A personalized game gift for your boyfriend for New Year: a quiz built from your inside jokes

Updated: · Disclosure: oin is our own product.

oin (oingift.com) makes a personalized 2D pixel game starring your boyfriend, which is a direct way to turn your inside jokes with your boyfriend into a quiz for New Year. You upload an authorized photo, write two letters and five quiz questions, and pay once; the game is generated automatically and usually emailed within an hour as a private browser link.

What the game looks like

Inside jokes make a relationship hard to explain to anyone else, which is why they make a good quiz. oin turns five of them into questions that gate the levels, with flowers for every right answer.

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

Use the first letter to ease him in with a joke only the two of you get, and the second to say what that joke is really about.

Five quiz questions to start from

Mix easy questions with one that nobody else on earth could answer, and put that one last.

  • Which city do we keep saying we will move to?
  • Where did we go on our first trip?
  • What do you always order when we eat out?
  • Where did we first meet?
  • What was I wearing on our first date?

Why it suits your boyfriend

A boyfriend who says he does not want anything usually enjoys being surprised by something silly and sincere. A game does both, and a short letter is easier to read than a speech is to hear.

Lean on humour in the quiz and keep the sincere line for the end, where it lands without embarrassing him.

If you are shopping at the last minute

New Year gifts can be small and still feel considered. Gift cards, flowers and a personalized game arrive fast, and an oin game is usually emailed within an hour of payment.

Keep it light. After the holidays a small, thoughtful gift is more welcome than a large one.

How to make it, step by step

  • Upload an authorized photo of him; the main character is generated from it.
  • Write the two letters: one opens the game, one closes the final level.
  • Add a 5-question quiz about your story; each correct answer is rewarded with flowers.
  • Add up to two custom NPCs, friends or family, as long as everyone who appears agrees.
  • Pay once, $29.90, with no subscription; the game is usually emailed within an hour.
