When it comes to drinking games, many of them involve playing with cards. But what if you don't have a deck of cards on hand or simply want to mix things up? Here are some fun and easy drinking games for adults that don't require any cards.
1. Never Have I Ever
Never Have I Ever is a classic drinking game that can be played without cards. The rules are simple: each player takes turns making a statement starting with "Never have I ever..." and then finishing the sentence with something they have never done. If any of the other players have done that thing, they take a drink. This game is a great way to get to know your friends better and learn some surprising things about them.
2. Kings
Kings is a popular drinking game that can be played with just a regular deck of cards, but it can also be adapted to not use cards. To play, each player takes turns drawing a card from a pile. Each card corresponds to a different rule, such as "make a rule," "take a drink," or "give a drink." This game can get pretty wild, so make sure you play with responsible friends.
3. Thumper
Thumper is a high-energy drinking game that involves a lot of shouting and movement. Players sit in a circle and each choose a hand motion, such as clapping or fist-pumping. One player starts by doing their motion and then the person to their left does their motion, and so on. The last person to do their motion takes a drink. This game is a great way to get everyone hyped up and having fun.
4. Buzz
Buzz is a simple but challenging drinking game that can be played without cards. To play, players take turns counting up from 1, but every time they get to a number that is a multiple of 7 or contains the number 7, they have to say "buzz" instead. If a player messes up, they have to take a drink. This game can be surprisingly difficult, especially as you get further into the numbers.
5. Power Hour
Power Hour is a classic drinking game that involves taking a shot of beer every minute for an hour. You don't need any cards for this game; just a shot glass, a timer, and plenty of beer. This game can get pretty intense, so make sure you pace yourself and drink plenty of water.
6. Flip Cup
Flip Cup is a team-based drinking game that can be played without cards. To play, divide into two teams and line up on opposite sides of a table. Each player has a cup of beer in front of them, and they have to chug it and then flip the cup over with their fingers. Once a player successfully flips their cup, the next player on their team can start. The first team to finish wins. This game is a great way to get everyone involved and working together.
7. Edward 40 Hands
Edward 40 Hands is a drinking game that involves duct-taping a 40 oz. beer to each of your hands and not being able to take them off until you finish both of them. This game can be played without cards, but it does require some preparation and commitment. Make sure you have plenty of time and a safe place to play before attempting this one.
Conclusion
There are plenty of fun and easy drinking games for adults that don't require any cards. Whether you're playing with friends or trying to break the ice at a party, these games are sure to get everyone laughing and having a good time. Just remember to drink responsibly and never drink and drive.
