Dive In

I really like this game! The Dive In deck has some great questions. The questions really allow you to go deep. These questions are perfect for a couple who's trying to get to know one another, or for anyone who might want to delve deeper. The dice are good ice breakers. This game is fairly easy to catch on to. My children and I enjoy it.

This is a fantastic "not really a game" type of game. It's more of a icebreaker or a tool for starting conversations. My wife and I played with it together and had fun. I didn't realize I didn't know her favorite book. Pretty cool. The box includes eight golf-ball sized wooden dice: a white starter dice, two yellow adjective dice, and five subject dice. All are six sided. You roll the white one first. If it lands on Dice in, you draw a card and discuss one of the two questions - these can be pretty deep, hence the name. Otherwise, the white dice will give you a question and a color. You roll the yellow dice and one matching the colored dot on the white one. The two topics on each card are divided into level 1, for all ages, and level 2, for 12+. Topics are things like "what is your perfect day," and "If you could change one thing about the world, what would you change." This would be an excellent game to play with two couples or a group of friends looking to get to know each other better. The questions arrived at on the dice won't make anyone uncomfortable, and don't include anything controversial. Favorite actor, that sort of thing. Overall, I highly recommend this is a fun conversation starter. This isn't likely to inspire any life-changing discussion, but it's well-made, and sure to get people talking which is a huge win.

The dice are significantly larger than I expected which makes them easier to keep track of. Everything fits perfectly within the box. We plan to put post it notes or a non harming tape over the dice to expand to different categories. Good ice breaker and conversation starter, would make a fun gift. After playing the game a few more times we noticed that the words painted on the dice are starting to come off. See photo. I think there could be improvement on the word paint so the game will last longer.

If you work with youth groups or really any group of people that you are hoping to get folks to start interacting (or break the ice) this is a super fun way to do so. The dice makes if feel like you all are at the mercy of the roll which provides grace as you answer the questions. Easy going questions that aren't too narrow so anyone of any age can answer without feeling embarrassed or put on the spot. Highly recommend this game. Would love larger sets with multiple dice for when we have large groups at events.

With three teenage daughters, and a 10-year-old daughter, we are in the thick of parenting challenging children. I love these games that promote discussion amongst family members, it’s a great way to bond and get to know your kids. I had thought this was a deck of questions, but in fact, it is a dice game. You roll the white dye first, and then follow the directions on the dice With the red and yellow dice. The product of this dice roll gives you a question that everybody in the group answers collectively. There are no winners and no competition really, it’s just a creative format to stimulate probing questions.

We got this game to play with our church friends when they come over and it's been fun! This game is a great way to get to know people that you don't know all that well, but it's also great for learning new things about family or friends you've known for years! The instructions are easy to follow, the dice are sturdy, and the cards are good quality. I love that this game helps you get to know others in a fun and easy way and can be played for any amount of time. We'll definitely be playing this game more often whenever we want to have some conversational fun!

I bought ThinkPsych Dive In as a gift for my 6-year-old nephew, and it has completely transformed how we spend time together. What started as a simple birthday present has officially turned into our absolute favorite weekly tradition: "Monday Night Dive Ins." Every single Monday evening, he begs to bring this game out, and it has given us the most incredible bonding moments.Why This Game is Worth Every Star:Brings Out Big Personalities: My nephew can sometimes be shy or give one-word answers when asked about his day. The clever combination of rolling the colorful topic dice and drawing cards makes him open up instantly. I’ve learned more about his imagination, dreams, and funny thoughts in the last month than in the whole past year!Perfectly Adapted for Young Kids: Created by psychologists, this game features two brilliant levels of play. The Level 1 prompts are absolutely perfect for a 6-year-old. The questions are highly engaging and fun without being too complex, though it also scales up for older kids so he won't outgrow it.Keeps Everyone Laughing: With over 400 unique conversation topics, the game never gets old or repetitive. One roll will have us sharing a deep, sweet thought, and the very next roll will have us bursting out laughing over something totally silly and unexpected.Sneaky Educational Value: As a Social-Emotional Learning (SEL) game, it effortlessly teaches active listening, empathy, and emotional expression. He doesn't even realize he's building crucial life skills because he's having too much fun rolling the giant dice.💡 Pro-Tip for Aunts, Uncles, & Parents:If you are looking for a gift that doesn't involve staring at an iPad or a TV screen, this is it. It creates an amazing, distraction-free space for actual connection. It's rare to find a game that a 6-year-old and an adult can genuinely enjoy together on equal footing, but ThinkPsych completely nailed it.The Final VerdictThis is easily the best thing I have bought all year. Watching my nephew look forward to "Monday Night Dive In" is priceless. If you want to give a gift that builds lasting memories rather than just sitting in a toy box, buy this game immediately!

Bought this for my counseling group and they love it. A great purchase.

Wasn't as good as I thought it would be.

Super good ice breaker activity!

Great conversation game to play with students. Helps them open up and find common ground to share.

Great therapy game! Love the questions and the quality of the dice. Nice for family time and the therapy setting.

Overpriced for what it is.

The kiddies absolutely love this game!

Great for individual sessions with adolescents

My nephew brought his girlfriend for a family vacation week. This was a great way to get to know each other!

I bought this game for my four children to play together, they are ages eight through 14 and they all very much enjoyed the game, it allowed them to get to know each other a little bit better as we are a blended family. This was a great game and easy to understand the instructions and rules.

Why did you pick this product vs others?: I use these in my high school social skills class. Great as a conversation starter and gets the students engaging and thinking with their partners and with the class.

Fun game with the kids

I use it with my students. It’s a great conversation starter.

Great for families!

Great fun for all ages! Simple to get set up, easy to play with anyone and perfect for getting some giggles in depending on the crowd playing! Comes in a sturdy box so it's portable stores easily. Lots of fun during family get together and good value for the constant ability to play anywhere, anytime with anyone.

very fun…, we’ve only practiced so far, but are looking forward to playing it with friends next week .

Really fun and great game to use in my therapy practice when I'm building rapport and learning about others, especially with my teens and kids. The directions are clear and overall it's straightforward how to use. I recommend this to anyone.

So far, good, my grandson likes to answer questions....so think he enjoys it

The product was purchased for counselors in a private counseling office. It is useful flexible to use with a wide variety of clients. However the product began to show wear after a couple weeks of use.

Good price, great product
