Would you rather questions give you two options and make you pick one. The fun is in the choosing, and even more in defending your answer once everyone else has picked the other side.
Below are 505 of them, sorted so you can jump straight to the kind you need: funny ones for a party, hard ones for a real debate, deep ones for a long drive, clean ones for kids and the classroom, icebreakers for work, and seasonal ones for Thanksgiving, Christmas and winter. Every question is written out in full, so you can read it aloud or paste it straight into a group chat.

How to play would you rather
You need two or more people and nothing else. One person reads a question, everyone picks an answer, and then each player explains their choice in a sentence or two. The explaining is where the laughs come from.
• No dodging: "both" and "neither" aren't allowed. You have to pick.
• Take turns asking: pass the question to the next person, or let whoever gave the funniest answer ask the next one.
• Keep score if you like: anyone in the minority gets a point, and the player with the most points at the end wins for being the most unpredictable.
• For a classroom: point to one side of the room for each answer and have students walk to their side.
• On a video call: drop the question in the chat and have everyone answer with a 1 or a 2 at the same time.
How to write your own would you rather questions
The best questions are hard to answer. A few rules make that easy to pull off:
• Balance the options. Both choices should be equally good or equally bad. If one side is obviously better, nobody argues.
• Be specific. "Fight 100 duck-sized horses" beats "fight lots of small animals".
• Know the room. Inside jokes, your group's favorite foods and your own town make questions land harder than anything generic.
• Add a cost. "Have unlimited money" is easy. "Have unlimited money but you can never leave your hometown" starts a debate.

Would you rather FAQ
What are some good would you rather questions?
Good would you rather questions make both options tempting, or both a little painful. Classics include "Would you rather be able to fly or be invisible?", "Would you rather have unlimited money or unlimited time?" and "Would you rather live in the past or the future?" Our 25 best list above is the place to start.
What is the hardest would you rather question?
There's no single answer, but the ones that stump people trade two things they care about, like "Would you rather lose all your memories or never be able to make new ones?" or "Would you rather know the truth and be sad or believe a lie and be happy?" The hard section has 40 more like that.
What are some funny would you rather questions?
Try "Would you rather fight one horse-sized duck or 100 duck-sized horses?", "Would you rather sneeze glitter or cough up bubbles?" or "Would you rather have a theme song that plays whenever you enter a room or a laugh track after everything you say?" There are 50 in the funny section.
What are good would you rather questions for kids?
Keep them simple, clean and a little magical: "Would you rather have a pet dragon or a pet unicorn?", "Would you rather live in a treehouse or a castle?" or "Would you rather have no homework forever or no chores forever?" The kids section has 40 more, and the students section has 25 for the classroom.
How do you play would you rather?
One person reads a question, everyone picks one of the two options, and each player explains why. Answers like "both" or "neither" don't count. You can keep score by giving a point to anyone in the minority.
Can you say both or neither in would you rather?
Not in the usual rules. The whole point is being forced to choose, so most groups make players pick one side even when they hate both.
Are would you rather questions good icebreakers?
Yes. They're quick, need no setup and tell you a lot about how people think without asking anything personal. The work section has 30 that are safe for meetings and new-hire introductions.
