Would you rather

Would you rather is a pretty simple game - can be a great time-filler or icebreaker too. 

The basic idea is you ask a "Would you rather" question (see below for samples) and each person has to decide their answer. 

You can run the game in a few formats, depending on the time available and size of your group.

• You can have people go to one side of the room or the other  to indicate their 'answer'
• You can have them sit down or stand up
• Write the answers down
• Share the answers with the group (obviously better for smaller groups!)
