2How to use

  • Use the reflection moments to notice what you’re learning about each other.
  • End on the Connect deck — where laughter and lightness seal the bond.
3Why it works

Friendship isn’t random — it follows predictable psychological patterns.
Research shows that lasting bonds are built through three key stages: assumption, vulnerability, and shared experience.
This game mirrors that exact arc.
It helps you challenge your assumptions, engage in authentic reflection, and then move toward fun, playful connection — the secret ingredient to long-term closeness.

By blending therapy-based prompts with game design, What Happens After Hello rewires the way we relate — turning conversation into chemistry.

What people say

Loved by thoughtful humans

We played it on a girls’ trip. Ended up crying, laughing, and trauma-bonding — in the best way. It was the most emotionally satisfying night we’ve had in ages. Friendship therapy, disguised as fun.d actually doable.

5/5

Finally, a game that’s not about winning — it’s about getting each other. Our group chat hasn’t stopped talking about it since. 10/10 for emotional hangovers.

5/5

I played it with my college bestie after years apart. Somehow, it made us feel sixteen again — only wiser, softer, and more honest.

5/5

I brought it to a team retreat. We went from awkward coworkers to actual humans. HR should hand this out with laptops.

5/5

It reminded me that I can still make new friends in my 30s. Assume, Reflect, Connect — and suddenly, you’re not strangers anymore.

5/5
Because great things rarely travel alone.

Behind the design

Why we build tools for feelings (not just vibes).

In therapy, we often hear a quiet truth: “I don’t know how to make friends anymore.” That sentence stayed with us. We realized that while romantic connection gets all the attention, friendship — the foundation of emotional resilience — is rarely spoken about, much less practiced intentionally. So we turned years of research on social bonding and emotional safety into something you can hold in your hands. What Happens After Hello was born from the idea that friendship deserves structure, curiosity, and joy. Each deck mirrors a stage of connection: the assumptions we bring, the reflections that heal, and the moments of laughter that sustain us. This isn’t a “therapy game.” It’s a mirror — one that helps you see yourself and others with warmth, humor, and honesty. Because every great friendship begins with a hello… but the magic happens after.
