This or that is a conversation-starter game that can be a great way to build rapport and strengthen bonds among team members.

This game can be used as an icebreaker at a team meeting, team builder, or corporate social event.

To play the game, one person asks the group a “this or that” question, and team members must choose which option they prefer. Here are 50+ “this or that” questions you may want to use during your next upcoming team builder.

We list these ideas into the following categories:
