Bloody Hell- Dice Game

This is an easy dice drinking game without cards. You will only need 1 die. Roll the die. The first person must match that number, by rolling the exact number, or rolling two or three numbers that add up to that.

Each person gets up to three rolls. If they don’t make it they have to drink. Then the turn moves to the left, that person must match the last number rolled, and so on. This is an easy but fun drinking game.

Taboo

At the beginning of the party hand everyone an index card with a somewhat common word ,phrase, or action. It should be something that is bound to be said or done at least a couple of times, but not one that will be said every other sentence, or done too often. Everyone gets a different word , phrase or action. Every time they hear someone say their word or phrase, or see someone do their action, they can call out “taboo” and that person has to drink. Here are some fun examples:

  • actions: look in the mirror, cross their arms, touch their hair, frown
  • words: beer, party, bed, work, job, actually
  • phrases: I don’t know, I wish, I can’t believe,


This is a fun drinking game that can be played the entire party while everyone is mingling and having fun. If you have other drinking games this can even be played while playing those… its ongoing.

'I drink and I know things'

I love Tyrion Lannister, he drinks, and well...he knows things. He was also the inspiration for this game! 'I Drink and I Know Things' challenges your friends to a game of random knowledge and shots.  The more you know, the more you can make your friends drink.  Don't get too confidant though, a rule card could come along and change the whole game.  Include fun rules such as ' I drink and I NOSE things', when this card is played all players must quickly touch their nose, last one to do it must pay the consequence.

Top Card

This is one of my favorite fun drinking games. Everyone gets dealt 8 cards; you play with as many decks as you have to. Put the rest of the cards in the center.  

First card is flipped up from the center.

The first player must lay down cards from their hand that match the numerical value of that card. They can use as many cards as they need to match it. For example if the card is a 9, they can lay down a 5 and a 4, or they can lay down a 4, a 3, and a 2. They could also just lay down a 9. They can place the cards on the top of the deck however they want, thus determining the next top card 

  • If they cannot match it then they must drink, and pick up two more cards out of the deck.

    • The next player must match the new top card, if he/she can do this using less card then the person before him/her they can also make one other player of their choosing drink, and another player take two more cards.

     The object of the game is to get rid of all your cards first, but the fun is you also get rewarded (by making others drink) for using as few of your cards as possible.

    Winner can doll out three drinks, they can do this all to one person or split it up.

    Card Value all numerical cards are worth their number. Aces are worth 1. Jacks are worth 11, Queens are worth 12, and Kings are Wild!

    Bite the Bag

       This is a hilariously funny drinking game to watch. Place a brown paper bag on the floor. A player must reach down and pick it up with their mouth. The only thing that is allowed to touch the floor is your feet, and the only thing that is allowed to touch the bag is your mouth. If someone fails they must take a shot or chug a beer. After every round, cut off an inch from the top of the bag and play again. This game is like limbo in reverse. How low can you go?

    Go Fish

    Everyone gets 5 cards. The rest of the cards are spread out in the middle of the table. You can play with multiple decks if you need to. First player goes fishing (picks a card out of the deck) and flips it up.

    Everyone must quickly lay down a card equal or higher to that card. If they can’t they may pick up one card out of the fish pond. If they can play this card they must, if not they have to drink. The last person that either drinks or lays down their card must drink twice. All the cards played are then mixed back into the fish pond. Highest card laid down starts the next round.

    If a player lays down a KING then before the next round everyone must pass their entire hand to the right.
    First player run out of cards wins! They may doll out 4 drinks however they wish.

    Medusa!

    This is a funny drinking game where everyone forms an even circle around the table. Place 20 jello shots, or drinks on the middle of the table. Everyone puts their heads down and on the count of three looks up at another player.

     If two people find that they are looking at each other then they both must yell “ Medusa” and race to down a shot first. The last to finish their shot must take two. If more than one pair yells medusa, that’s fine. Same rules apply; the last of the four to finish their shot must drink two shots.

    Keep playing until there are no more shots. Then play again if you want. This game is best if you have six or more players

    Best Sucker Contest

    This party drinking game is HILARIOUSLY FUN! Fill a bunch of 4oz baby bottles (enough for each player) with your choice of alcohol. At the start of go everyone must suck the baby bottle empty. First one done is the official best sucker! And may doll out three shots however they like. The last person who finishes must take three shots themselves. Nipples come in different size holes so make sure you get them all the same, and don’t get the newborn ones or it will take too long. Don’t worry the packages show the nipple sizes on the box.

    Celebrity Game

     The first player starts with a celeb’s name , they can choose whether they want to include the last name or not. The group says: "HUNT!"

    Guilty Party

    This is a fun twist on the never have I ever drinking game. This game is not as complicated as it sounds (it was just hard to write) and it is a hilarious way to combine, drinking, getting to know your friends better, and gambling on how well you already know them.

    Pass all players 4 index cards. Have them each write something they have never done on two of them, and something they are guilty of on the other two. Collect all the cards and spread them out in the middle of the table. Give each player ‘verdict cards” ,these are two index card one that’s says lie and another card that’s says truth. Have them write their names on each.TO PLAY: One player picks a card, they are now the defendant. if their card is a:


    • Never have I ever card then they must read it out loud starting with “never have I ever”. The rest of the players must decide if they are lying or telling the truth and place their verdict in front of them. The person who read this card must then admit if they were lying or telling the truth. The players that guessed wrong must take a shot.

    • if they choose a Guilty party card. They must read the card aloud and try to convince everyone that they are not guilty of this crime. Everyone must decide if they think the person is guilty or not. (note: the defendant may not have been the one to write the card, but that doesn’t mean they are not guilty of the crime) If they think the person is lying they place their “lie” card in front of the defendant. They then place their truth card in front of the person they really think is the guilty party. If they think that the defendant is telling the truth then they place their truth card in front of the defendant, and their lie card in front of whoever they would like to drink.
      If the defendant does turn out to be guilty then they must take a drink for every person that gave him a lie card . The players that gave him their truth card must also take a drink for being wrong.
      If the defendant is telling the truth then everyone who gave him a lie card must take a drink, and everyone who was given a lie card by another player must also take a drink.
      Finally, for all the people that were given truth cards by players that thought they were the real guilty party. If they are guilty they must take a drink, if they are not then the person who gave them a truth card must drink.


    After, the defendant is finished, play goes to the left and that person becomes the next defendant. Game can be as long as you want it by deciding how many times everyone will get to be the defendant.
