The game originally launched as a purpose-driven card game to be played with friends or individually. The questions on each card are designed to dig deep into one's thoughts, helping people communicate thoughtfully with one another. The original game's release saw great success, prompting a followup including the Breakup Edition, Self-Reflection Kit, Relationship Expansion Pack, Honest Dating Expansion Pack and “WNRS x Red Table Talk Expansion Pack. Now, the card game has linked with [design house Valentino](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bottega-veneta-jenga), for a high-fashion yet equally thoughtful iteration of the experience. The new game features 25 cards designed to help people connect and embrace one another.
