Choosing the right would you rather list

Start with the people in the room. Coworkers need neutral topics, so the work list keeps things friendly and inclusive. Couples on a date night will get more from questions about plans, habits and memories. Teenagers at a sleepover usually want speed and silliness, while a quiet evening with a close friend suits the deep list, where each answer can lead to a longer story.

Next, think about energy. Funny and crazy questions lift a tired room fast because nobody has to think hard. Hard questions slow things down and invite debate, which works well once people are settled. You can move between moods in one session: open with something light, shift to tougher dilemmas, then finish with a laugh.

Finally, set simple house rules. Allow a pass, keep answers short when the group is large, and ask a follow up question when an answer surprises you. Those small habits turn a list of questions into a conversation people remember.

How to play

  1. One person reads a question out loud.
  2. Everyone picks an option and explains why.
  3. Take turns asking until everyone has had a go.

Frequently asked questions

What is a would you rather question?

It is a question that offers two options and asks you to choose one. Both options are usually equally good, equally bad or simply strange, so the fun comes from explaining your choice and hearing how differently everyone else thinks. Our funny would you rather questions are a great place to start.

How do you play would you rather?

Gather in a circle or on a call and choose someone to read first. That reader poses a dilemma, every player commits to a side, and each gives a quick reason. The role of reader then moves one seat along until the group wants to stop.
