Long Story Short : Digital Card Game

Long Story Short is a digital card game for people who want real connection without losing themselves.

Ever ignored a 🚩 because the chemistry was too strong, discovered a dealbreaker too late, or opened your heart only to hit reset? This game brings those conversations forward without turning your date into an interview. Chemistry is easy to find, but shared values are the hard part. It gives you the courage to ask the questions you’ve been too scared to ask since your last heartbreak, while still letting you laugh, learn, and maybe figure out if their mom’s opinion actually matters more than yours.

How You Play

You choose a card and let the conversation unfold.

Some questions are light and playful.

“What is your guilty pleasure?”

Others invite real self-awareness.

“What about you is the hardest to love?”

And some feel quietly intimate.

“Besides the obvious where do you like to be kissed?”

These are not trick questions or pressure questions. They are invitations to be honest, to listen, and to actually get to know each other.

What’s You Get:

Long Story Short includes four thoughtfully designed decks with 48 cards in each.

Know Thy Self: focuses on understanding your own patterns, needs, and boundaries.

Love Actually: explores love, attachment, and emotional needs.

DMC (Deep Meaningful Conversations): opens deeper, reflective conversations.

What If Wednesday: uses hypothetical scenarios to gently reveal values and beliefs.

The Fine Print 

People who play Long Story Short often say the same thing:

“I learned things I never knew about people I’ve known for years.”

It has been used on first dates, in relationships, with friends and family, often leading to a deeper connection than expected.

This is not a game for small talk. It is for people who still believe in love, and want a connection that unfolds naturally, one honest conversation at a time, without trauma dumping or emotional shortcuts.
