Easy Drinking Games
Explain the rules in one sentence, start playing immediately. These games are easy to learn and perfect for any crowd.
Beer Pong
Teams throw ping pong balls across a table trying to land them in the opponent's cups. If a ball lands in a cup, the other team drinks it.
Truth or Dare
Choose truth to come clean, or pick a dare and get moving. If you chicken out, you're taking a drink.
Power Hour
One shot of beer per minute, sixty minutes straight. It sounds easy — until it doesn't.
Medusa
Everyone looks down, then up at someone else. Eye contact is fatal — scream 'Medusa!' and down a shot.
Never Have I Ever
Share things you've never done — those who have done it must drink.
Fingers
Everyone holds a finger over the cup and guesses how many will stay. Guess right to get out; the last one drinks.
Shot Roulette
Spin the bottle and pray. There are shots of water and booze in the circle – no one knows what they’ll get.
Two Truths and a Lie
Drop two truths and one lie about yourself. If they fall for it, they drink. If they catch you, you drink.
Drunk Twister
The classic game of Twister with shots on the mat — land on a color, take a drink, and try to stay up.
Thumper
Everyone has a unique hand sign. Drum on the table and pass the turn using others' signs. Mess up the rhythm? Drink!
Buffalo
Always drink with your non-dominant hand — if you get caught using the wrong one, you must chug your drink.
Drunk UNO
Classic UNO with a liquid penalty. Every action card, forgotten 'UNO', and leftover cards mean you drink.
Rage Cage
A high-speed race to bounce balls into cups. Be faster than the player to your right, or you're drinking.
Red or Black
Guess the color of the card before the dealer flips it. Right? The dealer drinks. Wrong? You drink.
Around the World
Hit the cups in a row one by one. You must go further than the person before you, or you drink. If you beat them, they drink.
Categories
Name something from a category without hesitating or repeating. If you fail, you drink.
Flip Cup
Two teams race down the line — drink your cup clean, then flip it upside down with one flick before the next teammate can go.
Most Likely To
Someone asks a 'Most likely to...' question and everyone points. Take a drink for every finger aimed at you.
Sip, Sip, Shot
Duck, Duck, Goose for adults — every tap is a sip, but a 'Shot' means a race for the center prize.
Fuzzy Duck
Pass 'Fuzzy Duck' around the circle. Use 'Does he?' to reverse the flow and swap the phrase. Mess up the words? Drink up.
Roxanne
Play the hit by The Police – one team drinks to 'Roxanne', the other to 'red light'. Three minutes of intense suffering.
Cheers to the Governor
Count to 21 together. Whoever reaches the goal makes up a new rule that everyone must follow.
Paranoia
Find out what they’re whispering about you. Stay in the dark, or take a shot to reveal the truth.
Pizza Box
Flip a coin onto a pizza box — land on blank space and trace a rule, land on a circle and follow it.
