It’s a fun game that helps you get to know your friends and family better than you might want to! When it comes to fun games, this one is easy to start and hard to beat. All it takes is at least two people to play the questions game — but the more, the merrier.
How to Play This Questions Game With a Group
Sometimes known as a drinking game, you don’t have to drink alcohol to play — especially if you’re playing it with underage kids. You can substitute with a non-alcoholic beverage, or come up with your own silly consequence. Here’s what I mean: Everyone sits in a circle, and each participant takes turns making a statement that begins with the words, “Never have I ever…” and finishes with something he or she has never done. For example, “Never have I ever made a prank phone call.” Any of the other players who have done that thing have to take a drink or take some other action that reveals that they have done it. Here are some ideas for consequences:
Stand up and spin around three times.Lose a point (start with 10 points and leave the game when you lose 10).Put on an item of clothing from a pile in the center of the circle.Squawk like a chicken.
Whatever way you decide to play the game, it helps to have a ready supply of good Never Have I Ever questions. Once the silliness begins, it gets harder to think clearly enough to come up with your own. Keep the following list of questions handy the next time you and your friends want to have a little fun. The game is over when you run out of questions, everyone loses their 10 points, or when most of the players agree to stop.
