The stag do group chat has 400 unread messages. Give it something to actually talk about: a game starring your boyfriend. Gifts for boyfriends are hard. He wants nothing, needs nothing and already bought the thing. Make him something he can’t buy: a game about him.
Our pick: arena battle with the Stag & Hen do theme. Your boyfriend dodges bouncers and exes, grabs pints and shots, and the game finishes with a dance party ending carrying your own message. Every line is pre-written and funny out of the box, and you can change any of it.
Idea 1
Chaotic, colourful and great for competitive types. Waves of baddies, then a boss who looks suspiciously familiar.

Idea 2
For when your boyfriend deserves a full hero’s journey: coins, power-ups and a boss fight.

Idea 3
Perfect for the group chat: easy to play, easy to share, impossible to stop.
Sample lines
Make him the hero and yourself the final reunion. Bonus points for casting his best mate as the boss.
Pick a game style and the Stag & Hen do theme in the app, play it free with demo characters, then upload a photo of your boyfriend to turn him into a cartoon character. Name the game, pick a link like yourname.become.games and send it. It takes about five minutes.
Up to six characters per game. Make one game per car, or several games with different casts. Making games is free once you have characters.
You choose the tone. Pick a silly ending like a dance party or a high five for something light, or a slow dance if you’re ready for the soppy stuff. Every line of text is editable.
Not very. We keep swearing to an absolute minimum (think “bloody”) and block anything genuinely offensive. Cheeky innuendo is allowed in 18+ cheeky mode when every character is an adult.
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.
Free to build and play. Turn your people into characters when you’re happy with it.
