A personalized game gift for your best friend when you are long distance: a gift you can play together over a call

What the game is, in one page

Long distance means most gifts arrive late and sit in a parcel. A game arrives as a link, and the two of you can open it on a call, with you narrating the quiz while they play.

Under the hood it is a short pixel game with levels, a quiz and a final level in Almaty, Kazakhstan. You supply the photo, the letters, the questions and, if you like, two NPCs; New York and Tokyo final levels are coming soon.

What to write in the two letters

Write the first letter as a postcard from where you are now and the second as an invitation to the place you will meet.

Five quiz questions to start from

Make the quiz about the routines you share across the distance, like the call at the same time every night.

• Who told the story about the lost phone differently?
• Who always arrives last?
• What was the worst haircut in the group?
• What game did we play all night?
• What was the nickname from school?

Why it suits your best friend

A best friend has heard every story, so the game should retell them in the worst possible way. Use real names, real mistakes and the nickname from school.

Write one letter as a roast and one as the sincere thing you never say, because both are true.

If you want it to arrive tonight

Distance makes physical gifts slow, but digital ones are instant. Gift cards, flowers and a personalized game arrive fast, and an oin game is usually emailed within an hour of payment.

Long distance gifts work when they create a shared moment: something to open on a call, a playlist, the same snack at both ends.

How to make it, step by step

• Choose a clear photo of them that you are authorized to use, and the pixel character is generated from it.
• Write the two letters: one opens the game, one closes the final level.
• Write five quiz questions with their answers; every correct answer gives flowers.
• Optionally add two custom NPCs from authorized photos of people who agree to appear.
• Pay once, $29.90, with no subscription; the game is 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.
