Questions people ask

How do you play would you rather?

One person reads two options, and everyone decides which they'd choose. On Joke Plant you just tap a side. There's no scoring and no right answer, so the fun comes from defending your pick and hearing why your friends went the other way.

Where do the percentages come from?

Each percentage is the share of votes cast by people who answered that exact question on Joke Plant. Votes are anonymous. A brand-new question may show only a handful of votes at first, so the split can swing around until more people have played.

Is this would you rather game good for a party?

Yes. Party mode shows one question at a time in large text, so a whole room can read it from a TV or projector. Have people point to a side of the room or raise hands, then reveal how other players voted to settle the argument.

Are the questions family friendly?

Every question on the site is written to be clean. The adults set focuses on grown-up topics like money, jobs, and life choices rather than anything crude. If you're playing with young kids, the kids category is the safest place to start.
