Drinking card games are a great way to socialize and have fun with friends while enjoying your favorite beverages. Here are some of the best drinking card games for adults:
Kings
Kings is a classic drinking card game that is easy to learn and play. To start the game, spread a deck of cards face down in a circle around a large cup. Each player takes turns picking a card and following the corresponding rule:
- Ace: Everyone drinks
- 2: You choose someone to drink
- 3: You drink
- 4: Everyone touches the floor, last person to do so drinks
- 5: Guys drink
- 6: Chicks drink
- 7: Everyone points to the sky, last person to do so drinks
- 8: Pick a mate, they drink when you drink
- 9: Rhyme time, you say a word and everyone else has to say a word that rhymes, first person who can't think of one drinks
- 10: Categories, you choose a category and everyone takes turns saying something that fits in that category, first person who can't think of one drinks
- Jack: Make a rule, everyone has to follow it, or they drink
- Queen: Question master, whoever you ask a question to has to answer with a question, or they drink
- King: Pour some of your drink into the large cup in the middle of the circle, whoever picks the last king has to drink the cup
Flip Cup
Flip Cup is a fast-paced drinking game that requires teamwork and coordination. To play, divide into two teams and line up on opposite sides of a table. Each player has a cup filled with a small amount of beer. The first player on each team chugs their beer and tries to flip their cup over by flicking it with their finger. Once they successfully flip their cup, the next player goes. The first team to have all their players finish and flip their cups wins.
Never Have I Ever
Never Have I Ever is a popular drinking game that reveals interesting and embarrassing truths about the players. To play, each player takes turns saying something they've never done before. Anyone who has done that thing has to take a drink. The game continues until everyone is sufficiently tipsy and willing to share their deepest secrets.
Asshole
Asshole is a fun and competitive drinking game that requires strategy and a bit of luck. To start, each player is dealt a hand of cards. The player with the highest card becomes the President and the player with the lowest card becomes the Asshole. The other players are ranked in between, depending on their card. The President goes first and can play any card they want. The other players must follow suit, or play a higher card. The first player to get rid of all their cards becomes the President for the next round, while the last player becomes the Asshole. The game continues until everyone is too drunk to play.
Ring of Fire
Ring of Fire is a popular drinking game that involves a deck of cards and a lot of drinking. To play, spread the deck of cards face down in a circle around a large cup. Each player takes turns picking a card and following the corresponding rule:
