🍻 Drinking Games

Adults-Only House Rules

Last updated

This page is for adults aged 18 and over. The games do not mention alcohol, do not count drinks, and do not make anyone drink. A forfeit is a house rule you agree before you start, and a soft drink or a dare counts the same as a sip.

If someone is not drinking, they still play. Do not use this page with children, in a classroom, or as a family game night. Those pages do not link here.

Play these

5 for this setting

Would You Rather?

3–8 adults · 10 minutes

The forfeit, if you use one, is for the smaller side of the vote, agreed in advance. Four cards is enough.

Impostor

4–8 adults · 10–15 minutes

Optional forfeit for the person the group voted out, or for the impostor if they were not found. One round.

The Lying Game

4–6 adults · 15 minutes

Rookie mode. The optional forfeit is for the liar if they are caught, or for the crew if they are not. Do not add a forfeit for a hesitant answer.

Guess the Google

2–6 adults · 10 minutes for ten rounds

A wrong tap can be the forfeit. Read the scenario first. Some of the jokes are about work and embarrassment, which is the point, and also why this stays 18+.

Mafia

6–10 adults · 20–30 minutes

Only if the table already knows the night script. An eliminated player takes the agreed forfeit. Stop when the round ends, not when the bottle does.

Leave these for another setting

Guess The Flag

A timed quiz. Adding a sip for a missed flag turns a geography game into a punishment for not knowing a flag. Leave it out.

Higher Lower

One miss already ends the streak. A forfeit on top of that ends the night on the first mistake.

Pictionary

The drawer is on the spot already. A forfeit for a bad drawing is how you stop people volunteering.

Chain Story Chaos

You want odd sentences. Punishing a sentence makes the chain cautious and dull.

House-rule forfeits

State the forfeit, including the soft-drink or dare alternative. Four Would You Rather cards, then one Impostor or one Rookie Alibi. Skip Flag, Higher or Lower, Pictionary and Chain Story. Stop after that hour-or-less set.

Frequently Asked Questions

No. Nothing in the app tracks drinks. Any forfeit is a rule the adults in the room added, and nobody has to drink to play.
Adults aged 18 and over, in their own home. It is not a family game and not a classroom game.
Guess the Flag, Higher or Lower, Pictionary and Chain Story. The forfeit fights the actual game.
