About Question Games to Play With Your Partner
Question games to play with your partner are usually just questions. This deck has a rule: before answering, you both write down what you think the other will say, and you score it. Fifteen questions, thirty answers, and a number at the end that one of you will want to improve on.

Why couples love this game
Scoring changes behaviour. Without a score people give the answer that sounds good; with one they give the answer they think their partner will guess, which is much closer to the truth. It is a small mechanical change that makes the whole deck more honest.
Tips to make it more fun
- Write the prediction down rather than saying it. Saying it out loud changes their answer.
- Be strict about what counts as a match.
- The predictions you get wrong are worth a follow-up.
- Play again in six months and compare scores.
Frequently asked questions
How do you turn questions into a game?
Add a prediction and a score. Both of you write down what you think the other will say, reveal, then compare against the real answers. A point per match, totalled at the end.
Why write the prediction rather than say it?
Because saying it out loud changes what your partner answers. Writing it keeps both answers independent, which is the only way the score means anything.
