First impression

Six people near Berkeley, 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.
