10 Flirty Games To Play Over Text With Your Crush

Playing the classic “Would you rather” game can get as flirty or as funny as you wish. Try wild questions like “Would you rather have a huge hickey that lasts a year, or get a small tattoo of my name in a hidden place?” to stir things up.

Turning a round of “never have I ever” into a flirty (or even seductive) moment is simple. Your answers can range anywhere from “Never have I ever had pineapple on pizza” to “Never have I ever made out with someone in the back of an Uber,” so the level of flirtiness is up to you.

Playing 20 questions can be a great way to get to know your crush better, or grow a stronger connection to your partner. You can ask each other questions like “What is your favorite thing about me?” or “What is something we haven’t tried in bed that you’d like to?”

If you’re still getting to know your crush or the person you’re dating, a game of “this or that” can be a fun way to break the ice. You can use this format to figure out their preferences on everything from date ideas to their love language.

If you and your boo are comfortably goofy together, sending voice memos of you singing songs for the other to guess would be a great text game to play. You can get as easy or obscure as you want, and there will be plenty of laughter — regardless of your vocal prowess.

Everyone has played a few good games of “truth or dare” in their time, so taking it up a flirty notch is an easy task. Try playing before or during a date, where you can send flirty “dare” texts to them from across the table.

“Two truths and a lie” is a great way to playfully test out who knows each other better, or even to make the first move with your crush. You can make up your “lies,” and your “truth” could be “I think [your crush’s name] and I should grab a drink soon.”

This text game can be as quick or as ridiculous as you’re in the mood for, and is a fun way to bring up any inside jokes you and your partner may have. Simply pick a phrase or sentence and only use the first letter of each in a string together. See if your crush can guess what you’ve typed — the flirtier the better.

Remember those old Facebook “pick a number” question lists from high school? Try throwing it back to those days with your crush. Come up with (or simply Google) a numbered list of juicy questions and take turns picking a number for each other to answer.

If you and your boo want to get a little spicy (and if you both comfortably consent), try playing a round or two of strip trivia. This involves picking tricky trivia questions to send each other, and each time someone answers incorrectly, they have to take off one piece of clothing. Once one person gets to the agreed-upon level of undress, they have to send a selfie. Forget nudes on Snapchat — this is way more fun.
