Truth or Dare
Hand the phone round the circle and let the wheel do the choosing.
The wheel is the referee
Truth or dare stalls in the same place every time: somebody has to choose, and choosing means either looking cowardly or walking into something. Handing that to a wheel takes the social cost out of it.
It also stops the game being steered. When one person is picking the dares, the game becomes about them - who they are targeting, who they are going easy on. A spin nobody controls keeps it a game rather than a campaign.
Building a list that works
The default two slices are the starting point. The version that actually gets played is a wheel of specific dares and specific questions, written before anyone is put on the spot.
Writing them in advance is the whole trick. Dares invented in the moment escalate, because each one has to top the last; a list written in advance by the group sets its own ceiling.
Wheels worth building
- Party mix. Fifteen or twenty entries, half truths and half dares, written by whoever is playing. The wheel picks the challenge as well as the category.
- Family version. Same game, tamer list. Works with children if the wheel holds only what you already put there, which is why an editable list beats a random dare generator.
- Remove mode for a round. Take each entry off after it is used and the game moves through the whole list without repeating - a structured round rather than an open-ended one.
Keeping it fun rather than mean
Every group has a line, and truth or dare is a game that finds it. Two rules keep it on the right side, and neither is the wheel's job.
First, everybody gets a veto without penalty. A dare somebody refuses is not a forfeit; it is a dare that should not have been on the list. Second, write the list together. Anything anyone objects to comes off before the game starts, not during it.
The wheel makes both easier by putting the list in front of everyone beforehand. That is the actual advantage over a generator that produces surprises nobody agreed to.
Playing it remotely
Share the wheel and everybody has the same one open. On a video call one person can spin with their screen shared, or each player spins their own copy - the list travels with the link, so nobody has to retype it.
For streamers, fullscreen mode puts the wheel on its own with no interface around it, which is what you want on a capture source.

Questions
Truth or Dare Wheel FAQ
Can I add my own truths and dares?
Yes, and the game is better for it. Type or paste your own list and the wheel rebuilds as you go. Writing them in advance also stops dares escalating in the moment, which is how the game usually goes wrong.
How do I stop the same dare repeating?
Switch to Remove mode in Settings. Each entry comes off the wheel after it is drawn, so a round moves through the whole list without repeats.
Can I share the wheel with friends?
Yes. The share button copies a link with your list encoded in it, so everyone on a call can open the same wheel without retyping anything.
Is there a version for kids?
The wheel holds whatever you put on it, so a family-friendly game is a matter of writing a family-friendly list. Unlike a random dare generator, nothing appears that you did not add.
Can I use it while streaming?
Yes. Fullscreen mode shows the wheel alone with no surrounding interface, which suits a capture source or a shared screen.
