The couples questions game
Five questions, two players. Answer them, share the link, and see how well your partner really knows you.
Free. No signup. Two minutes.
A questions game, not a questionnaire. These are hypotheticals, would-you-rathers and the kind of ridiculous scenarios that are fun to argue about: what you would do with an unexpected day, which of you would survive something absurd, the small preferences nobody has ever thought to ask about.
The rule that makes it a game is the guessing. One person answers, the other predicts, and the score at the end is how well the prediction matched. Wrong answers are usually better than right ones, which is why this format works at a dinner table and a long car journey alike.
Play it in about two minutes, then send it back the other way so you both get a turn.
