Frequently asked questions

How do you play Would You Rather?

One person reads a question with two options, everyone picks a side at the same time, and the people in the minority have to defend their choice. Then the next player reads a question.

What makes a good Would You Rather question?

Both options should be equally tempting or equally terrible. If everyone picks the same side instantly, the question is too easy.

Is there a Would You Rather app?
