250 Truth or Dare Questions - Parade Skip to main content

Truth or Dare. It's one of the all-time classic party games—and a great way to get to know your friends better in 2024. The premise is simple: Players take turns asking one another "truth or dare?" If they choose truth, they have to answer a question of the asker's choosing. If they choose dare, the asker dares them to do something rather than make a confession.

Good truth-or-dare questions are thought-provoking, and some can elicit just as much of an adrenaline rush as doing a dare. The key to a good question? Make it something that will catch the player somewhat off-guard and ask something the rest of the players would be generally interested in learning. You can have funny truth-or-dare questions, philosophical questions or stick with the scandalous stuff you can all gossip about later. The key is to have fun with it!

If you don't know your fellow players well enough to ask something super-specific about them or their lives, we've compiled a hefty list of the 250 best truth-or-dare questions and dares that will get everyone talking (and sometimes blushing, laughing or cringing) at your next party, even if it's a virtual one. We dare you not to ask these.
