What is Truth or Dare Generator?
The Truth or Dare Generator randomly selects from a curated pool of 50 truth questions and 50 dare challenges. Each selection uses a Fisher-Yates shuffle algorithm to ensure no prompt repeats until the entire pool has been exhausted, at which point the deck reshuffles automatically. The truth questions range from lighthearted embarrassments to deeper personal revelations, while the dares span physical challenges, creative performances, and social interactions — all designed to be family-friendly for players ages 12 and up. A built-in history panel tracks the last 20 selections so you can revisit the funniest moments, and the reset button reshuffles both decks for a fresh game.

Example
A truth prompt might ask: "What is the most embarrassing thing you've ever done in public?" A dare prompt might say: "Do your best impression of a celebrity for 30 seconds." Each prompt is drawn randomly from the pool.
Interpreting Your Results
The generator uses a Fisher-Yates shuffle to randomize prompt order, which produces a uniformly random permutation — meaning every ordering of the 50 prompts is equally likely. The shuffle runs independently for truths and dares, so the order of truth prompts has no influence on the order of dare prompts. When you exhaust all 50 prompts in a category, the deck reshuffles automatically, which means the game can continue indefinitely without manual intervention. The history panel stores selections in reverse chronological order and caps at 20 entries, so older selections scroll off as new ones appear. The reset button triggers a fresh shuffle of both decks and resets the selection counter to zero, effectively restarting the game.
