The game is fun, although I feel the state of the relationship the players are in can make certain cards redundant (to give an example: asking about family history can work for new relationships, but may be skipped for those that have been dating for a while).

I think the progression of the intensity of the cards can be improved too: it supposedly goes from less to more intense, but there seem to be a mix mash of intensities a third of the deck in and that can be a slight turn off. All in all it is fun to play with your partner.

I bought this for my husband and myself who are going through a bit of a rough time in our marriage. (We've known each other for seven years and have been married for five.) This is really helping so far to open up conversation. We do a couple of cards every night. We've liked most of the questions so far. I think they're pretty good for getting to know someone more intimately. I would recommend this to any couple who has been together for more than a few weeks really. In fact, I'm thinking of giving it as gifts to my parents and sister and brother-in-law.

The discussion that these cards started was indeed intense. At first we both were unsure about the deck of cards. We did skip a few questions (that we plan to return to at some point) but as we kept going, we got deep and connected in a very interesting way. I don't think this deck is for everyone, but if you're feeling brave, if you're feeling the pull -- I say go for it :P
