Questions and answers
Are these would you rather questions fall themed only, or is Halloween mixed in?
Fall only. No card has a costume, a trick-or-treater, a carved pumpkin face or a turkey dinner in it, so the deck works from the first week of school to the last leaf. For those nights, deal the Halloween deck or the Thanksgiving deck.
Can I print the fall questions?
All 150 are printed under the deck in seven topic groups, and the list stays open, so your browser's Print picks up every question. This or that and October filter the deck only, so a printout always has the whole set.
Which months count as fall?
Meteorologists count September, October and November as autumn in the Northern Hemisphere. In the United States, Labor Day, the first Monday in September, is often treated as the informal end of summer. Both notes sit in the list under the deck.

How this list was compiled: Own work: 150 two-option questions written for this page by the Game Night Generator editors, about leaves, orchards, back to school, sweaters, corn mazes, football season and fall baking. Screened on 2026-09-18 against the site's party blocklist: no dares, no real people, no put-downs, no brand names. The deck is fall only: no costumes, trick-or-treating or jack-o'-lantern carving (the Halloween deck) and no turkey dinner (the Thanksgiving deck). Tags: This or that marks 76 short pairs whose options are four words or fewer, and October marks 38 cards about peak color, pumpkin patches, corn mazes and hayrides. Level is an editor's judgment: easy is a quick pick, hard is a card where both options cost something. Eight detail lines were checked on 2026-09-18 against https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autumn (meteorological autumn is September to November in the Northern Hemisphere; fall is a 16th-century shortening of fall of the leaf; Labor Day as the informal end of summer; American football played almost exclusively in the autumn months), https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autumn_leaf_color (carotenoids present all year and masked by chlorophyll, anthocyanins produced toward the end of summer; best color after bright cool days and chilly nights above freezing; leaf peeping from about September to November) and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corn_maze (a typical maze covers 2 to 9 acres and can be cut when the corn is about 12 inches tall; called a maize maze in the United Kingdom). Detail lines print only in the list under the deck, never after a vote. No card is shared with any other deck on the site. Licence: own work
