We've Lost The Art Of Talking To Each Other
Texts. Emojis. Emails. Voice Notes. We communicate faster than ever but understand each other less. The conversations that shape our closest relationships are getting shorter, harder to start, and easier to avoid.
THE SOLUTION
Put Your Cards on the Table was built for the moment before the conversation when you know something needs to be said, but you don't quite know how to begin. The card begins it for you.
The unique circular reduces the tension that often makes conversations difficult to start.
The Deck
Using idioms as an anchor, our conversation cards shift the focus away from personal accusation toward shared exploration. No blame. No sides. Just two people and the cards on the table between them.
Each card contains:
- An idiom
- A description of the idiom
- How to use the idiom in conversation

Mutual conflict resolution. Not declared...but shared!
Every player holds one "Resolved!" card. You only play it when you feel the conversation has reached a good place and a solution is reached. There's no clock. No one calls time unilaterally. Both partners decide together when the conversation is done.
