Drinking games at parties. Card games for drunken company
- a great idea, especially if you are traveling together.
It won’t be boring, and you can discuss the prize for winning after you’ve drunk! (Hint: you can put it on your defeated friend and then play completely different games)
#1 Drinking Games: Beer Pong
Oooh... How proud will your girlfriend or boyfriend be of you if at the next party you become one of the top three in playing beer pong... Most likely she will not be proud at all, because it will be she or he who will have to lead your body home after several (ten?) missed glasses... And it’s a completely different matter if you and your other half lock yourself at home, having first bought your favorite beer, and decide once and for all which of you is the best. You won’t have to drag anyone home, you’ll be sick together in the morning, so... But the prize for winning can be discussed in advance...)
#2 Battleship
This classic board game can easily become alcoholic if for every ship you shoot down your opponent has to drink a shot. All you need for this game is paper, a pencil, six ships and any strong alcohol. Draw a 7x7 grid on a piece of paper, place your boats and start hitting enemy ships!
#3 Drunk games with bets
Playing cards and drinking strong drinks - what could be more natural? And more predictable... But, if instead of the usual libations and bets on money, you play for beer or vodka, the process will sparkle with completely new colors! Cards, dice, poker, blackjack - what's the difference? This drunken concept fits easily into any gambling game!
#4 Coins
If after buying strong drinks there is at least one coin left in your pocket (preferably two), then be sure to play this fun game with your drinking buddy. The gameplay will require certain skills and abilities from the participants, but, in principle, the meaning of the game is quite simple: you need to hit a coin on the table surface so that it lands straight in a glass. The one who smears drinks a glass of beer or a glass of something stronger. The one who can stay on his feet longer wins. Don't worry if you can't defeat your opponent the first time, because this game requires serious practice.
#5 Pinky McDrinky
You can’t figure it out without a bottle; you can’t say more precisely about the rules of this game. Therefore, excuse the pun, first carefully study the rules, and only then take out the corkscrew. This game uses one pink die and two white ones. Your task is to throw the pink one first, and then throw the white ones in turn. If the value of your die matches the value on the pink die, drink your opponent. If the points are equal, drink together. If all the dice match, the first one to grab the pink one wins.
#6 Red / Black
Red/Black is the simplest game to understand, requiring only two things: a deck of cards and beer. The first player draws a card from the deck, and the second must guess whether it is red or black. If the guesser answers correctly, then no one drinks. If he makes a mistake, he must drink it. Agree, with a 50/50 chance, getting drunk is not at all difficult. Every time a guesser gives the correct answer three times in a row, some new rule is introduced into the game - “players cannot look each other in the eyes,” for example. The one who breaks the rule drinks. You can play and introduce new rules until the players run out of strength, beer and the desire to drink it.
#7 Drinking games from childhood: “drunkard”
Playing “drunkard” and drinking is quite logical, you’ll agree. Therefore, it was decided to add “adult elements” to the classic card game, familiar to everyone since childhood. It must be admitted that there are minimal innovations: you should play like a regular “Drunkard” and drink whenever your card is smaller than your opponent’s card. We guarantee: after one round or two you will have a completely new understanding of the “children’s” game.
Cards are serious business. Some people have won a fortune playing cards. And some do the opposite. And if you remember how many people were shot in various parts of their bodies due to the unsuccessful outcome of the game, then in general - wow! So maybe there is no need to touch on such a dangerous topic?
Calm, just calm! Our cards are about something completely different. You and I will play the most frivolous card games in the world, intended exclusively for those groups who are determined to have fun and consume a certain amount of strong drinks. You already know about it, but today we’ll tell you about a few more ways to drink creatively, and not just stupidly clink glasses and thoughtlessly make toasts from familiar words.
Of course, we cannot tell you about all the “drunk” card games in the world. Let's dwell only on the most famous and entertaining ones.
King's Cup
This game is very popular among students in the USA, Canada, New Zealand, South Africa, Belgium and many other countries. Each subsequent company that organizes the King's Cup makes its own changes and additions to the rules. However, the overall picture and the course of the game remain recognizable. To join this wonderful game and teach it to your friends, you will need:
- Regular deck of cards
- Two or more players
- Alcoholic drinks (wine, beer, cocktails or something stronger - your choice)
- A glass, glass or goblet, actually, the King's Cup
Rules and course of the game
The deck of cards is shuffled and laid out around the royal goblet - a cup, glass, goblet, shot glass, or whatever you use to represent it. Lay out like this or more evenly if such an irregular “flower” bothers your aesthetic feelings:
The cards are laid out, the glass is filled, you can start. All participants take turns drawing one card. Each card has a meaning or instruction that players will have to follow. The lists of these instructions are the subject of creative rethinking; it is to them that different companies make their additions. By the way, some people use this game to find out more secrets about each other.
