Kind Words 2 is Here!

But what is Kind Words 2?

It's a game about being nice to people!

All real people. Anonymous and asynchronous. Share your worries, joys, dreams, wishes, jokes and more. Then read everybody else's messages and respond where you feel comfortable doing so. We've made a little city full of different activities for you to explore.

It's a social network!

But it's kind of an anti-social network. We wanted to create a place where you can interact with real people and never have to worry about whether you're fitting in or winning. There's no numbers to tell you how many people liked something. There's no identities to worry about keeping consistent. Give and receive the gift of just being yourself with people.

It's a better version of the original Kind Words

It includes a full, backwards compatible remaster of Kind Words. If you didn't play the original, you won't miss out! The models and textures have been re-created with the wisdom granted by time. The UI is much more attractive AND accessible. Now there's keyboard and gamepad controls. Also, the whole thing works offline!

It's a much bigger game than Kind Words

Kind Words has a laser focus on you, stuck in your bedroom with worries and well wishes.

But Kind Words 2 lets you run outside that room and explore a city full of new activities! People brought so much of themselves to Kind Words that we couldn't embrace it all gracefully. Now there's so many more places for you to be you. Change your look, chat, joke, philosophize, dream, rhyme, vent, name cats. NAME CATS!

Its a labor of love by a tiny team!

I'm Ziba. I write the code and posts like this. Luigi does ALL the art. Clark writes the music (and his musician friends play it). That's it!

We've spent the last 5 years caring for the shockingly kind community that formed around Kind Words. And now we're almost unbearably excited to open the doors to this greatly expanded experience. We made if for you and we hope you like it.

Now please go tell your friends, neighbors, enemies, lovers, strangers and strange lovers that Kind Words 2 is here!

Yours,
Ziba & Luigi

Bug fixes!So there's this big wacky bug affecting almost every game ever published with Unity (CVE-2025-59489). That's why you may have noticed everybody scrambling to do updates. Me included! But I figured since upgrading to a new version of Unity requires me to spend a bunch of time re-testing everything, I should throw in a few improvements while I'm at it. Also, I love you and want you to have nice t…
