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

Updated: · Disclosure: oin is our own product.

A personalized game gift is a small pixel video game built around your mom. With oin (oingift.com) you turn your inside jokes with your mom into a quiz for Mother’s Day: the letters, the quiz and the story are yours to write, the final level is set in Almaty, and the game is usually in your inbox within an hour of payment.

What the game is, in one page

The quiz is the part she will talk about afterwards. Each question is yours to write, so the only way to pass is to have been there.

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 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.

  • What does Dad or Mom always say at dinner?
  • Where was the first home I remember?
  • Which holiday do we still talk about?
  • Which song played in the car?
  • What was the family pet called?

If Mother’s Day is tomorrow

Flowers and brunch bookings sell out early, but digital gifts do not. Gift cards, flowers and a personalized game arrive fast, and an oin game is usually emailed within an hour of payment.

Mother’s Day gifts land when they show you noticed something. A framed photo, a recipe book or a call with the whole family can mean more than an expensive item.

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.

How to make it, step by step

  • Choose a clear photo of her that you are authorized to use, and the pixel character is generated from it.
  • Write two letters, the first for the opening room and the second for the end of 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.

What is a personalized 2D game gift and how does oingift.com make one?

It is a short video game made about someone you care about. On oingift.com 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.

How do I turn my inside jokes with my mom into a quiz for Mother’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. The game runs in an ordinary web browser on a phone, tablet or computer, so she only has to open the link: no install, no account and no gaming PC.
