About the game
Hey folks! Tired of the daily grind? Is your relationship getting a bit too... comfortable? Or maybe you're stuck at home with nothing to do? If so, the "Love on Lockdown" expansion for the acclaimed Fog of Love might be just the ticket! This gem throws you both into an unusual situation: months confined together, dealing with boredom, cabin fever, and, of course, the impact on your relationship. Get ready to manage more than just daily chores; here, the challenge is to keep your sanity and the relationship's sanity high.

"Love on Lockdown" adds an extra layer of drama and simulation to the Fog of Love experience. You'll navigate a story that unfolds and changes based on your choices, much like an interactive series. There are 8 new relationship destinies and over 45 brand-new Scene cards, all focused on life, love, and happiness (or unhappiness!) within four walls. It's an expansion that truly tests the limits of your bond, where cabin fever can either strengthen or destroy the romance. If you enjoy games that blend role-playing, decision-making, and a good dose of narrative, this expansion promises plenty of laughs and, perhaps, some serious conversations. Remember, it's a two-player game focused on your shared experience, so prepare to dive deep into the emotions and challenges of a relationship under pressure.
