How to use this collection

Take turns choosing

Ask the active player to choose truth or dare, then read one item from that list. Let them answer or perform, offer a replacement if they pass, and move to the next person.

Make it fit your group

This collection is about adult-life experiences rather than explicit dares. Keep work stories anonymous and avoid sharing other people's private information.

Keep the game moving

The lists work aloud, copied into notes or printed. Open the game for fresh prompts. Local play is free within daily limits; some categories and custom generation require Premium. A Premium host can also create a Room that friends join free.

Questions, answered

Can a player skip a truth or dare?

Yes. Passing needs no explanation or penalty. Offer another prompt or move to the next player; never turn a skipped question into an obligation.

What is the difference between a truth and a dare?

A truth asks the active player to answer a question. A dare asks them to perform a short activity. Both choices are voluntary and can be adapted to the group.

Can I copy or print these prompts?

Yes. Copy either list with its button, or use Print this list for the whole collection. The questions remain readable without opening the game.

Can we play on separate phones?

Yes. A signed-in Premium host can create a private CardYard Room. Friends join free with the Room code and use their usual call for spoken answers or performances.
