This or That Questions for Friends + Printable Quiz
24 original two-choice questions across six categories, with an answer sheet and clear rules for an offline how well do you know me game.
Take the questions to your next hangout
These 24 prompts are an original selection from friendship-v1. Choose a creator, who privately marks A or B, then folds the answer sheet. Everyone else guesses the creator's choices, rather than picking their own favorites. Reveal together at the end. Skip anything that doesn't fit; count only questions both sides answered.

Matches: ____ / questions both answered: ____ × 100 = ____% (round to the nearest whole number). Equal scores share a rank.
Try asking: Which answer surprised you most, and why did you pick it? No one has to discuss anything they don't want to.
Three ways to make the game work
- Agree whose choices form the answer key. Sharing a preference and knowing what a friend would choose are different tasks.
- Swap unfamiliar activities or questions that don't fit. Don't turn a choice into a judgment about someone's personality.
- Print at least two copies: one private creator sheet and one per friend. Online quizzes have 30–150 questions, balanced across categories, with same-category swaps.
