A Day of the Dead game starring your wife

Marigolds, sugar skulls and a skeleton mariachi band that just won’t stop: it’s a celebration, and your wife is the guest of honour. Want to win “best present” for once? Turn your wife into a cartoon superstar and send her a game she’ll show the whole group chat.

Our pick: story climber with the Day of the Dead theme. Your wife dodges skeleton mariachis, grabs marigolds and sugar skulls, and the game finishes with a slow dance ending carrying your own message. Every line is pre-written and funny out of the box, and you can change any of it.

Idea 3

Mrs Right’s Big Adventure

Ending
Dance party
Win level
50 coins

Proper retro adventure energy, with your wife stomping baddies on the way to the boss.

Sample lines

  • “Fell in a pit. Again. The pit is starting to recognise Mrs Right.”
  • “The mariachi band has entered the chat. Loudly.”

Who’s who

Cast her as the hero, put yourself at the finish line, and let the kids or pets appear as cheering cameos.

Tips for the perfect Day of the Dead game

  • The dance-party ending was made for this: everyone, living or skeleton, on the dance floor.
  • Write the ending message yourself. A soppy line at the end of a silly game lands twice as hard.
  • Keep the jokes warm. It’s a celebration, not a fright night.

Day of the Dead game for your wife: FAQ

How do I make a Day of the Dead game for my wife?

Pick a game style and the Day of the Dead theme in the app, play it free with demo characters, then upload a photo of your wife to turn her into a cartoon character. Name the game, pick a link like yourname.become.games and send it. It takes about five minutes.

Is the Day of the Dead theme respectful?

We designed it as a bright celebration: marigolds, sugar skulls, music and dancing, with no horror. You control every line of text, so you can make it as heartfelt as you like.

Will my wife be able to tell it’s her?

That’s the whole point. We draw her from your photo as a cartoon, and every drawing is checked automatically and redrawn for free if it doesn’t come out right. If you’re still not happy, you can ask for a full re-do.

Can I add memories of family members?

Yes. The story climber lets you add milestones with a year and a caption, and (coming soon) optional cartoon memory scenes made from photos you have permission to use.

How much does it cost?

Making, playing and publishing games is free. To turn your own photos into characters you need a plan: £3.49 a month (2 characters in month one) or £19.99 a year (10 characters up front). Plans also unlock custom game links. Cancel any time.
