13 best drinking board games
He enjoys a drink for adults or two at the evening games at Kendra. We view alcohol and board games as a social event that can be extremely fun. Because of this, I started thinking about what kind of games I could change and turned into the best social drinking games.
The ultimate goal of most alcoholic games is to get you drunk. If that’s what you’re looking for, a round or two or a King’s Cup and Three Man will do the job. But I wanted to think of games that would be enhanced by drinking and not necessarily the whole point of the game.

The best drunk game
Best Social Deduction
Best overall
For this list, I chose board games that could be turned into fun drinking games or simply improved with the drinking element.
Before we jump on the list, I feel responsible to add a little public service notice. I was in the Navy for five years and my liver is still recovering. If you decide to drink, drink responsibly. Drinking games can be especially sharp with this and remember that the point is fun.
Know your limits and if the player says he can no longer drink, then he can no longer drink. A lot of the games I played in the Navy involved a lot of peer pressure to drink copious amounts of alcohol. Enjoy, have fun, but remember it’s just a game. Be safe.
1. Red Dragon Guesthouse
Seriously, this game was designed so that we could play it with a glass of beer in hand. The Red Dragon Inn is a fantasy board game in which a group of adventurers have already completed their epic quests and been paid. All that was left was to hit the inn and celebrate.
During the game, players will issue drink cards and gamble their income. The last player to stand is the winner. All it takes to turn this into a drinking game is to add some beer and take a drink every time you use the drink card. This is a great game that is not too heavy with rules and already has a drink recording system in place.
Each player will receive a character card with some special abilities and statistics used for drinking and generally mixed with other sponsors of the Red Dragon Inn .
- Playing time 30-60 minutes for 2-4 players
- Basic game in the expandable series of the Red Dragon Inn
- With the game you get 4 unique cards for players with 40 cards, one card 30 ...
Throughout the game, players can buy drink tickets and play their hard-earned adventure booty. The last player standing (or rocking) in the inn is declared the winner. If your character drank too much and fainted, dropped out of the game, or ran out of money, he was kicked out of the inn and lost.
The theme is silly and any player who has ever gotten stuck in Dungeon & Dragons will know sitting in an inn and having a few drinks with their adventurers. Lots of fun and to find out more, check out our full review here !

2. Cf.
I really like board games and hidden traitor games. While playing Avalon, I met some of my closest friends for the first time.
Avalon and Resistance are basically the same game, but differently themed. In both versions, each player will be given a hidden role: either good or bad. The good ones will not know who is on which team, and the bad ones will know who is on their team.
The game lasts five rounds in which players must send each other on missions. Every player wants to go on these missions. The good ones want out to succeed, and the bad ones want to fail. Bad guys also have the opportunity to help accomplish a mission to sow discord and hide among the good ones.
Most of the gameplay involves a table conversation. Players will have to lie or convince everyone at the table that they are on a good team to convince other players to send them on missions.
How to make this drinking game
The drinking penalty could easily be added to the mission phase.
- If the mission fails, mission members can afford a drink.
OR
- If the mission fails, everyone on the mission takes a drink.
This can definitely motivate people and give more encouragement to join the mission team.
- The lost team drinks a drink / shot
- The head of the failed mission takes a drink / shot
- Resistance redefines the social deduction that everyone plays until ...
- Your ability to lie to friends and know when they are lying ...
- Not for those with a bad heart or slow, but if you are fast ...
Avalon and Resistance are already wild board games and adding a few drinks can intensify that. Make sure everyone is a lucky drunk before playing.

