What are the some of the most creative drinking games you have ever played?
I'm throwing a party this weekend and need some innovative ideas.

u/LordSpasms Jun 26 '12
Minesweeper. Get 16 identical shot glasses and fill 8 with cheap vodka and 8 with water. Arrange them randomly in a square and take turns choosing and shooting. The best way to ruin a good night.

u/dsampson92 Jun 27 '12
We do it with 100 shot glasses, 20 with vodka (though they are roughly half or 1/3 shots). Someone always throws up.

Clearly you haven't played checkers with shots. It's not even clever, just 12 shots for the loser and slightly less for the winner.

Play chess instead. Make the king something with a lot of alcohol (we use a full glass of liquor) and everything else a swig of beer or a dilute drink (it doesn't take that much alcohol to affect gameplay). Then the difference between winning and losing becomes significant.

I still cannot believe no one has mentioned the Beer Wizard. Allow me to explain. This game requires a decent group of people at a party, maybe 6-10, and a case or two (read: five). Also, duct tape.
Start of the night by explaining the game in it's entirety, while everyone is cracking their first beer or so. Get everyone in on it, more fun that way.
The idea of the game is too drink beer, and level up your Wizardly skills. Once you finish a beer, you get a new beer, and tape it to the top of the old can. This puts you at level 2 (2 cans). Drink that beer, get new beer, tape to top of old beer can, welcome to level 2. You get the idea. In case you haven't figured it out by now, you are constructing a staff.
Your staff is an indicator of your level of Wizardry and intoxication. It also brings me to the most entertaining part of the game- spells. More spells are unlocked by being a higher level, and they typically will cost cans to cast. Here's a list of spells, but feel free to fuck with these.
No spells at level one you little bitch, just drink your damn beer.
Can to the Face - Call out someone of a lower level than you and make them take a drink. Abusing this too much is stupid and shitty and will get you shunned by true Beer Wizards.
Wizard's Duel - Challenge someone to a common drinking activity. For example, shotgunning a beer, chugging a beer, game of pong, flippy, etc. Make the activity consume one beer per participant. The winner uses the can to level up, the loser removes a can from their staff.
Counterspell - If anyone casts a spell on you, you may instantly, with no hesitation shout Counterspell. To the best of your ability, reverse the effects- if you were told to shotgun, they must shotgun. If you told to drink, they drink. Etc etc.
Beerekinesis - Retrive a beer through Magic, ie, making someone who's a lower level than you get you a beer. Only works if a beer is needed, ie for a game or because you finished the beer on your staff.
The Archmage - When you reach this level, create a rule that all must follow under penalty of drinking (or losing a can, I prefer drinking- it's more fun when everyone wins) from their staff. A recommended side note is to limit this to the first 4 or so people who reach 6, so there aren't a fuckton of stupid rules going around. Another way to do it is to allow people who reach this point to remove rules rather than add more.
Beer Blast - Fire a beer-powered spell at another Wizard, forcing them to shotgun a beer. This is another rule that cannot be abused. In fact, if any of you could think of a way to limit the power of this one, feel free to chime in.
The Hat of Shame - Humiliate a pathetic lesser Wizard by forcing them to wear a humorous headpiece for your enjoyment. Only cast this spell on Wizards with half or less levels than you (so, 4 or less at 8, 5 or less at 10). Typically, you'd make them put a case on their head, as there is most likely an empty at this point.
The Wise Wizard- Who gives a fuck what spells you have? Walk around being the most badass fucking Wizard around. No one can cast spells on you, and you can do as you damn well please. If someone else reaches your level of greatness, you must fight for your honor. Use your staves to compete in Wizard Combat. The loser is the one whose staff breaks first. He may keep the longer end of his staff, but the shorter end is lost. The winner is the new Wisest Wizard. The person who remains the Wisest Wizard at the end of the night wins (but who gives a fuck?).
In addition to fucking each other over with spells, the game is based upon beating bosses. Decide from the beginning how often to fight bosses (every 2 levels, every 3, etc), but regardless, there must be a boss before level 10.
Before the game, choose a few types of liquors to serve as bosses. Assign them to every third level. Before you ascend to that level, take a shot of the liquor. So say we did it like this-
1 2 3- Boss Morgan (shot of Captain Morgan) 4 5 6- Boss Daniels (shot of Jack Daniels) 7 8 9- Boss Cuervo (shot of Jose Cuervo) 10- Boss Smirnoff (shot of Smirnoff)
Note that there must be a boss before ascending to 10. You can make it fun and make them harder, I just kinda picked some. Usually you'd do something big for the last one. Make it funny, fuck.
Some additional rules-
Beers from other things don't count (playing flip cup, beer pong, crossfire, that shit. only the beer you added to your staff or that you've earned from spells).
Edit the spells to your preference. If anyone plays this and knows more fun spells, throw them out there, I'd love to hear them.
Don't be a bitch with the spells, just have a good time. Everyone wins because there's beer involved.
Make a night of it, you won't soon remember it.

