How to play Two Truths and a Lie
Two real. One fake. Can you tell? The classic. Each player shares three statements about themselves — two completely true, one convincing lie. The group debates and votes on which one is the lie. You'll learn unexpected things.

How to play
- Each player thinks of two true facts about themselves and one believable lie.
- They share all three statements in any order.
- The group discusses and debates — then everyone votes simultaneously on the lie.
- Reveal the truth. Anyone who guessed correctly gets a point.
- Rotate until everyone has gone.
Example round
- 'I've met a president' / 'I've never broken a bone' / 'I was in a commercial as a kid'
- The lie: 'I've never broken a bone' — but the commercial seemed most suspicious.
- Best lies: things that sound slightly unbelievable but are plausible for that person.
Tips
- Make your lie the most boring-sounding one — it's harder to question.
- React the same way to all three when asked follow-up questions.
