Valentine’s Day games for couples and friends
Whether it’s a date night for two or a Galentine’s party with friends, these games get people talking, laughing and maybe blushing. They all run on one phone, and most work with just two players.
The Would You Rather, Never Have I Ever, Most Likely To and 20 Questions picks below have a Valentine’s card pack. It switches on by itself in early February, and its bolder cards only appear with spicy mode on.
The 5 best games
1. Would You Rather (2+ players)
A love letter or a surprise trip? Fancy dinner or cosy night in? Perfect for learning what your date really wants.
- Read both options out loud.
- Count to three. Everyone points left for the first option or right for the second.
- Tap every player on the bigger side. They each score 1. A tie means nobody scores.
- Tap Next turn for a new question.
2. Truth or Dare (2+ players)
Honest questions and harmless dares for two, with spicy mode for couples who want bolder ones.
- The player whose turn it is chooses Truth or Dare.
- Read the card out loud. Answer the truth honestly, or do the dare.
- Did they do it? Tap them for 1 point. No points for chickening out.
- Anyone can tap New card to swap a prompt that doesn’t feel right.
3. Never Have I Ever (3+ players)
Romantic confessions, from playlists made for a crush to forgotten anniversaries.
- Read the “Never have I ever…” statement out loud.
- Anyone who HAS done it raises a hand. Telling the story is optional.
- Tap each player with a hand up. They each score 1.
- Tap Next turn. The highest score at the end is the most adventurous.
4. Most Likely To (3+ players)
For Galentine’s: who will plan a flash-mob proposal, and who will celebrate with friends instead?
- Read the “Most likely to…” prompt out loud.
- Count to three. Everyone points at the player they think fits best, all at once.
- Tap the player with the most fingers pointing at them. A tie means all tied players score.
- Tap Next turn for a new prompt.
5. 20 Questions (2+ players)
A gentle game for two: guess the secret love-themed object in twenty questions.
- The answerer taps Peek, memorises the secret, then taps Hide it.
- Everyone else takes turns asking yes-or-no questions. Tap + after each one to count them, up to 20.
- The answerer can only say yes or no. Tap Reveal when someone guesses, or after question 20.
- Tap whoever guessed it for 1 point. If nobody did, tap the answerer instead.
