A personalized game gift for your fiancée for Christmas: a quiz built from your inside jokes

Updated: · Disclosure: oin is our own product.

A personalized game gift is a small pixel video game built around your fiancée. With oin (oingift.com) you turn your inside jokes with your fiancée into a quiz for Christmas: the letters, the quiz and the story are yours to write, the final level is set in Almaty, and the game is usually in your inbox within an hour of payment.

What the game looks like

Inside jokes make a relationship hard to explain to anyone else, which is why they make a good quiz. oin turns five of them into questions that gate the levels, with flowers for every right answer.

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 ease her in with a joke only the two of you get, and the second to say what that joke is really about.

Five quiz questions to start from

Mix easy questions with one that nobody else on earth could answer, and put that one last.

  • What did I get wrong on our first anniversary?
  • What do you always order when we eat out?
  • Which song is ours?
  • What is the nickname only I use?
  • Where did we go on our first trip?

Why it suits your fiancée

A fiancée is mid-story, so a game that plays back how you got here and points at what comes next fits the moment. Mention the plans in the second letter.

Use the quiz for the moments that led to the engagement, in order, and finish with the sentence you want read before the wedding.

If you are shopping at the last minute

Shipping deadlines matter in December, but digital gifts do not. Gift cards, flowers and a personalized game arrive fast, and an oin game is usually emailed within an hour of payment.

Wrap something small to open on the day itself. A game or letter can sit under the tree as a card even though it is a digital gift.

How to make it, step by step

  • Choose a clear photo of her that you are authorized to use, and the pixel character is generated from it.
  • Write two letters, the first for the opening room and the second for the end of the final level.
  • Write five quiz questions with their answers; every correct answer gives flowers.
  • Add up to two custom NPCs, friends or family, as long as everyone who appears agrees.
  • Pay once, $29.90, with no subscription; the game is usually emailed within an hour.
