The Inner circle

Hey PH 👋 Super grateful to be here and share my first launch — The Inner Circle. It’s a game, yeah. But honestly, for me, it’s more like a gateway. A tool to go beyond the surface and actually connect with people. To drop the small talk and get to the real stuff. So why did I make it? I’ve been away from home for most of my life. Born in Pakistan, spent my 20s bouncing between places — Malaysia, Bali, and now the US. And throughout that time, one thing stayed hard: making real friends. I’ve always struggled with that, especially growing up. But over time, I learned that it’s not about fitting in — it’s about being vulnerable. In Bali, I started seeing how different everything felt when I just opened up. When people asked better questions. When we stopped pretending. That’s when the idea for this came together — to turn deep conversations into something simple, light, and even fun. Now that I’m back in the US, meeting new people again, this game has been helping me reconnect — not just with others, but also with myself. Every time I play it, I discover something new. It’s wild. If you’ve ever felt like you’re surrounded by people but still feel kinda lonely… or like you’re craving deeper friendships — I hope this helps you spark that. Would love to hear what you think. And if you end up playing it — please tell me how it went. I’m here for all the stories. Much love, Ali
