the first level I understood what it was about... as we played I realized that everyone has such a different life, insecurities, a past and above all everyone can be vulnerable if they are in a healthy atmosphere and are asked the right questions. We didn’t know each other, but we felt safe. For a while we gave each other a collective hug and we were almost all crying and very moved. Even the boy... at the end of the game, we stayed for a few minutes without talking and at the same time it was like friends who had always known each other... I talked about things I had never talked about even with my best friends and for the first time, I said out loud things that I had never had the courage to say. This was more than a game. I can't wait to play it with my besties and family. I can't believe how deep we went...

Grace K. 5/5

The Game Of All Games… I absolutely love this game! It helped me and my 14yr old daughter to share things and learn things about each other. I bonded with my friends on another level with this amazing game!!I highly recommend it to everyone that I come across, it is a must have in your collection of games!

Cara N. 5/5

We played it at the summer camp both with staff and the kids, went sometimes way overboard and got everyone emotional, or pivoted into more campy versions - yet everyone loved it and wanted more!

Jakub S. 5/5 Verified

I've been taking a random question a day out of the box and sending it to my best friend and we've both been answering it. We've both been taking it seriously because i as well as she want to both get to know each other more on a deeper level. It's been really nice.

Lynn K. 5/5 Verified

It was very interesting and deep lol for lack of better words. My best friend and I played and we have a new love for each other . A better understanding for the way we both think and how different it is! I absolutely suggest this game

Caraballo G. 5/5 Verified

We jumped right in and are learning so much about each other! Also great for friend group conversations to change things up! Love it!!

Amy T. 5/5 Verified

Played with my sister and her boyfriend and things got surprisingly deep even with just icebreakers. Can't wait to play with others and see just how much I can learn about the people in my life.

This little box of questions is perfect for the family, friends and even for first date jitters! Highly recommend

Deborah E. 5/5 Verified

Gotta buy another deck! My wife and I were using it in the car (great for long drives), but one day I set it on top of the car and forgot about it until we got on the highway and I saw them in the rear view mirror as they burst beautifully into the turbulent air behind us. This anecdote is all just to say we like it enough that we're ordering another deck today.

Jeff T. 5/5 Verified

I love that it has 3 levels and then challenges. It’s perfect for when me and my friends get together.

Sofia M. 5/5 Verified

My husband and I love to sit outside on the patio. We are never at a loss for words! Lol, but this little game has really been a lot of fun, we’ve been married for 40 some years, and I’m still learning things about him. I highly recommend anyone who wants to get to know somebody on a deeper level to purchase this.

Bonnie R. 5/5 Verified

Great game for asking thought provoking questions, opening up, and letting someone in. Play with trusted people/person or you will find yourself not being truthful and miss the whole purpose of the experience.

Richard M. 5/5 Verified

I absolutly love playing this with my friends. It really allows you to bond with your friends and learn about them and there past. Absolutly amazing

Justin B. 5/5 Verified

i'm bought this for my friend. we love discourse. since i haven't gifted it to him yet, i played several rounds with mom and grandmother. i've tried for years to get my mom to open up to me, and have a deeper relationship to no avail. this was soooo perfect! my family plays cards ALL the timeC and this was approachable and non- threatening, and fun! i've never seen my mom open up so easily, about questions I want to know. i recommend this 100000000% and will be buying a few more sets to give away.

Jeff R. 5/5 Verified

I’ve only done the “ice breakers” so far and they’ve sparked more meaningful conversations than I’ve had in a while with certain people.

Naomi H. 5/5 Verified

I ordered this for my boyfriend and I to spark conversation on our road trips. We keep it in the car and pull out a few cards when we don’t have a conversation ready to go. We’ve only gone through maybe 1/3 of the cards in each level and already we have learned more about each other. It really gets the deep feelings and emotions going and we love connecting on past memories or talking about things we never thought to bring up. I highly recommend this game to any couple or group of people that want to grow closer and connect!

Kadie B. 5/5 Verified

My teenager is on the spectrum and has a hard time identifying how he “feels” about almost anything. Today, he actually was able to talk about a couple things based on the prompts.

Ruth C. 5/5 Verified

All the questions are great! They encourage you to be more expressive of your true emotions. It's really enjoyable having real conversations that bring people closer

Eric P. 5/5 Verified

Great game! We played between our close friends and we got to know each other a lot more. Be ready to let vulnerability be part of your night.
