40 spectrum game prompts for couples
Somewhere between “hard pass” and “sign me up” is exactly how your partner feels about karaoke. Spectrum Guess is about finding that spot.
How to play
- One of you reads a prompt and secretly picks a number from 0 to 100 for where you land between the two ends.
- Your partner guesses the number out loud.
- Reveal it and see how close the guess was. Then swap. There’s no right answer, and nothing to score but bragging rights.
