What Are Cornering Questions?
Cornering Questions is an absurd scenario game you play in turns with your partner. From the zombie apocalypse and a desert island to alien abductions and "if I gave you my phone for an hour", the 30-question deck makes you both laugh — and sweat a little — while you answer.
Each player has 3 passes. You can skip a question you don't want to answer, but it comes at a price: you draw a penalty card, from showing the worst photo in your gallery to doing an impression of your partner.
Sample Questions
- If I lost my memory, which embarrassing moment of ours would you tell me to prove we're really "us"?
- If I left you alone with my unlocked phone for an hour, which app would you dive into first?
- If a zombie bit me on doomsday, would you stop me without blinking or join me?
- If I said "there's something I haven't told you" and went quiet, what's the first disaster you'd imagine?
- If we were stranded on a desert island, who would panic on day one and who would build the hut?
- If one of our ordinary fights aired as a TV scene, whose side would social media take?
...and 30 questions in total. Each game deals 12 at random!
