Step 1: Gather a group of friends

In order to play Two Truths, One Lie, you’ll need a minimum of three players. To make the game more fun and engaging, try to include as many friends as possible. The more people involved, the more challenging and entertaining it will be.

Step 2: Establish the rules

Ensure that everyone is aware of the game’s rules. Each participant will present three statements about themselves, two of which are true and one that is false. The objective for the other players is to correctly identify the lie while having a good time getting to know one another.

Step 3: Choose a player order

Decide on the order in which each participant will present their statements. You can choose randomly or use any preferred method, such as going in a circle or starting with the youngest player.

Step 4: Prepare your statements

Each player should think of their own set of three statements – two truths and one lie. It’s essential to keep the details hidden from everybody else until it’s your turn to share. Strive to make the truths as surprising and unexpected as possible while creating a believable lie to make it more challenging for others.

Step 5: Presenting your statements

When it’s your turn, clearly state your three statements without giving any indicators which ones are true or false. Be mindful of your body language and facial expressions as seasoned players might pick up on small cues that could give away your lie.

Step 6: Other players attempt to guess the lie

Once you’ve presented your statements, everyone else must try to figure out which one is false. Each person can take turns asking questions or making guesses about your statements in an effort to uncover the truth.

Step 7: Reveal the truth and rotate turns

After everyone has guessed or passed on guessing, reveal which statement was the lie. This often leads to surprising realizations and additional conversation as players explain and share stories related to their true statements. Once your turn has concluded, the next person in line will present their statements, and the game continues until everyone has had a turn or players wish to stop.

Playing Two Truths, One Lie is a great way to learn new quirks and traits about your friends and helps create connections between people that may otherwise take much more time to develop. By following these seven steps, you’ll be able to enjoy a fun icebreaker game with your group of friends or colleagues.
