“The most creative party game we've played in years...

...my friends were writing connections, and I'm like, "How did your mind go there??"

Meet Open Relationships
A Venn diagram-inspired, endlessly replayable party game for creative people. 


What's the funniest thing "Santa" and "Bedwetting" have in common? (We think "Surprisingly warm" might be the winner, but that's your call.)


No two rounds of Open Relationships are ever the same. If you’re sick of “play a card, judge picks the winner” style party games, we think you’ll like this one.


Players connect two intentionally different ideas using their imagination and sense of humor, with hundreds of dry-erase prompt cards and some markers.

Our Story

Hello! We're Evan and Josh, lifelong quirky board gamers and general mischief makers.

Hilarious Venn diagrams are peak internet. Connecting two wildly different ideas in clever ways isn’t just hilarious, it’s thought-provoking and satisfying when done well. Whether you’re finding common ground between anti-vaxxers and responsible bartenders, or strippers and cats, you’re creating comedy gold.

But, finding two seemingly unrelated ideas and connecting them in a funny way can be really hard to do. That's what inspired us to create Open Relationships: a game that puts intentionally different ideas in front of players and sets them up with prompts to make smart, unexpected, and always laugh-out-loud connections between them.

We also wanted to make a game that was endlessly replayable and always unique — we’ve designed Open Relationships so no two rounds are ever the same. 

We're incredibly appreciative of our Very Special Games community for helping us get our other games started, and we hope this is your favorite yet!
—Evan + Josh

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Is the game appropriate for everyone?

    Probably not everyone! A good amount of the purple and pink cards are risque or mature, and often the way two ideas are connected  can be...surprising. The last part depends on how clean or dirty the players are. But, while the game's rated 17+, we've taken care to make sure the content isn't thoughtlessly offensive (it punches up, not down!)

  • What is a venn diagram?

    According to Wikipedia, a Venn diagram is a widely used diagram style that shows the logical relation between sets, popularized by John Venn in the 1880s. The diagrams are used to teach elementary set theory, and to illustrate simple set relationships in probability, logic, statistics, linguistics and computer science. 


    But it's the one with two colored circles that overlap and make a connection between two ideas.

  • How many players?

    The game is designed for 3-6 players, but you can easily play "Party Mode" with 7+ players — directions for this gameplay version are included in the instructions!

  • How do the cards work?

    The Connection Cards have a dry-erase coating on them which allows players to write directly on them, and erase their creations at the end of each round. The cards are durable and ready to stand up to hundreds of hours of your wildest connections.

  • How many different ways can you connect two ideas?

    A whole lot, it turns out. The Response Cards help by prompting you with different ideas as starting points, but it's really left up to the imagination of the players. 


    One person might connect "My Boss" and "Socks" by thinking about how they're old and crusty, while someone else thinks about how they're always sticking a foot in their mouth, and another person might say they're a little *too* white.
