Yahoo Lifestyle 140 Fun Things to Ask if You're Playing the 21 Questions Game
If you've ever wanted to get to know someone a bit better but didn't know how to go about it, please allow us to introduce you to the 21 questions game.
The word "game" is used very loosely here, because it essentially just involves asking someone 21 very important (or not, lol) questions that will allow you to discover new things about them. For example, how long would they last in a zombie apocalypse? What gives them the ick? And what was their first impression of you? (Proceed with caution on that last one...)
To help you get started on your next game, we've rounded up 140 of the best things to ask someone while playing the 21 questions game, with suggestions based on whether you want to get deep, cheeky, or just keep things casual. Shall we get into it?
What is the 21 Questions Game?
The 21 questions game is exactly what it sounds like. There are no gimmicks or weird rules, you just have to ask someone 21 questions in a bid to get to know them better. Questions can be fun, flirty, silly...the works!
It's a great conversation starter for someone you're not close with, or equally fun as a way to deepen an existing relationship, with questions you would never usually ask.
How Do You Play the 21 Questions Game?
It's super simple to play 21 questions. You just need at least two people (although feel free to ponder the questions yourself!) and some appropriate questions for the setting. You probably don't want to be asking your grandma the same questions as your crush!
That being said, there are a few ways you can play 21 questions:
Classic, two people: If it's just two of you playing, it's usually fun to take turns, with one person asking a question and the other answering. The person who answered can then ask the next question, and so on and so forth until you've asked 21 questions in total. With this version, you can also both answer the same question before moving onto the next, or choose your own questions as you see fit.
Classic, group: If playing with more than two people, someone from the group will be selected at random, and then the group will ask that individual 21 questions in a row. The next person to go can be randomly selected again.
Ricochet: In a group setting, Person A must ask a question to any player in the group who becomes Person B. Once Person B has responded, they must then ask Person C a different question. Once they've answered, they'll ask Person D a new question. The game continues until everyone has answered a question. You then go around again until the group has answered 21 questions.
Round and round: Again, this is played in a group. Person A asks the group a question, and everyone in the group answers (usually in a circle formation) before moving onto the next question, until you get to 21 questions.
