How do you play This or That as a drinking game?

Someone reads two options. On three, everyone points left for the first or right for the second. The smaller side drinks; on a tie, everyone drinks. Let one person from the losing side argue for ten seconds; anyone who switches sides drinks too.

What is the difference between This or That and Would You Rather?

This or That is quicker and lighter: two short options, an instant pick, no explaining. Would You Rather usually has longer, more extreme scenarios that start arguments.

What are good this or that questions for adults?

Ones about real life choices people actually disagree on: city or countryside, early nights or late nights, text or call. They are quick to answer and reveal more than they seem to.

Is This or That good for couples?

Yes. Answer at the same time and see how often you match. In the drinking version, both drink when you pick differently.

How to play This or That as a drinking game

One person reads the two options.
On three, everyone points: left hand for the first option, right hand for the second.
The smaller side drinks. A tie means everyone drinks.
Optional: one person from the losing side gets ten seconds to argue. Anyone they convince to switch drinks for changing their mind.

It works for any group size, because everyone answers at once. For two players or a couple, play it as a matching game instead: both answer at the same time, and you both drink when you pick differently.

This or that, with the drinks handled

Wrecked’s free Debate mode is built on this kind of question: this-or-that cards, showdowns and debates, each with its drinking rule on the card. A few of them are on our would you rather questions page; in the app, the host reads the card, everyone picks, and the app counts who drinks.

Keep the arguments going

If your group loves arguing, step up to would you rather questions, which come with longer, more extreme choices. For secret questions instead of public ones, try Paranoia. Both work in big groups because everyone answers at once.

Fast games mean fast drinks. Use sips, keep water on the table, and let anyone sit a round out. More on our responsible drinking page.
