    02

    Birthday Birds, made from your memories

    They are the bird, with their own face, in a slingshot. First they knock down a tower shaped like their age. Then every balloon carries something off the list you wrote of things this birthday knocks over ("Grey hairs", "Being called sir"), each hit crosses it off, and you answer on a note when the last one goes. It ends with their cake, candles to blow out, and the presents you packed.

  3. 03

    A keepsake to come back to

    Every photo and every word you added, shown large, on a page that is theirs to reopen.

Open a sample gift and see all three

How it plays

A few minutes they will not forget.

About 4–5 minutes

  1. Pull back, aim and let go: you are the bird, and your age is the first tower to fall.

  2. Hit every balloon and crate that carries something from the list to cross it off.

  3. Blow out the candles, then open up to four presents: words, photos or a voice note.

Pull back anywhere, aim and let go. On an upright phone the game turns itself sideways.

Nobody can lose. The game helps anyone who gets stuck, so they always reach what you wrote.

Good to know

Do they need to install anything?
No. The gift opens in the browser on any phone or computer.
What if they are not good at games?
This one helps a player who gets stuck, and nobody can lose. They always reach what you wrote.
Can I see it before I send it?
Yes. You play the finished game and see the keepsake before the link exists.
When do I add my photos and words?
Right after you pay. The link is only created when you are happy with the gift.
What if I spot a mistake after sending it?
Change it. The words, the photos and the options can all be changed afterwards, and the link stays the same.
How long does the gift stay online?
At least a year from the day you create the link.
Who can see our photos?
Only people who have the link. Your photos and words are used for this gift and nothing else, and you can delete the whole gift from your account at any time.
Can I get my money back?
No. A gift is made for one person from the moment you pay, so a sale is final. That is why you can open a full sample before you buy, see your own finished gift before the link exists, and still change it after you have sent it.
