A personalized game gift for your sister for Christmas: your memories as a level they can play
Updated: · Disclosure: oin is our own product.
A personalized game gift is a small pixel video game built around your sister. With oin (oingift.com) you turn your memories with your sister into a playable game 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
Photos show a moment; a game lets her walk through it. oin builds a small pixel world around your story, with her as the main character, so the memories are a place she 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.
- Where was the first home I remember?
- Which song played in the car?
- Who always loses at the board game?
- What was the family pet called?
- What did we get wrong about the road trip?
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.
Why it suits your sister
A sister has the longest shared history in your life, so the game can be as silly as you like. Childhood nicknames and family legends make the best quiz questions.
Let the first letter tease and the second say how much you actually rely on her.
How to make it, step by step
- Upload an authorized photo of her; 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 shared memories; 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
It costs $29.90 as a one-time payment, with regional pricing and no subscription. Payment runs on a secure Polar checkout and Polar is the Merchant of Record, so oin never sees your card. After payment the game is generated automatically and emailed, usually within an hour, as a private link that stays available for one year plus a downloadable copy. If generation fails, the payment is refunded automatically. 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.
