How to play would you rather
The rules are simple. One person asks a question that gives two different choices, like “Would you rather have the ability to fly or be invisible?” Everyone in the group has to pick one of the options, even if it’s hard to choose.
After everyone answers, you can talk about why you made your choice. This part of the game is fun because you learn more about how your friends think. Sometimes, the explanations can make others change their mind on their questions.
You can play this game with just one friend or a whole group. It doesn’t require any special tools, and you can play it in person, online, or even during a long car ride. If you want to mix things up, you can set a time limit for answers or stick to a theme, like school or food. There is no winner or loser, just fun! You can use one of our would you rather questions for teens or you can just come up with your own!