Approximate names and meanings of cards
Ace - WATERFALL
The person who drew this card must drink when someone else is drinking and can only stop when the person who is drinking has also put down their glass. This continues until the end of the circle.
2 - YOU
The one who draws the card indicates the one who must drink immediately.
3 - I
The one who drew the card drinks himself
4 - WHORES
All females drink
5 – BEER BITCH
The one who drew the card gets up and pours everyone a drink, that is, becomes a “beer bitch” until someone else draws a “five.”
6 - MEN
All males drink
7 - PARADISE
When this card is drawn, everyone must point to the sky. The last person to raise his finger drinks.
8 - MAT
The person who draws the card chooses a person who will drink with him throughout the game.
9 - RHYME
The person who draws the card must say a word, and the players in a circle must come up with rhymes for it. The first one who can't must drink. If a word is shouted out, but it does not rhyme according to the general opinion, then he should also drink.
10 - CATEGORY
The person who draws the card names a category, for example, “sports teams” or “green fruits,” and players in a circle name what falls under this category. The one who first couldn’t come up with his own version drinks.
Jack - NEW RULE
The drawer must come up with a new rule that all players will obey until someone else draws a jack, and the next “new rule” replaces the previous one.
Lady - MASTER OF QUESTION
The one who drew the card has the right to ask any questions, and when he asks, he must answer honestly. This continues until someone else draws a queen.
THE KING IS THE CREATOR OF THE RULES
The person who draws the card comes up with a new rule that the players follow for the rest of the game.
As already mentioned, this is far from the only list of rules and meanings; the game King's Cup has an infinite number of rules, and even real aces in this game, collecting different versions and variations of the rules, may in the next company encounter another option, the existence of which They didn't even suspect it before. So before you sit down to play the Cup, check the list of values in advance so as not to argue during the game itself and not spoil your impression of it.
About the joker
Some play with a joker, others without it - this decision is made by each individual company. The Joker is assigned a variety of meanings, here are some of them (by the way, this list may also be useful as examples of “new rules”)
Snake-Eyed- if the person who draws the card looks someone in the eye, he must drink
Don't swear- the one who uttered the swear word drinks.
Whisper- everyone should speak in a whisper; the one who speaks out loud drinks.
Don't name names- no one calls each other by name.
Repeat twice- everyone must repeat the last word of the sentence twice.
Foreigners- everyone must speak with the chosen accent (English, Georgian or any other, at the choice of the person who drew the card)
Everyone is drinking!- every time the person who drew the card drinks, everyone must drink with him.
The list can be continued almost indefinitely. Now you know the rules, in the future let your imagination help you.
Black or red
Perhaps this is the simplest of all “drunk” card games. It requires a regular deck of cards and at least one participant.
The deck is carefully shuffled and placed in the center of the table. Filled glasses/glasses/mugs, etc. are placed in front of all players. The first player reaches out to the deck and says “black” or “red” before removing the top card. If he guessed right, then the turn goes to the next player, but if not, then he takes his glass and drinks, but the turn still goes to the next player. Sometimes the rules are slightly modified, for example, the one who guessed correctly indicates whose move is next, or if the player did not guess correctly, then he must take as many sips as the number on the card.
The game continues until the deck runs out. Or indefinitely, then simply all the removed cards need to be periodically returned to the deck.
Indian poker
Another very simple “drunk”. No strategy, only one card plays.
What will you need?
A standard deck of cards and a sufficient amount of alcohol and cheerful company.
How to play?
- We choose a dealer - everyone draws one card, the one who draws the smallest one deals.
- The dealer shuffles the deck and deals one card to everyone.
- The players take their cards and, without looking, place them on their foreheads.
- Everyone looks at the cards of the others and thinks whether to pass or play this circle.
- The one with the highest card among those who did not pass wins.
Who drinks?
A player who remained in the game, but his card was not the highest
A player who folded a card, but his card turned out to be higher than the winner's card. That player must drink the "cost" of their card. For example, "10" drinks for 10 seconds, "jack" for eleven, and "ace" for 10 seconds!
It's very simple, but very fun!
Ass
Another exciting game for a group that doesn’t want to just stupidly drink beer. The same game is called “President” or some other word. But actually, this is the American version of the Japanese card game Dai Hin Min.
The players' task is to get rid of all the cards in their hands. Whoever ends up empty-handed first is the president, and whoever is last is an ass. To find out who's who, you'll need a deck of cards and plenty of booze. The Ass always deals the cards. For the first round, the identity of this person is revealed simply - everyone draws one card, and whoever has the smallest is the ass.
