How to Play This or That

One person reads two options; everyone answers at once, out loud or by pointing left or right. Keep the pace high: the game works because people answer before they think. Stop only when the group splits in an unexpected way, and let the minority explain themselves.
For a bigger challenge, turn any pair into a full dilemma: “Would you rather…” and add a catch. Our would you rather questions are exactly that.

Tips for a Better Round

Use a timer. Two seconds per answer. Hesitation counts as a point for the other side.
Make it a guessing game. One person answers, everyone else predicts their pick first. Wrong guesses are the funniest part, especially about close friends.
Go deeper when it splits. If the room is 50/50, switch to the full version: our 150+ would you rather questions, or test how well friends know each other with how well do you know me questions.
