Best Practices for Spyfall Questions
Expert tips and techniques for getting the most out of these questions.
Best Practices
Start Broad, Then Narrow Down
Begin with general questions about the location, then get more specific as you gather information. This helps you build a picture without being too obvious.
Listen for Inconsistencies
Pay attention to answers that don't match the location or seem forced. The spy will struggle to give consistent answers about a place they don't know.
Use Follow-up Questions
Ask follow-up questions to dig deeper into their answers. This can reveal whether they truly know the location or are making things up.

Common Pitfalls
Don't Ask Too Obvious Questions
Avoid questions that directly reveal the location. The spy will catch on quickly and the game will be over.
Don't Ignore Inconsistencies
If someone gives conflicting answers, follow up on it. This is often a sign that they're the spy.
Don't Rush Your Questions
Take time to think about what information you need. Rushed questions often give away too much about the location.
