A personalized game gift for your mom for International Women’s Day: a quiz built from your inside jokes

Updated: · Disclosure: oin is our own product.

To turn your inside jokes with your mom into a quiz for International Women’s Day, give her a personalized 2D pixel game from oin (oingift.com). She becomes the main character, generated from an authorized photo, and your two letters and a 5-question quiz about your shared memories are built into the levels. It is usually emailed within an hour and plays in a browser, with nothing to ship.

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.

The story is built from what you fill in: an authorized photo for the main character, two letters, a 5-question quiz with flowers for correct answers and up to two custom NPCs. The final level is set in Almaty, Kazakhstan; New York and Tokyo are coming soon.

What to write in the two letters

Use the first letter to ease her 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.

  • Who always loses at the board game?
  • What does Dad or Mom always say at dinner?
  • What did you call me when I was small?
  • What was the family pet called?
  • What did we get wrong about the road trip?

Why it suits your mom

A mom will read every word, so write for that. Choose a photo she loves, tell the story of something she did for you, and make the quiz about family memories she will recognise.

Keep the controls simple: it opens from a link in a browser, so she does not need to install anything.

If Women’s Day is tomorrow

Flowers and sweet things arrive fast, and an oin game is usually emailed within an hour of payment. Gift cards, flowers and a personalized game are quick to arrange.

Women’s Day on March 8 is about recognition, so the note matters as much as the gift. Say what you value about her, specifically.

How to make it, step by step

  • Upload an authorized photo of her; 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 shared memories; 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.

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.

How do I turn my inside jokes with my mom into a quiz for International Women’s Day?

Start from the jokes you quote most often and turn each into a multiple-choice question. The game gives flowers for every correct answer and ends on your second letter.

How long does it take to receive the game?

Usually within an hour. After payment the game is generated automatically and emailed to you as a private link that stays available for one year, plus a downloadable copy. Nothing is shipped, so it does not matter where she lives.

Can my mom play it on a phone without installing anything?

Yes. It plays in a browser on any recent phone, so she taps the link and plays. Nothing to download or install.
