“Who's most likely to end up in jail?”, “Who's most likely to become famous?”: the whole game fits in one question, and everyone points at the same person. It needs no equipment, works from three players and reveals in minutes how your friends really see you. Here are the rules, some variants and 100 ready-to-use questions.

The rules of “Who's most likely to”

  1. Players sit in a circle.
  2. Taking turns, a player reads a question that starts with “Who's most likely to…”.
  3. On the count of three, everyone points at the person who fits best.
  4. The player with the most fingers pointed at them scores a point, or has to explain themselves, depending on the version.
  5. Move on to the next player.

The best part comes after the vote: whoever was picked always wants to defend themselves, and everyone else wants to explain their choice.

The variants

With points

Every time a player gets the most votes, they score a point. After twenty questions, you find out who the group sees in every role.

Blind vote

Everyone writes their vote on a piece of paper, then all votes are revealed at once. Votes are more honest when nobody can copy the others.

The drinking version

The player with the most votes takes a sip. Keep the amounts reasonable, and remember that any sip can be swapped for a soft drink: nobody has to drink to play. This version is for adults only, and nobody drives after drinking.

Right of reply

The player who was picked has ten seconds to convince the group they were picked by mistake. If they succeed, the vote is held again.

Mistakes to avoid

  • Always picking the same person: if one player gets picked every time, change the theme.
  • Hurtful questions: the game should make people laugh, not uncomfortable. Avoid looks, money and sensitive topics.
  • Questions that are too vague: “Who's most likely to be nice?” gets no reaction. Precise, slightly absurd questions work best.

Frequently asked questions

How do you play Most likely to?

One player reads a question, then everyone points at the same time at the person who fits best. The one picked most defends themselves… or owns it, and someone else asks the next question.

How many players do you need?

From four players, so that the votes can split, with no upper limit: with twenty people, the debates after each vote are even funnier.

How do you keep anyone from feeling targeted?

Pick funny questions rather than hurtful ones, and give the chosen player the right to reply. Keep the spicier questions for groups who know each other well.
