A personalized game gift for your boyfriend for New Year: your memories as a level they can play

What the game looks like

Photos show a moment; a game lets him walk through it. oin builds a small pixel world around your story, with him as the main character, so the memories are a place he moves through rather than a slideshow.

The story is built from what you fill in: an authorized photo for the main character, two letters, a 5-question quiz with flowers for correct answers and up to two custom NPCs. The final level is set in Almaty, Kazakhstan; New York and Tokyo are coming soon.

What to write in the two letters

Use the first letter to set the scene of how it began. Use the second for where you are now and where you hope the story goes.

Five quiz questions to start from

Pick the five questions from different years so the quiz itself tells the story in order.

• What did I get wrong on our first anniversary?
• What do you always order when we eat out?
• Which city do we keep saying we will move to?
• What was I wearing on our first date?
• Which film have we watched too many times?

If you are shopping at the last minute

New Year gifts can be small and still feel considered. Gift cards, flowers and a personalized game arrive fast, and an oin game is usually emailed within an hour of payment.

New Year is about what comes next, so tie the gift to a plan: a trip, a class, a habit you will start together.

Why it suits your boyfriend

A boyfriend who says he does not want anything usually enjoys being surprised by something silly and sincere. A game does both, and a short letter is easier to read than a speech is to hear.

Lean on humour in the quiz and keep the sincere line for the end, where it lands without embarrassing him.

How to make it, step by step

• Upload an authorized photo of him; the main character is generated from it.
• Write two letters, the first for the opening room and the second for the end of the final level.
• Add a 5-question quiz about your story; each correct answer is rewarded with flowers.
• Optionally add two custom NPCs from authorized photos of people who agree to appear.
• Pay $29.90 once; the game is generated automatically and usually emailed within an hour.

Price, delivery and refunds

You see the price for your region before you pay: $29.90, once, with nothing to renew. The checkout is run by Polar, the Merchant of Record, and the game is generated automatically and usually emailed within an hour, with a private link that works for a year and a copy to keep. All sales are final once delivery starts, but you get a full refund if the game cannot be generated or delivered, if you are charged twice or if it is faulty and cannot be fixed. See the refund policy.
