A Journey to Deeper Connections

Welcome to the heart of Below The Surface, a game born from my simple yet profound desire to transform everyday conversations into avenues of deeper connection and understanding. I was inspired by the magic that unfolds when people move beyond surface-level interactions, sparking the creation of a game that has since touched lives across various contexts.

​

The Genesis of Below The Surface

It all started with a handful of handwritten questions, a camping bowl, and a group of friends around a campfire. The immediate shift in the depth and quality of conversations was a revelation. This experience, replicated across diverse groups from footy teams to corporate settings, confirmed the universal craving for meaningful interaction.

​

From Concept to Reality

Driven by the consistent positive feedback and transformative stories shared by those who played, with the help of my brother Mark, a talented graphic designer, turned this vision into reality. Below The Surface was meticulously crafted to facilitate engaging, insightful, and heartfelt discussions.

​

Below The Surface Mission

My mission is simple yet ambitious: to foster deeper connections among people, regardless of their relationship or setting. Below The Surface is more than just a game; it's a tool designed to unlock the potential for profound connection and understanding, making every interaction an opportunity to dive deeper.
