First LNE Players

on april 1st, we asked 20 LNE community members to be part of a secret project

they had one task: be the first to ever try out the LNE game and tell us what they thought

this was the experience of 5 of them:

Test Player: Audrey

Played with: Boyfriend

"I played with my boyfriend the day after our 1 year anniversary (so very well timed!). It went really well, we had a lot of fun and I felt very connected and close to him."

"Sharing my biggest secret felt a little scary but I was met with nothing but acceptance and that was nice. And going through my hidden photos felt a little scary too - but it really pushed me out of my comfort zone, and I really enjoy doing that."

"I really really enjoyed this experience, it was so fun and allowed my boyfriend and I to just have a block of time that was full of thoughtful, meaningful, and connecting conversation and bonding..It felt really cool to feel so seen and known."

Test Player: Olivia

Played with: Best friend

"It was the most fun i’ve had in probably weeks or months!! i played with my best friend and we seriously took hours to get through the whole game because we were learning so much about each other that i didn’t even know was possible."

"I felt insanely more close. i thought that i’d reached the limit with how much i could love her, but this opened a whole new world.."

"I loved this game so much. it’s going to be a staple for me, i can’t wait to play it with everyone i know, from my sisters to my friends to the boy i went on a great first date with. i’ve never played anything like this before and it was definitely different, but far from in a bad way.  i’m in love, truly."

Test Player: Tyler

Played with: Sister

"I have always had a rough relationship with my sister and always wanted it’s to be better but it always felt awkward. After playing this game the awkwardness has gone away and I feel more comfortable around her."

"Everything has been so chill ever since. I feel like I can talk freely to her and our connection is more comfortable and a little deeper!"

"I LOVED THE GAME and want to play it with everyone. The levels got deeper and it really does help you grow close. If you both commit to being honest it definitely works."

Test Player: Alessandra

Played with: Best friend

"I played with my best friend. I felt closer to her—which I didn’t think was even possible. We’ve been best friends for so long, more like sisters at this point. And yet somehow this card game brought us even closer."

"She admitted she never liked my ex (honestly, same), and I confessed I’m not exactly a fan of one of her friends... But what surprised me was how it didn’t turn into a gossip session. Instead, it became this really honest moment... It shifted everything. The questions opened up a whole new perspective, and suddenly, we weren’t judging, we were understanding."

"At the end of the day, isn’t that what we’re all craving? Real connection. This game does exactly that. It helps you build deeper relationships—or sometimes, gently shows you that maybe this person isn’t your forever. Either way this game makes asking the hard questions not feel so hard."

Test Player: Asha

Played with: Boyfriend

"I played with my boyfriend who I just started dating a week before we played the game. I was happy and felt a true connection with him... he even got sad when we stopped playing it."

"every time it was my turn to read a question i was genuinely surprised or shocked by what the question was...we still have a lot to learn about each other but after playing the game, it kind of confirmed the feeling that we’ve known each other for a while but we’re just now meeting."

"i’m terrible at getting to know a person (especially if i like them) and this game really helped me get to know someone that i like/am dating. the guy i’m dating has also admitted to being shy/closed off and this game somehow got him to open up to me as well about a lot of things...a lot of memories were made in that park because of this game."