Progress of the game
- The player to the left of the dealer places a card (or a double if he has two of a kind) in the center of the table. The next player must play a card of equal or greater value. If he does not have such cards, then he misses his turn and, for this reason, must immediately drink.
- You cannot put a double on a single card, and you cannot put a single card on a double.
- The highest card is “two”, it is placed on the ace, and after that the Ass of this round is supposed to be removed from the center of the card, and the President is supposed to put a new card in the center. In the first round, the President by default is the player to the left of the Ass.
- If there are four cards of the same value in a row, then when the fourth is placed, everyone drinks.
Titles and rights
President- this is the one who got rid of cards first in the previous round. He has the right to appoint one rule, which will be observed by the players until the new president decides to cancel it (you can see examples of rules in the game King's Cup or come up with your own). In addition, he can order any player to drink, and he must obey.
Vice President- second place. In the last round, he laid out his cards immediately after the president. He can order anyone below him to drink.
Secretary of State- third from the beginning. Whether or not to introduce further titles and what rights and obligations to assign them is decided by each gaming company.
Ass is the last one with cards left in his hands. This is such a universal slave. He shuffles and deals the cards, fills the glasses, with or without asking, and removes the cards from the table when a deuce appears there. And the ass drinks when anyone orders him to.
Note. After each circle, players change seats. The President doesn't move, the ass sits to the right of the President, the Vice President sits to the left, and so on.
It happens that you pass out during a violent drinking session, and the next morning you wake up with the inscription on your forehead “Kolyanych is a fool” and a Hitler mustache drawn under your nose. The most offensive thing is that you drank alone yesterday... After such cases, one has to admit that libation in itself is a valuable activity in itself. And yet, since ancient times, humanity has tried to turn this generally simple process into something more. So, apparently, alcohol competitions appeared.
The first written mention of drunken games can be found already in Plato’s “Symposium”. The ancient Greek feaster had to fill the cup with wine, drain it, slam the bottom and pass the vessel to his neighbor. Since then, the registry of alcohol games has grown greatly, and the rules have become more complex. However, not to such an extent that a drunk person would not understand them.
Well, let's go?
Legend
A game of attention or intelligence
Game of luck Endurance game or dexterity Just fooling around |
Autumn speed Average High |
Variety Strong drinks Everything that has degrees |
01 Sea battle |
paper and two pens
.Divide into two teams and prepare a standard field for naval battle. Using fantasy (a fairly well-known free program that can be downloaded from any brain), set the rules for yourself. Agree on the number of ships; decide what the miss is (in grams or sips), how much the members of the team whose ship was sunk should drink, and so on. The game strategy itself does not differ from the classic non-alcoholic version.
02 This is a breakthrough! |
What you'll need besides snacks: napkin, coin, cigarette.
Cover the glass with a napkin and place a coin on it. Light a cigarette. Now the players take turns piercing the paper with the smoldering tip of the cigarette. The one whose coin finally breaks through the napkin and sinks to the bottom must drink a glass. So be it, he doesn’t have to swallow the coin.
03 Drug Lord |
What you'll need besides snacks: deck of cards
Leave as many cards from the deck as there are players at the table; you won’t need the rest. Dignity and suit do not matter, but you need to assign two main cards in advance. One (let's say an ace) will be a Drug Lord, the other (let's say a King) will become a Policeman.
Hand out the cards. The one who got the king is obliged to frankly admit this out loud. Now he is a Policeman, and he has to figure out the Drug Lord with an ace. The rest should remain silent for now. The drug lord, meanwhile, must quietly wink at one of the players, and he, in turn, must react by shouting: “I’m in!” Now it's the Policeman's turn. He must name the alleged Drug Lord. If he guesses correctly, the drug lord and the one to whom the underworld businessman winked (if there was such an agreement) drink the penalty. If the Policeman's accusation is wrong, he gets a penalty. Meanwhile, the Drug Lord winks at his new accomplice...
04 Cocktail “Tear of the Platypus” |
What you'll need besides snacks: coin
The first player pours as much as he wants into the glass and whatever he wants from any bottle on the table. The resulting mixture (even if it is only ten grams of vodka) is called the “Tear of the Platypus” cocktail. The player then flips the coin and, as it spins in the air, predicts whether it will land on heads or tails. If the guess is correct, the player passes the glass to the next participant. He also adds something to the glass according to his perverted taste and tosses a coin. The unfortunate person who couldn't guess which way the coin would fall drinks a cocktail. Then everything starts again.
