How to Play Private Game

Private Game is an intimate card game for couples with 600+ cards across five intensity tiers. A single session takes 20–45 minutes and moves through three phases — Connection, Exploration and Passion — to deepen the conversation and closeness between partners.

How to play — step by step

  1. Open Private Game on your phone or TV

    Visit private-game.app in any modern browser — no app store install needed. Open it on one phone for a single-device session, or cast to your TV using display mode for a shared-screen experience.

  2. Choose your mood & session length

    Pick Quick (15 cards) or Classic (22 cards). Then set your tier ceiling: Spark and Warmth for a flirty evening, Heat and above for something more. You can also choose a mood like Romantic, Playful or Intense.

  3. Pass the phone (or use TV mode) and take turns drawing cards

    Each turn, the active player draws a card and follows its prompt. Pass the phone between turns — or let your TV screen show the card while both of you use your phones to control the session.

  4. Answer questions, do tasks and dares, and deepen through the tiers

    Cards move through three phases — Connection, Exploration and Passion — gradually building intimacy. Questions spark conversation, Tasks and Dares create shared moments, Duets bring you closer together.

  5. Finish with aftercare & the wish reveal

    After the final card, both players rate how the session felt and can share a brief note. If scores are tied, both wishes are revealed together. If not, the winner reveals theirs first.
