A pixel game with an appreciation letter Our product
oin turns your story into a small 2D pixel game with her as the main character, generated from an authorized photo, plus two custom NPCs made from authorized photos with consent. Two letters from you open and close it, and one can say what you appreciate, a 5-question quiz about what you value in her rewards flowers for correct answers, and the final level is set in Almaty, Kazakhstan; New York and Tokyo are coming soon. It plays in a browser with no install, is usually emailed within an hour and costs $29.90. See how it works →
A spontaneous trip
A ticket to a city high on her wish list, booked as a surprise with a printed day-by-day plan. Around $100-600.
A piece from a favourite brand
A knit or blazer from COS, Arket or Zara. Check her size. Around $60-250.
An instant camera
A Fujifilm Instax Mini or Polaroid Now for photos she can hold. Around $70-110.
An experience day
A hot-air balloon ride, a pottery workshop or an escape room, booked for a date you pick together. Around $50-250.
A photo book
A printed book of your best photos together, with captions. Order a week ahead. Around $25-70.
A quality notebook
A Moleskine or Leuchtturm1917 with a pen to match. Around $15-40.
An online course
A year of MasterClass or Skillshare, on a topic of her choice. Around $30-200.
A photo shoot
A short session with a photographer, for the two of you. Around $80-250.
A karaoke night
A private room or a microphone at home. Around $20-80.
Open-when letters
A stack of envelopes, each labelled for a moment: open when you miss me, when you need a laugh, when you cannot sleep. It costs little.
Breakfast in bed
Pancakes, coffee and a note on the tray. It costs little.
Shopping for your fiancée in London
Good places to browse in London include Covent Garden, Marylebone High Street, Liberty and, on Sundays, the Columbia Road Flower Market.
The Tube and buses make a lunch-break shopping trip easy, and same-day delivery covers the centre, so a late gift is still possible.
Buying for your fiancée
Engaged couples are busy with plans, so a gift that gives her a break is welcome. A quiet evening, a keepsake or a surprise can mean more than a large item.
Add a note about what you are looking forward to.
If you left it late
Course vouchers and a personalized game can be arranged online the same day, even on the 14th. An oin game is usually emailed within an hour of payment. Pair one with a handwritten card and she still has something to open.
Valentine’s Day gifts compete with everyone else’s, so personal beats expensive. A card in your own words does more than a large bouquet from a florist who is rushed.
A gift that does not depend on London
Shops in London cannot sell this one: a pixel game with her as the hero, two letters from you and a quiz about your story. It is emailed, usually within an hour. The final level is set in Almaty today, with New York and Tokyo coming soon.
Where can I get a last-minute Valentine’s Day gift for my fiancée in London?
Browse Covent Garden, Marylebone High Street, Liberty and, on Sundays, the Columbia Road Flower Market, or order something that arrives the same day: course vouchers and a personalized game. The Tube and buses make a lunch-break shopping trip easy, and same-day delivery covers the centre, so a late gift is still possible.
Can I send my fiancée in London a digital gift?
Yes. A digital gift reaches her instantly wherever she is. An oin game is generated automatically and emailed to you, usually within an hour, as a private link that works in any browser; course vouchers are an even quicker option.
Does oin have a final level set in London?
Not at the moment. Today the final level is set in Almaty, Kazakhstan, and New York and Tokyo are coming soon. The game itself can still be sent to anyone in London as a link.
