275 Would You Rather Questions Great for Game Night

Looking for something a bit more unexpected than your standard Best Two Player Card Games? Nothing is more fun—or revealing—than a game of Would You Rather. It's a party favorite for good reason: Players must choose between two scenarios, from serious to silly, strange, and downright crazy, and then explain why they picked the one they did. Would You Rather is an epic icebreaker activity, and it's great for dates (maybe the second one!), holiday gatherings, or just a chill hangout with your besties. Plus it isn't a drinking card game, so it will suit most any players. It's not as revealing as Truth or Dare, but Would You Rather is a festive, free way to learn a little bit more about what your friends and family love, giving you a quick peek into their personal preferences and even values.

The key is to ask creative Would You Rather questions, like the 275 we've suggested below. Ideally, you want to encourage discussion, so consider using some deep queries that might cause a little soul-searching, like "Would you rather be obscenely wealthy and very unhealthy, or in perfect health and penniless?" But of course, not every question has to be so weighty. Leave plenty of room for head-scratchers that will get everyone giggling, such as "Would you rather know what your pets think of you or never hear them speak?" Check out our list below and jot down the ones you like best, then head to 50 Fun Things to Do With Friends for more entertaining endeavors you can do with your crew.
