Six people near Melbourne, faces inside balloons. Press the pin into the ones that aren’t for you until you’re down to three or four.
Dealbreakers
The balloons turn solid neon with each person’s dealbreaker written on the front. Pop down to two or three.
The flip
Now they choose. Every survivor sees your profile and has 24 hours to stay in or pop themselves out.
Gold balloon
Pop down to one. The last balloon turns gold, their profile unlocks, and your chat opens with an icebreaker.
