Gist is genuinely the most thought provoking, meaningful, connective card game i’ve come across. it makes you really think and helps you get to know both yourself and the people you’re with! the questions are also set to in a way you can reuse the cards over and over again! so you get true value out of them too. i played it with my sister and brother in law and we ended up going all night until 4 am, just asking each other question after question. i’d honestly use these cards for journaling too. there’s really nothing else like it on the market. this isn’t a maybe. if you want to know yourself better and grow, everyone should get this game ! 🔊🔊💕

I bought gist for my wife and I, and honestly its the best game ever! I'm always learning new things about her every time we play, which is surprising, but amazing. Every time we have friends and family over too, we play to get to know each other on a deeper level.

Gist was a perfect conversation starter for a girls trip/bachelorette. There’s so many cards you never run out of topics - I take it to every intimate event/games night !

I bought the cards to take on a girls trip, and everyone absolutely loved them. The questions led to such meaningful conversations and gave us a much deeper understanding of one another. One of my friends enjoyed them so much that she bought her own set afterwards.
She ended up using the cards with a man she had just started speaking to, they went through all the questions within a week or 2 and now they’re preparing for their engagement! She said the cards really helped them get to know each other on a much deeper level and build an emotional connection.
So THANK YOU for creating such a thoughtful product. Wishing you continued success!!

Absolutely excellent. Has been super handy in keeping my long distance marriage interesting since all we have are calls in between meet ups - gist helps with spicing up our chats in such a beautiful and meaningful way. I highly recommend

Gist is one of those rare conversation card games that doesn’t just fill the silence it transforms it. Every time I’ve played, it’s been purposeful, grounding, and honestly a little awe‑inducing. It has this gentle way of opening doors you didn’t even realise were closed, helping you see your friends, partner and family with fresh eyes and deeper understanding.

This game is definitely unlike others. I've played it with a bunch of my friends; the way it's allowed us to laugh and build camaraderie is crazy!
The range of questions/topics are really creative. Some of these topics I wouldn't even think of. For sure a must to have with old and new friends.

A brilliant game for couples and groups of friends! The questions are fun, engaging, and spark great conversations. The variety of questions keeps the game interesting and encourages meaningful discussions as well as light-hearted moments. Easy to play, brings people together, and creates memorable experiences every time. Great addition to any game night, date night, holiday, or social gathering.

This is such a great game! It encourages open and honest conversations, making it a fun way to connect with friends and get to know each other on a deeper level.

I honestly haven’t played a card game like this before. It’s engaging, thought provoking, and creates some really meaningful conversations. I highly recommend it!

Absolutely love this game! Tbh it’s not so much a “game” in the sense that there can be a winner(s), but when you realise you’ve actually connected with people by the end of it, it is a really rewarding feeling. I’ve taken it out to eat with cousins and friends and also just randomly asked family members to pick a question in passing, and each time has left us wondering what we really know about each other, not in a bad way, but with the realisation that especially in this social media era, it’s so easy to think you know someone without really knowing anything. Call it cliché or cheesy, but in a world of emptiness it’s brought a real sense of fullness. Would definitely recommend if you’re not afraid of finally activating your brain!

Whilst nit having gone through the whole pack the number of cards I've seen opened good conversation and discussion regarding the question or point of reflection

As someone who hates small talk but doesn’t always have the best conversation starters, Gist is IT for me. I love the mixture of lighthearted gist, deep, meaningful and vulnerable conversation guiders for you and your loved ones to delve into.

I brought Gist from an event in Brixton. It has been thought-provoking, amusing and entertaining.
I took the cards on holiday for my 30th Wedding Anniversary and it was hilarious at times and even annoying when my husband gave his answers especially where he being so competitive had no competition to win. Just straight forward questions.
Love these cards. They're great especially with groups of friends too.

Everyone was so invested ahah, it was relatively light hearted but once one person across the table heard an interesting question, everyone wanted to be involved and have a go answering.

Literally can be used in all settings! It just brings people together, so now I’m addicted to carrying it so that there’s never any room for awkward silences!

I genuinely love this game. It created space for my husband and me to have honest conversations that don’t usually come up in everyday life. It was fun, meaningful, and brought us closer together. One of the best conversation games we’ve played!
