About the Paranoia Questions
Paranoia is the party game where one player whispers a question to the person next to them, something like who here would survive the longest in a horror movie. That player answers out loud, saying only a name. Everyone else hears the answer but never the question, and that is where the paranoia comes from.
The classic rule decides the rest: the person named flips a coin. Heads, the question is read out to the room. Tails, it stays secret forever. Tap for a new question whenever a round ends.
Every question here is clean and friendly, so the game works at sleepovers, classrooms and family game nights without anyone regretting a turn.
How to use it
- Sit in a circle and tap for a question.
- Whisper it to the player on your left. They answer out loud with a name.
