1 Play time varies greatly depending on the number of players and their willingness to answer questions and perform dares. Often this game is played after a card game instead of bet or gambling.

Truth or Dare? is a party game requiring a minimum of two players. The game is very popular with adolescents and children, but is sometimes played by adults too.

[edit] Rules

Player one starts the game by asking player two: "Truth or Dare?" If player two chooses "truth," then player one poses a question, usually embarrassing, and player two must answer. If player two chooses "dare," then player one poses a task, also usually embarrassing, which player two must perform. After answering the question or performing the dare, player two takes player one's place, asks "Truth or Dare?" of another player, and the game proceeds as before.

If the queried player fails to complete their dare or answer their question, they are faced with an even more challenging dare or question. Some even play with cue cards, which have a labelled truth/dare on it.

A variant of the game entails a player posing a question to another player, who has the option to answer the question truthfully or decline. If they choose to decline, they must perform a dare also posed by the questioner and typically of an embarrassing nature.

Questions may be repeated or rephrased.

Players can also ask each other questions through methods of Spin the Bottle; where the bottle lands, a player is questioned.
