FOR FRIENDS · EARLY ACCESS FIRST
Catch up on more than updates.
Bonded is a conversation game for friends who want a one-to-one catch-up to go somewhere new. Both people get the same live prompt. Answer or pass, then follow the story when it becomes more interesting than the game.
Use both apps or invite your friend through their browser.
ONE-TO-ONE FRIENDSHIP
A catch-up is not a status meeting.
Updates tell you what happened. A good question helps you hear what the experience was actually like.
With a new friend
Discover the small details that do not fit inside a normal introduction.
With a close friend
Ask about something you assumed you already knew.
After time apart
Move beyond the timeline of jobs, moves, partners, and plans.
SIX QUESTIONS FOR FRIENDS
Six questions for the friend in front of you.
PLAYFUL
Which version of you would be funniest to meet for coffee: eight, sixteen, or eighty?
What tiny hill are you always willing to die on?
CURIOUS
What have you become unexpectedly good at lately?
Which part of your everyday life do your friends rarely see?
A LITTLE CLOSER
What kind of support feels most useful to you right now?
What do you hope stays true about our friendship as life changes?
A REAL ANSWER
A good question leaves room for a real answer.
Both friends meet the same prompt. Neither person has to lead, and either person can pass. Stay silly, choose something more personal, or stop the session when a story takes over.
The connection does not have to disappear when the catch-up ends. After a Bonded session, both people can choose to Connect. Later, a Ping can say “thinking of you” without asking either person to find an opening line. Want more ideas? Read questions to ask friends and choose one before your next catch-up.
