Put the phone on the table and let the real talk begin. different but the same is a card game of questions you play with friends, with your partner, or with people you have just met. Flip a card, read the question out loud, tell your story. The questions start light and get deeper before you notice. How to play Every game moves through three stages: first how you see each other, then your stories, and finally where you are today. Passing is always fine; every card is an invitation, never an obligation. Courage cards along the way take the conversation one step further. One phone on the table is all you need. Modes Classic: 139 cards through three stages, Perception, Connection and Reflection. Start for free. Couples: 90 cards for the two of you; Eye to eye, Our story, Us today. Together for years or only just met, get to know each other again. Long Table: Questions for a long evening with a full table, 90 cards that open up as the night goes on. Quick Round: A laugh-out-loud round of "Never have I ever" cards. If you have, raise a hand and tell the story. Red-Green Flag: Start a room and everyone joins free from their own phone. Vote green or red on every statement together, then see who thinks most alike. A new mode every week Every Monday a new mode comes to the table: Old Flames, 3 AM Talks, Firsts, Long Distance, Birthday Table and more. The Dating Guide, Oracle Mode, Masks Off, Most Likely To and Tough Call are waiting too. Question of the day and community A new question every day. Read how others answered and share your own. If you like, get it as a daily notification. Put any question or answer on your Instagram story in one tap: light, dark, or a transparent card to place over any photo.
