Rishta: Aunties Know Best

Start here

Run your own session

The game is free for print and play. You can run it yourself! Check out the FAQs for any questions on how to cut, prep and serve. (So domestic. So modern.)

We’d love to hear how you’ve organized your own game night with family or found family. Video in particular is super welcome.

Please email us at playrishta@gmail.com or tag us on insta at @playrishta.

Have us run a session

If you’re based in New York or New Jersey, our team (Sana + friends) can run a game event at your chai cafe, community center, prayer hall, wedding, bachelorette, batmitzvah, reunion, holiday, etc. We will bring the three not print-and-play copies in existence which accommodate up to 30 players at a time. (That Sana personally handcrafted. This is as farm to table as it gets.)

Our values are very community-forward. What this means is it’s pay-as-you-can-if-you-want. If you want to support our growing business and kickstarter, great. If you want to donate to a women’s non-profit in our name, even better. If you want to set aside a portion of funds that allow people a pay-as-you-wish night of your products / services in conjunction with our game, the best!

All we ask as a must is that you document content and tag and follow us at @playrishta on insta.

Please email us at playrishta@gmail.com or DM us on insta at @playrishta to get the tea going.
