Would you rather questions for any group

“Would you rather” is a simple game: you get two options, and you have to pick one. No “neither,” no “both.” This page gives you a fresh would you rather question with one tap, so you never run out of ideas. It is free, needs no account or app, and works in the browser on phones, tablets and computers.

There are four sets of questions: funny, deep, for kids and hard choices, with 155 questions in all. They are all family-friendly, so you can use them at home, in class or at work.

How it works

  • Read the question. Two options appear in two big boxes.
  • Pick one. Tap the option you choose. It is highlighted so everyone can see your pick.
  • Get the next one. Press Next (or the Space bar) for another question at random. Questions don't repeat until you have seen them all.
  • Change the category. The sentence “Questions: funny” lets you switch. Tap the category to choose funny, deep, for kids or hard choices.

How to play would you rather

The basic rule: someone reads the question, everyone picks, and then people explain why. The “why” is where the fun is. Here are a few ways to play:

  • In class. Put the page on the board in full screen. Students move to the left or right side of the room to show their pick, then a few volunteers explain their reasons. It works well as a warm-up or a speaking exercise.
  • On road trips. A passenger reads the questions out loud, and everyone in the car answers in turn. The kids set is a good fit for younger travelers.
  • At dinner. One question per course, or one per person. The deep set often starts real conversations.
  • Icebreakers at work. Start a meeting with one question from the funny set. It takes two minutes and helps people relax, without anyone having to share anything personal.
  • Sleepovers and parties. Take turns tapping Next, and whoever reads the question answers first.

Ways to keep it fun

  • Give everyone ten seconds to decide. Quick picks are funnier.
  • Try to guess what each person will pick before they answer.
  • Respect every answer. There are no wrong picks, only different ones.

Tips to write your own would you rather questions

  • Make both options equally tempting (or equally strange). If everyone picks the same side, the question is too easy.
  • Keep it short. One clear idea on each side is enough.
  • Use a twist. Take a fun idea and add a catch, like being able to fly but only one foot off the ground.
  • Know your group. Silly for kids, thoughtful for a dinner table, quick and light for coworkers.
  • Keep it kind. Avoid questions that make fun of anyone in the room.