3. Deadwood
Deadwood is a cowboy shooting game set in the badlands of South Dakota of the Wild West. Each player takes their gang and heads around the city, starting shooting, gambling, robbing banks and building a city.
Players will quickly realize that this place is not big enough for both of them and they can resort to shooting to kick players out of the spaces they need.
How to make this drinking game
The launches offer an interesting mechanic to make it a drunken game. The loser of each round of shooting takes a drink. If a member of your posthumous death dies, you should definitely take a potion in your memory (pour it for your bridesmaid). For a themed touch, I would suggest bourbon.
Deadwood and bourbon are the perfect pair. I have become a big fan of whiskey and I really enjoy the different flavors you can get from a good bottle of whiskey.
For those of you who don’t know, most whiskey-producing regions will have a certain name. Scotch comes exclusively from Scotland and Bourbon comes exclusively from the US. Every region and distillery will have cheap stuff and some really amazingly flavored whiskey.
- A game with the placement of workers with a quick and deadly twist
- Finish the game as the richest cowboy to win
- Three unique ways to end the game
For Deadwood, if you drink it nicely (straight from the bottle), I suggest you listen to something a little more refined than Jack Daniels. If it’s mixed, then it doesn’t really matter.
4. POK! Dice game
Dice games make great drinking games. If you spill on the cubes, just wipe them off and move on. The dice rules are usually simple enough that players don’t have to spend a lot of limited attention on the game while still having fun.
POK! Playing dice is like a weird mix between playing dice and playing social deduction. Players will get more hidden roles and will have to roll the dice to shoot opposing teams.
- Sheriff
- deputy
- Outlaws
- Renegades
The winning team is usually last. The sheriff is exposed and must kill the outlaws. Deputies must support the sheriff and keep him alive. All outcasts must kill the sheriff, and Renegades must survive until the end of the game.
On each move, players will roll dice to perform actions.
- Shooting other players
- Increase range
- The Indians are shooting at us
- Shooting all other players with a Gatling gun
- All the emotions of BANG! in a handful of dice: BANG! Cubes ...
- Five six-sided dice and nine Indian arrows; You will be brave ...
- BANG! The dice game is the perfect game for those who have little ...
How to make this drinking game
Turning BANG! play dice in BANG! The drinking game is easy. Just replace drinks with life points. However, if you feel really froggy, you can replace them with shots.

5. Epic spells of war wizards
This game is literally too weird to not have an open beer while playing. One of the wizards you can play is Pisster the Pissed Wizard, who carries a huge barrel on his back and his magic wand is a huge beer tap ... seriously, go get a beer.
Epic Witch Wars is a simple card game where players duel wizards who invent stupid (or wonderful) witches.
"Bleemax Brainiac's - Two-Faced - Testikill" is a legitimate spell in the game.
Players will spell up to 3 cards. Source (start), quality (middle) and delivery (end). Each spell has a different type of magic and the more cards in a spell that has the same type of magic, the stronger it will be.
The game is to be played in rounds and the winner of each round receives a Last Wizard Standing token. Take two of these bad guys and you win the game.
- Explosive spell card game for 2-6 players aged 15 or over, ...
- A box bursting at the seams with super cool works of art - playing cards ...
- A cheerful mechanic who combines spells, creates endless playing ...

I love bluffing.
Coup is a bluff set within the same world as Resistance, but much faster and easier. Players have two cards representing their influence in government. Each card has a special ability. Players will try to raise money to carry out a coup and destroy the influence of other players. The winner is the last player standing with the cards (impact).
The interesting part about Coup is that you can claim to have any card and use any special ability in the game. You can completely bluff the whole game and demand whatever you want. If you are ever challenged and caught in a lie, you will lose influence (map).
This is great. Check out our Complete Review for Strategic Advice!
- Age Mfg. Minimum: 120.0 months
- For 2 to 6 players
- Play in 15 minutes
How to make this drinking game
When a player challenges another player, the loser of the challenge definitely deserves a drink (or shot).
Losing influence within the government or accepting a coup is devastating in the game (and on the psyche). You should probably try to calm your nerves.

7. Zombie Dice
Zombie Cubes is a simple luck-pushing dice game in which players are zombies .
Like zombies, eating brain is the most important thing in life. Each turn, players will start by throwing three dice.
- Shotgun Blasts: Injure yourself, 3 explosions and your turn ends without scoring
- Brain: Tasty (winning points)
- Feet: People have escaped.
If you ever run three guns, your turn ends without a result.
Every brain you turn is worth one winning point.
Feet mean you can die that matrix.
After each roll, players can tap into the lucky one by drawing another dice and continuing to roll any dice along with the new dice. If you ever get 3 guns ... BOOM! Your turn is over and you don't get points. There are 3 colors of cubes to suit different probabilities.
- Green Cubes: More options for moving the brain.
- Red Dice: More options for blowing up guns.
- Yellow dice: somewhere in the middle.
- Standalone game, carry the dice in a cup
- 2+ players
- 15 20 minutes to play
How to make this drinking game
It’s easy to assign drinks to dice. If you get some brains, assign them to drinks equal to the number of brains. If you fire a rifle, take a drink. If you turn 3 guns in the plant, finish your drink. It will be a brutal game, but no one said the zombie was easy.

