Choose a fun game to smooth things up
Now, everything is pretty much planned, but there's still one more thing to do. Whether you stay at home, or you come back home at some point, you need something to crack that awkward post-dinner tension. And Fingle is just the game to do it. Imagine Twister, where, instead of your feet and hands, you only use your fingers, and that's Fingle. A pretty silly game, indeed, but the perfect option for this night. A couple of laughs, your fingers touch as you try to follow the crazy rules of Fingle, and there you go: your special Valentine's Day couldn't get any more magical. And it only took 5 apps, a bit of creativity, and a bit of luck, of course.
