Drinking card games are a great way to spice up a party or get-together. They offer a fun and interactive way to get to know people and create some memorable experiences. However, most drinking games require at least four people to play, leaving those with smaller groups out of luck. But fear not, there are still plenty of great drinking card games for three people. Here are some of our favorites:
1. Three-Man
Three-Man is a classic drinking game that can be played with just three people. To play, one person is designated as the Three-Man and must roll the dice on each turn. If the dice add up to three, the Three-Man drinks. If the dice add up to the number of one of the other players, that player drinks. If the dice add up to eleven, everyone drinks. The game continues until someone passes out or gives up.
2. Pyramid
Pyramid is a fun and challenging drinking game that can be played with three people. To play, you'll need a deck of cards and a steady surface to build a pyramid on. The game starts by building a four-card pyramid face-down. The bottom row of the pyramid has four cards, the second row has three cards, and so on. Each player takes turns flipping over two cards at a time. If the two cards add up to 10, the player can give out a drink. If the two cards are the same, the player can choose someone to drink. The game continues until the pyramid is fully built.
3. Circle of Death
Circle of Death, also known as Kings, is a popular drinking game that can be played with three people. To play, you'll need a deck of cards and a large cup. The game starts by placing the cup in the center of the table and spreading the deck of cards around it. Each player takes turns drawing a card and following the corresponding rule. For example, if a player draws a two, they can choose someone to take a drink. If a player draws a king, they pour some of their drink into the cup in the center. The game continues until all the cards have been drawn or someone passes out.
4. Higher or Lower
Higher or Lower is a simple and fun drinking game that can be played with three people. To play, you'll need a deck of cards and a lot of alcohol. The game starts by one player drawing a card and the other two guessing whether the next card will be higher or lower. If someone guesses wrong, they drink. If all three players guess correctly, the player who drew the card drinks. The game continues until the deck runs out or everyone is too drunk to continue.
5. Never Have I Ever
Never Have I Ever is a classic drinking game that can be played with three people. To play, one person starts by saying "Never have I ever..." followed by something they've never done. For example, "Never have I ever gone skydiving." If any of the other players have done that thing, they take a drink. The game continues with each player taking turns saying something they've never done. The game can get pretty revealing and is a great way to get to know people better.
Conclusion
Drinking card games for three can be just as fun and entertaining as those for larger groups. Whether you're playing Three-Man, Pyramid, Circle of Death, Higher or Lower, or Never Have I Ever, be sure to drink responsibly and have a good time. Cheers!