8. Munchkin
Munchkin is already a game of ridiculousness and stupidity.
Come on ... their slogan is
“Go down to the dungeon. Kill everything you encounter. Turn your friends behind the scenes and steal their stuff. Grab the treasure and run. "
Whether you love it or hate it, there is no denying that Munchkin is a classic card game that has stood the test of time.
In the game, players will kick the door by drawing a door card, solving a monster fight card, putting a card in their hand, or cursing (hint: don't pick up ducks in dungeons).
Players can tease other players by attacking them, encouraging monsters, and generally jerking off to each other. But be careful, because the players you tease may be your only hope of survival if you need help in battle.
Any monster you kill will equalize your character and give you some prey. The first player to reach level 10 wins, but this will be the path to the top.
- You can play the whole game out of the box
- 3 to 6 players
- 1 2 hours to play
How to make this drinking game
You can easily improve your munchkin with some drinking rules:
- If you’re cursed while kicking the door, have a drink; 2 drinks if cursed by another player.
- Level up = give a drink
- Lose level = Take 2 drinks
- You can also bargain and exchange drinks when it comes to asking for help in battles.

9. Drunk Quest
If you want to skip the pretext of the game, you can always try Drunk Quest. It’s a similar game to Munchkin, but 100% designed with drinking in mind.
DrunkQuest is basically the same thing as Munchkin, but with a built-in drink. Players get a card with signs, an empire and a handful of treasures.
With each move, players will turn cards from the monster deck and have to fight the monster shown ... sounds familiar? Instead of using the cards to increase equipment and character statistics, the cards change the number of drinks you will need to drink instead. To actually kill the monsters, players will add up their scores and abilities awarded with cards. The result is calculated how many drinks a player will have to drink to kill a monster.
After defeating the monster (by drinking), players will then gain a level depending on the power and treasure of the monster.
DrunkQuest also includes monster bosses that all players will have to fight together. If the ultimate power of the monster boss is 10, EACH player will have to drink 10 drinks and no one will reach the level, but everyone will still get the treasure.
This is hellishly fun. It’s almost perfect like Munchkin, but instead of using the values of monster-fighting equipment, you’ll have to drink to kill monsters.
- Big premium cards
- 2 to 6 players aged 21+
- Fantasy RPG / adventure theme
But be careful, I have some sailor friends who would basically never get lost and can even entertain monsters.
The game is not currently in print, but a few copies are still floating. Publishers are currently reprinting and updating the collection, so keep an eye out for that coming soon.

10. Suddenly drunk
Oddly enough, he suddenly gets drunk claiming to be an extension of (literally) every turn-based game so far.
That’s a pretty bold claim.
Basically, this simple deck of cards can be added to any turn-based game.
The deck of cards is split and in normal play, players will draw and play cards in addition to any game you add.
Suddenly drunk includes all the classic drinking rules… like PIJ.
Okay, there's a lot more to it. There are also some interesting mini-games and weird rules that remind me of drinking school and being deployed in the Navy. All the classic drinking rules are followed here.
- Speak in 3rd person
- Truth or Dare
- Fake your death (everyone drinks in your honor).
- Finish your drink or skip your queue
- Strange voices
- Unpleasant stories
If you’re having trouble turning games into drinking games, this is probably the easiest way. Note that the game is called Suddenly Drunk, not sipping beer in the middle of the game. It’s designed to force you to drink, and it’s great at it. You’ll be drinking a lot, so keep that in mind with your audience. If you’re fed up with the King’s Cup and still want to play a game with a drink, this will definitely work out.
It definitely makes Monopoly more interesting.
- Easily turn every turn game into a drink!
- Add funny rules to yourself and your friends that they must ...
- Build your perfect drinking game by adding or removing ...
A word of caution: There are 3 extensions for this game ... and they are exactly as you think they are.

Variations and extensions
Speaking of…
11. Cards against humanity
Cards against humanity are usually drawn after everyone has already drunk something. Why not add some drinking to the rules?
One way to spice up an already spicy game is to add a drink or two to each round.
- If no one laughs at your card, get a comfort drink.
- If the card is particularly disgusting, the emperor can assign a drink.
- If you have a handful of stupid cards that no one likes, you can draw a whole hand, but take a big drink.
- A fun game for awful people.
- Included are 500 white cards and 100 black cards forever ...
- Includes a booklet of sensible rules of the game and nonsensical ...
The house rules added by CAH are pretty endless and, let’s be honest, if you’re playing CAH, you probably already have a beer or cocktail in hand. You could also add it to the rules.