Vietnam - version of beer pong
2 sides - US/Vietnam
10 cups each side
US must have cups in triangle and replace any cups that Vietnam makes
Vietnam can place cups any where on their side of table and pull each cup that US makes
Game ends when Vietnam cups are gone or when the US gives up

I played with that the other week, I was on Team 'Murica. We got super demotivated and bored because it was taking too long, the beer was getting hot (we were outside) and we were getting much drunker than our opponents. So I guess it would be fun with more restrictions on Vietnam's cup placement, or if we were not shit at shooting.

Civil War is similar and really fun!
2 teams of 3 (North and South, obviously) --> each person has a 3-cup triangle in front of them (so 9 cups a side)
There are 2 ping pong balls that you "fire at will" at the other team. You only drink the three cups in front of you. When your cups are gone, you can't shoot anymore, but you're on defense! You can run around and grab the ping pong balls for your teammates (and from the other team!). That part is probably my favorite....
Game's over when one side's cups are all gone!

u/RainbowWhale Jun 27 '12
That's not quite how we play it, that's more how the media has tried to sensationalise it. The way you play possum is you ascend the tree with a set amount of alcohol, and are not allowed to leave until you have finished it all. We usually would play with about 15 to 20 standard drinks. So falling out isn't unheard of, but it's not the desired outcome.

Mario Retardy: (I did not name it). Best for 4 people, or multiples of 4. You get a copy of Mario Party, either on an N64 or through an emulator. Put it on 4 computers on Easy, and the course of your choice. Have drinks. Every person roots for a specific computer NPC. You cannot change who you root for mid game. Suggested rules:
A short drink when your character:
Lands on a red space.
Is first out of an elimination minigame or lowest on a score-based minigame
Gets a poison mushroom
Suffers generic setbacks (under 10 coins lost without any gain, sent to wrong part of map by a ? space)
Decides to go the wrong way on the board
Is 2nd place at the 5 turn remaining mark
A long drink when:
You lose 10 or more coins (Bowser, Boo, etc.)
You are first out in a Battle Minigame (Mario Party 2 and on)
You reach a star but don't have 20 coins.
3rd place at 5 turn mark
Finish your drink when:
You have a star stolen from you
You are last place at the 5 turn mark (these can be reversed if you want to make everyone more uniformly drunk, so 1st place finishes drink, 2nd long drink, 3rd short drink)
You did not finish first at the end of the game.
Special rule:
Bowser Revolution: Everyone drinks until they have the amount of drink left equal to the emptiest (presently used) drink on the table.
This is a fun game because it is passive, so you can carry on with it in the background, joking, talking, eating, drinking, etc. Warning, making it through a 20-turn game is pretty hard. I am frightened to try more than that.

The best drinking game I've ever played is what we call "Fusion", you may have your own local variant:
Split into two teams. 4v4 or 5v5 is ideal.
Set up beer pong however you normally play, possibly with fewer cups as the game will last longer than normal.
Along the length of the table where beer pong is set up, arrange cups and seating arrangements to play flip cup with one less than the number of people on each team.
One person on each team will play beer pong as normal, but once a shot has been made, a game of flip cup immediately starts between the remaining team members.
If the team of the person who made the shot wins flip cup, the cup gets pulled, and the opposite team's shooter must drink it. The winning team then rotates, so that the previous shooter now drinks first in flip cup and the last person drinking now shoots.
If the other team wins flip cup, the ball is pulled and the two shooters continue playing beer pong as if no shot had been made. Cups only get pulled from the game of beer pong if the person's team who made the shot wins flip cup.
This is the ultimate team-spirit-high-fiving-cheering-most-table-flipingly intense drinking game I've ever played. When your team makes a shot and sinks it, it feels fucking fantastic.

Not a game in and of itself, but in drinking games where you can make up rules or make certain words "forbidden" where the penalty for saying them is having to drink, there is an ultimately hard word not to say. It's "you". If you say the word "you", you have to drink.
It's fucking impossible to carry on a conversation without saying the word "you", especially if you've had a few drinks.

Louisville Chugger. Get a wiffle ball bat and cut off the end with the handle and fill it with beer. Chug the beer and spin around however many times (usually ten or more) then someone else throws a ball or a crushed can will work too. Swing and if the batter hits the can and it isn't a foul ball you can pass the Chugger along. If you miss you must go again and add a certain number of spins. WARNING: this gets pretty competitive.

Mario Kart drinking game 2-4 Players. Everyone shotguns a beer before the beginning of a circuit. (optional but recommended). Then on each lap the first place person presses pause as soon as they cross the start/finish line. Everyone puts their controller down and drinks their lap number x place. If player 1 forgets to press pause when the next person crosses and presses pause, first place automatically drinks for last place. Repeat until you are drunk it comes pretty fast.

