Play it as a game for two
In Sync works like would you rather, but you both answer at once. A question appears with four answers to pick from, or you type your own. You each pick in secret, then reveal together. Matching answers score for the team, and you finish with a "% in sync" score.
It's free and takes about 10 minutes. Pick Together for a couple, Friends for a best friend, or We just met for someone new. For more quick picks, try our this or that questions.
