SHABLON is a game with the right questions to reveal people in a new light and help you rediscover each other. It breaks patterns and changes how we communicate.
SHABLON is a card game built around honest dialogue. It helps you move beyond routine conversations, discover people from a new angle, grow closer, and bring hidden truths into the open. Warmth, kindness, and stories — along with quick thinking, quiet dreams, and a deep dive into the past.
The game cultivates sincerity, and you complete it with your own experience.
When was the last time you talked with others about your dreams, your worries, or the brightest moments of your life?
This game brings your stories from the space of thoughts into the space of words. There are no right answers here — only your real thoughts and feelings.
Each card can unlock hundreds of stories you can relive again and again.

EXPANSIONS FOR DIFFERENT CONTEXTS:
In addition to the three core parts, the game includes special packs:
For couples — questions about intimacy, desires, and your future together
For family — intergenerational dialogue and shared history
For friends — openness, support, and honest conversations
THREE PARTS OF THE GAME — THREE LEVELS OF CLOSENESS:
PART 1: PRESENT
The first part breaks familiar communication scripts. It goes where real thoughts, fears, and desires live.
It’s about who you are right now — not the image you maintain, but the person behind social masks.
Only questions that reveal you from unexpected angles. Thoughts that usually remain unspoken.
What you’ll feel: curiosity, surprise, and engagement.
The conversation leaves a deep aftertaste — you’ll keep thinking about it long after the game ends.
Relationships grow stronger because you get to see each other again, with fresh eyes.
Best for: big groups, couples, friends, colleagues — anyone ready to go beyond small talk.
PART 2: PAST
A dialogue with the past — childhood, youth, family history. A return to yourself at the beginning of your path.
To the moments that shaped you. To the people who were there and influenced your life.
This part is designed for conversation with loved ones — grandparents, siblings, mothers, and fathers.
It is lyrical and gentle. It evokes a shared memory box filled with stories, scents, and sounds of childhood.
What you’ll feel: warmth, nostalgia, and connection.
You’ll hear stories you have never told each other before.
You’ll see your loved ones as they were before they became your parents, siblings, or partners.
Best for: family gatherings, intergenerational conversations, and reunions.
PART 3: FUTURE
The most uncomfortable questions about adult life, relationships, and choice.
A meeting with your adult self — with honest questions and real concerns.
With the reality of relationships, breakups, decisions, and loss.
Here the game goes deeper and asks very uncomfortable questions — the ones we usually avoid, yet wish we could say out loud.
The ones that require courage and a willingness to be vulnerable.
What you’ll feel: honesty, closeness, and sometimes discomfort.
But this discomfort is exactly where real connection is born.
Here you’ll find your points of support — understand who you are now, what you want, and what truly matters to you.
Best for: couples, close friends, and anyone ready for an honest conversation about life.
Each question is designed to раскрыть a person, create space for honesty, and help you go beyond habitual phrases.
We believe honest dialogue changes relationships.
And that closeness is born not in comfort, but in the willingness to be vulnerable.
Break patterns. Don’t build them.
