Is there a limit on how many cards I can draw?

On the free plan you get three new cards a day across all four games together. Pro removes the limit, and cards you already drew stay readable either way.

Can I switch games in the middle of an evening?

Any time. Switching does not reset anything, and the cards you already played stay marked as played.

Does it work with no internet?

Fully. Cards, meet-ups and your collection live on the device, so bad signal in a bar changes nothing.

Are the questions we played saved?

Every card you draw is saved to that meet-up, so you can look back at what you talked about. The ones you liked are collected as favourites.

Do the same cards come round again?

Not inside one evening. And a card you did not like can be hidden so it stops appearing.

How many people do you need?

Three games work from two people. Who Knows Better needs three, because its cards ask one person about another.

When does it land? A slow evening when you actually want to talk

This one is not a race. A single question can hold the table for twenty minutes, and that is the point rather than a problem. Every card asks for a moment with a time and a place in it instead of an opinion or a favourite, and that small difference is why the answers stop sounding like small talk.

Rules

Ask one person rather than throwing the card at the table
Let the silence sit, the first answer is rarely the real one
Follow up on one detail from what they just said
When the story ends, pass the cards to whoever answered
Nobody has to answer and nobody explains why not

Cards from the set

Tell us about a day that turned out completely different from the plan
Tell us about the last time you were proud of yourself and told nobody
Tell us about a stranger you still think about
Tell us about the best thing you ever bought for under ten euros
Tell us about a moment you knew a friendship would last
Tell us about a place you would go back to tomorrow

How else can you play?

Without drinking, nothing changes, this is the set for a long evening and a clear head
For two, it works best of all, one question and two answers fill an hour easily
From six people, answer in pairs, so it stays a conversation instead of a queue
On a walk, the cards read fine out loud, one question per block works well

Advice for the host

Ask the follow-up, one question about a detail unlocks the actual story
Do not answer first, people copy the length of whoever answered before them
If a question lands flat, drop it and move on without discussing why it did

Questions about this game

Is this good for two people?

It is the best of the four for two. The cards ask for stories, and two people can follow a story without waiting for a turn.

What if someone gives a one-word answer?

Ask about one detail of it. That is usually all it takes, which is why the follow-up is written into the rules.

Are the questions personal?

They ask for moments rather than secrets. Nothing in the set forces a confession, so it works with parents and colleagues too.

Can I play in the browser?

Yes, eight cards a day on this page. The app keeps the full set and does not repeat what it has already asked you.
