Known. The cards that gamify connection--building belonging one question at a time.


Known: deep questions,
deeper connections
The cards that gamify connection—building belonging one question at a time.
Known is a card game that helps people from different backgrounds connect on equal footing. Introverts and extroverts alike can benefit from the story-evoking prompts—forging deep connections through mutual vulnerability.
Known’s creator, Nia Darville Stokes-Hicks, is a connection enthusiast with deep expertise in inclusive communication, diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI), and human relations. Applying both her extensive experience designing and facilitating connection experiences and her MBA with an emphasis in Human Resources, Nia has crafted three phases of progressively deeper prompts that enrich connections in personal and professional settings.
