Catalyst Cards: Conversation
Icebreaker & question game
Free · In‑App Purchases
Intelligent question deals, dealt for the room you're actually in. 50+ hand curated category decks for every moment. Plus a Messages app so the group chat can play too.
Catalyst Cards turns "so, how's it going?" into the kind of conversation you're still thinking about the next day.
Just a few taps and Catalyst deals you five questions built for the exact moment you're in: who's with you, how many of you there are, and the mood you're after. A first date. A long drive with friends. The family table. A work happy hour. Every hand feels written for the room you're actually in.
THE DEAL
Pick your people, your group size, and a tone, from easygoing to genuinely deep to light and playful. Catalyst Cards builds a five-card hand on the spot. No endless list to scroll. No filler. Just the right questions, in the right order, to get past small talk and into something real.
PLAY IN MESSAGES
Catalyst comes with an iMessage app, so the game can happen right in the group chat. Send the chat a question, everyone answers privately, then the group votes for the best one. Nothing is revealed until the round closes. Answering is free for everyone in the thread.
DECKS
Hand-curated packs for specific moments: date night, family holidays, parties, work mixers, and more. Every deck is written from scratch for that occasion, never recycled from one giant pile.
WHY PEOPLE LOVE IT
• Thousands of original questions, each written for one specific group and mood
• A group game that lives in your iMessage threads, not just in the room
• Tones that range from easygoing to genuinely deep
• Made for couples, friends, family, coworkers, parties, and first dates