05 Skillful hands |
What you'll need besides snacks: at least two more drinking buddies.
Sitting at the table, the players take each other's arms and place their palms on the table. As a result, everyone faces the left hand of the neighbor on the right, the right hand of the neighbor on the left, and Olivier (where would we be without it!). Now you can start playing. Someone shouts “Left!” (or “Right!”) and slams the table with his left palm. This is a signal to launch a “wave” of claps clockwise (or counterclockwise). Accordingly, the next clap, continuing the wave, should be made by the person sitting one to the left of the first, hitting the table with his right palm. Then the player sitting on the left next to the first must hit with his left, etc. Penalties are awarded for any errors that occur. He hit out of turn, missed the clap, smashed the TV with a stool...
06 Trained to drink |
What you'll need besides snacks: paper and pen.
Ideally, this game should start with the very first sip of beer that you and your friends order at the bar. But, on the other hand, in order not to spoil the pleasure of savoring the foamy drink, prudent people prefer to start the competition no earlier than the last couple of glasses before leaving. So, that's what a friendly match is all about. You need to drink beer in fewer sips. The loser gets to pay for the drinks and hold a grudge against the stupid game.
07 Fingering |
What you'll need besides snacks: saucer
A saucer (or, say, an empty glass) is placed in the center of the table, on which everyone present places a finger. On the count of three, everyone either removes or leaves their finger on the saucer. A penalty is given to that part of the drinking buddies (and sometimes it’s just one person, Igorek) that remains in the minority.
08 Torque |
What you'll need besides snacks: coin
Here's another simple game that will help you pass the time while waiting for the intoxication to arrive. The first player spins a coin on the table and calls the name of one of those sitting next to him. The person named must, without stopping the coin, flick it with his finger to give it additional rotational energy and call the name of the next player. If the coin stops or flies off the table, the culprit will receive a penalty. For more excitement, you can set additional rules. For example, if a coin that has stopped spinning comes up heads, then you are required to take two penalties.
09 Water all around |
What you'll need besides snacks:set of identical dishes.
Hitchcock would have loved this play, full of suspense. Players fill all glasses with water, except one, into which vodka is poured, and mix them thoroughly. Then everyone takes a glass (without raising it to their nose, so as not to smell the contents), and everyone drinks on command. If desired, you can increase the nervousness of the game by periodically increasing the number of glasses of vodka (or, conversely, completely eliminating them).
10 Hard Nut |
What you'll need besides snacks: salted peanuts.
Even if none of your friends likes salted nuts, still order them with beer. On command, simultaneously drop a nut into your glasses. If you don't get peanuts made from soy, the peanuts will immediately sink. But don’t rush to mourn them. Very soon, gas bubbles will stick around the peanuts and raise them to the surface. The loser whose nut pops up last must pay for the rest.
11 I have never... |
What you'll need besides snacks: Nothing .
Another game for a motley crew. This fun will help guests who are seeing each other for the first time to get to know each other better and not feel constrained, otherwise, you know, the whole swing party will be in vain. Anyone can start the game. He says the key words: “I have never...” and then adds something like “...saw the movie Heat.” After this confession, everyone who has seen this film (in our editorial office, by the way, there are still no such people) immediately drinks. Then the next guest takes the floor and says: “I have never… refused to drink.” After which, even inveterate teetotalers have to drink a penalty drink amid hooting.
12 Russian beer roulette |
What you'll need besides snacks:a lot of canned beer and a willingness to be nasty.
Before each round of drinking, one of the beer cans is thoroughly shaken (best done by a fellow epileptic) to turn it into a bomb. After shaking, the charged jar is mixed with the rest. Well, who do you think will get it?
13 Shooting Range |
What you'll need besides snacks: coin
On the table, stacks are placed in a circle according to the number of participants in the game and one stack in the center. Each pile is assigned to a specific player. A coin is placed on the edge of the table. The goal of the game is to flip a coin and get it into one of the piles. Details: If the coin thrower hits his pile, everyone drinks a penalty; if he misses, only he drinks; if it ends up in someone else's pile, the owner of the pile drinks; If it ends up in the central pile, everyone drinks. Well, except for Igorka. He has an ulcer.

Usually the game begins with innocent statements, and ends with each round of drinking buddies shouting to each other: “Come on?! Did you do this?!” If the goal of the game is to win, then you can count the points, as in the video.

Drink two shots when you see nudity on screen or Cersei makes a bitchy face. Drink three shots when someone is killed on the show or when they say winter is coming. The rules can be invented endlessly, and points for attentiveness are awarded to the one who quickly figures out how much to drink now because of what is happening in the film.
