Zarf: Photo Themes for Friends

Zarf is a photo game for one small circle: your friend group.

Some days, a theme lands out of the blue. "The reddest thing near you." "A plant you keep alive." Everyone answers with one photo, sealed. At 22.00 the envelope opens and every answer lands at once, side by side.

Nobody sees anything before they answer, so every take is honest. Answer early and you can watch the spread grow as your friends' photos arrive. Skip a day and it costs you nothing. There are no streaks, no scores, and no shame.

Write your own themes and drop them in the box. They wait unseen until Zarf deals one as the day's surprise, with your name on it. Can't wait? Once a week, your group can make a theme today's theme on the spot.

React with small marks, leave a comment, and watch the opened days bind onto the shelf, month by month. A quiet archive of what your people actually saw, made, and laughed at.

No feed. No followers. No strangers. Just your group, one theme, and 22.00.
