Can the boss be something from our relationship?

That is the best version. The boss is any photo, so it can be the lawn, the dog, the sofa you argued about, or the place you met. Name it, and the taunts will use it.

Can the kids be the boss?

Yes. The boss is any photo, so it can be the kids, the dog, or the two of you. Fair warning: kids as the boss is the version that gets replayed the most.

What photo works best?

A clear head-and-shoulders shot on a plain background. Selfies are fine. Group photos are not, since we cut out one person.

Can I change it after publishing?

You can edit the lines and message from the same device you made it on. Sprites are fixed once published.

A Anniversary game starring your husband

An anniversary present for a husband is a boss fight against the shelf that took three weekends. His face on the hero, remote controls for weapons, and taunts from however many years of material you have. Priya vs The Lawn on this page is an anniversary game; play it to see the tone.

Write the win message like an anniversary card, because it is one. He cannot deflect it with a joke there. Give it at dinner and let him play it before the food arrives.

Example: Chris vs The Shelf, playing itself. Tap to take over. Yours has their face and your jokes.

Bosses that work for a husband

The Lawn · it grows back and so does his commentary
The Shelf · three weekends and it still leans
The Barbecue · the only appliance he is allowed to be proud of

Jokes that land

Three inside jokes become the taunts. For a husband, think the shelf that took three weekends, the sat-nav argument, or the one song he thinks he can sing. You can rewrite every line.

Free to make and play. $9.99 only when you send the link.

On the day

Give it at dinner, on your phone, and watch them play it across the table. Or leave the link as the last message before you go to sleep the night before. The win message is where the actual anniversary card goes: say the thing you would write in a card, and they read it after they have won.

The photo

A recent one, looking at the camera. Wedding photos are tempting, but the cut-out wants a plain background and a straight-on face.

Difficulty

Normal takes a few tries, which is the point. Easy if they are likely to give up after one loss.
