Players are given the choice between answering a question truthfully, or performing a "dare". The game is particularly popular among adolescents and children.
History
The game has existed for hundreds of years, with at least one variant, "questions and commands", being attested as early as 1712:
Truth or dare may ultimately derive from command games such as the ancient Greek basilinda (in Greek: βασιλίνδα). This game is described by Julius Pollux: "in which we are told a king, elected by lot, commanded his comrades what they should perform".<ref name=strutt>Template:Cite web</ref> >
