At the end of the game each player will be committed to an end objective, these may be complementary, allowing you both to win together. Though it's quite possible that even then only one, or neither of you managed to reach your goal. As you get further into the game new objectives are added which can make the game competitive, though you don't know if your partner is going for these objectives or not! Amy’s Thoughts Don’t forget to take your and your partner’s destinies into account when you make challenging decisions. If you can’t deduct what destinies your co-player is trying to fulfill, you may be left broken-hearted in the end.Fog of Love proves to be the game for two players. Besides, it can help you with creating and playing two vivid characters. They’re the ones that meet, fall in love, and face challenges putting things together to make relationships work. Each scene prompts a typical situation – an argument at a restaurant maybe, or an attempt to make breakfast in bed – and is steered with a Mr & Mrs-style secret selection of the options available by each side before both parties reveal their choices and effects take hold based on their individual decision and whether they matched their partner or not. It’s simple yet far more impactful and fun than you might expect, thanks to the sharp writing on the cards and the inevitable outbursts of debate (after a disagreement) or joy (with a match). Changing a feature or an occupation will impact your personality tokens. Remove the token provided by the discarded card, and add a new one for the new card.
