About

Duetto After Dark

Features
Read full description

Game night, after dark. Ten games for two, and you both choose how hot it gets. No one sees your no. Mark yes, no or maybe in private. Only the yeses you share are ever shown. Truth or dare, for two. One deck, two phones. One of you asks, the other answers out loud. Call their pick. Choose yours, guess theirs, and find out who reads who. Private, by default. Nothing spicy on your lock screen, notifications or share sheet. Add an app lock if you like. Duetto After Dark is the 18+ companion to Duetto: games for couples who want a little more heat on game night. Every game takes two phones, and it’s for adults only. THE TEN GAMES • Wish List: you each privately mark ideas yes, maybe or no. You only ever see the ones you both said yes to. A no is never shown to anyone. • This or That: pick yours, guess theirs, reveal together. • Questions about each other: one of you answers honestly, the other predicts it. Who reads whom better? • Truth or Dare for two: a card opens on both phones, and you answer out loud or do the dare. • One question a night: write a private answer, sealed until you’ve both answered, then open both together. • Dice: roll three dice on your turn and they land the same way on both phones: what, where and for how long. You give, they receive, then swap. • Taking charge: one of you leads for a few minutes, one request at a time. Nothing starts until the other says yes, any request can be swapped, and then you switch. • Quick duels: quick draw, rock paper scissors or high card, settled in seconds. Lose a round and give up a layer from your own list, or take a forfeit. • Tonight’s scene: you each pick where, the pace and who leads, in secret. Only the choices you both made come together, as one scene on both phones. • The drawn deck: 32 things to try, each a simple diagram. Mark them yes, maybe or no in private; only shared yeses open, under steam you wipe away. Three are free, the rest are in a one-time pack. YOU BOTH SET THE HEAT Every game but the drawn deck has three heat levels, from flirty to hotter. Flirty is free. After Dark Plus lights the other levels on both phones. Either of you can set a limit or switch a topic off. The cooler choice always wins, and only the person who changed it can change it back. YOU STAY IN CONTROL • Skip any card in one tap. No reason needed. • Pause for you both: one tap stops play on both phones. • No photos, no video, no public feed. Just the two of you. • No ads and no tracking. PRIVATE BY DEFAULT • Notifications never say what’s inside. Your lock screen only ever shows “Something new is waiting.” • Optional app lock with Face ID or your passcode, a cover over the app switcher, and a discreet alternate icon. • No widgets and no share cards. • Delete your After Dark data from Settings any time. EASY TO START Sign in with Apple or email, send your partner a code, and pick your colors. You confirm you’re 18 or over when you first open the app. AFTER DARK PLUS Free: every game at the flirty level. After Dark Plus lights the higher levels for you both, and one purchase covers both phones. Choose a yearly plan (new subscribers start with a free trial) or Lifetime, a single payment. You see the price in your own currency before you buy. The drawn deck’s one-time pack is sold on its own, not as part of Plus. SUBSCRIPTION DETAILS After Dark Plus Yearly is an auto-renewing subscription. Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase, and the subscription renews automatically unless it is canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Any free trial converts to a paid subscription unless you cancel first. Manage or cancel any time in your Apple Account settings. After Dark Plus Lifetime and the drawn deck’s pack are one-time purchases with no renewal.
