Our Mission

We believe in the power of meaningful conversations

Conversations that lead to moments of true connection, either with a friend or a stranger – that’s what we live for.

But those moments can be hard to come by.

So, we created a board game to help spark curiosity, that gives everyone an opportunity to explore and come away feeling more connected – to each other and to themselves…without it being cheesy or forced.

“I had no idea what I was getting myself into, but this is the best 'getting to know you' game I've ever played."

Katharine Henner, Writer and Producer

Founding Story

Cozy Juicy Real was born from a simple question: is it possible to reliably have amazing conversations that make people feel connected, seen and alive?

In 2016, the first prototype was made with printer paper and cut-out cards. We then spent three years researching, refining and play-testing the game.

But just as we were getting ready to launch the physical version, the pandemic hit and our plans were put on hold.

We never could have predicted what happened next…

As the world pivoted to becoming more remote, so did we.

We saw the growing need for connection in an isolated and quarantined world, so we built our game on a virtual platform, and saw our passion project bloom into a thriving online team-building business.

Since then, we’ve expanded from just the two of us co-founders, to a team of trained Cozy Juicy Real facilitators hosting games globally.

Now Available

In March 2023, we had a super successful Kickstarter campaign to produce the physical edition of Cozy Juicy Real. It’s now available to buy in our web store.

The game was revamped to create the most interesting, meaningful and connecting version we always dreamed it to be.

We hope that if enough people believe in our vision, then together we’ll make the world even more Cozy, Juicy and Real.