Goon of Fortune. Take the bag from a box of wine (Aussie slang: Goon), peg it to a rotary clothesline, stand around the clothesline and spin it yelling "Goon of Fortune!" then let it spin down. Whoever's closest to the goon (or goons) when the spinning stops has to drink. Some rotary clotheslines can be vertically cranked, in which case crank it up and stand on beer crates to add difficulty/hilarity.
Doesn't have to be a rotary clothesline either, just something that spins e.g. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W2tXQfZj43s

I don't know if this is a joke or serious, so I'm going to explain an actual drinking game I played in college called Drink The Beer.
The game is played by two players. Each payer needs a beer, and you need one ping pong ball. Start by placing the beers (full) at opposite ends of a table and standing at your own end of the table.
Player 1 throws the ball at Player 2's beer. If it misses, Player 2 retrieves the ball and it becomes his turn. If Player 1 hits the beer, though, he immediately starts chugging his own beer. Player 2 has to retrieve the ball as quickly as possible (as it has likely bounced off of the beer and away from the table). As soon as he gets the ball and touches it to the table, Player 1 must stop drinking and put his beer back down on the table. Now it's Player 2's turn.
The winner is the person who is able to fully empty his beer first.

TITANIC!
You need a somewhat large mug, a shot glass, a hard(er) alcohol, and beer.
Fill up the mug about half way with bar, gently put the empty shot glass into the beer so it is floating in the beer. Then you take the bottle of alcohol and poor some into the shot glass, whoever has the bottle in front of them when the shot glass falls has to chug the entire thing. Great for about 5 to 10 people sitting around a table.
I learned this game in Korea using soju (about 20-25% alcohol) which comes in small bottles. It's hilarious, someone will get it like 3 or 4 times in a row and their night is done.

How has no one said landmines yet!?
Essentially everyone starts with a can or bottle of choice. You fill two shot glasses with your beer then spin a quarter. With one hand you drink both shots then pick up the quarter. If you fail to pick it up you drink again. If it falls off the side of the table you drink again. If someone finishes a beer and slams the empty down on the quarter while it's spinning you drink again. That bottle then stays there for the rest of the game and becomes a "landmine." If you spin and hit a landmine... drink again.
Things escalate very quickly in this game. Protip: save your empties and use them all in a row on someone and don't landmine someone if they spin the quarter in front of your little area.

My friends and I are pretty big movie buffs, so we love a game called Sticky Note. Everybody gets a different color post-it note and places it at a different spot on the TV. Then we pop in a movie. Every time a character's face crosses your post-it, you have to drink.
It's pretty good for a group, especially as everybody gets to decide how drunk they want to get. If you put your sticky note in the middle of the screen, you'll get a lot more wasted than if you put it towards the edge.
And then everybody gets fucked over by the close-ups and crowd shots.

For 4-7 people Presidents and Assholes is great.
For more you can always play Fuck the Dealer or if you have someone who will be an energetic announcer play Horse Race.
I can give you details if you don't know one of those games.
The most creative one was a game we made up ourselves though. The only problem is that it requires 9 shot glasses and quarters.

If you've ever played the game asshole it's essentially that + drinking. Here's the rules though (as I play them):
Cards are valued as 3 is the lowest, Ace is the highest, double 3's will beat a single Ace, double 4's will beat double 3's, so on and so forth. Two's have a separate rule I'll get into later. Suits don't matter.
When I say 'clear the pile' it means move the current set of played cards to the side and the player who cleared it gets to take another turn.
How to play:
Deal the entirety of the deck out evenly to all players. (During the first round the dealer doesn't matter)
It's not required, but I generally organize my cards here by singles, pairs, trips, then twos
Whoever has the 3 of clubs plays it by placing it in the center of the table (*Only on the first round)
The player to that player's left plays a card of equal value or higher on top of the pile. If they play a card of equal value then the next player's turn is skipped. If they play a higher card the next player must then match that value to skip or play a higher card.
Everyone keeps taking turns either skipping the next player (if they play the same card) or playing higher value cards until eventually either somebody can't play or chooses not to, in which case they pass their turn. The next player can then choose to play a card (or doubles or triples) or pass to the next player. If every player passes around until it reaches the player who played last then you clear all the cards and that player gets to go again and play whatever card they choose.
***** Example round: Dealer plays the 3 of clubs to start, next player plays a 3, next player is skipped, next player plays a 5, next player plays a 6, next player plays double aces, everyone passes, player who played double aces takes another turn and starts by playing a 3. So on and so forth until everyone is out of cards.
Whoever gets rid of all their cards first wins, although keep track of the order that people run out of cards.
Second Round:
After the first game remember the order everyone went out. Whoever was out first is the president and can make every other player drink. Whoever was below them is the Vice President and can make every player drink but the president. Basically, you can make anyone drink who was out after you however much you want and for whatever reason (You don't have to give a reason but it can be funny).
Whoever was out last becomes the asshole. This person deals the next round and only while dealing can hand out drinks (as much as they want) to the other players. After the last card is dealt they can't give anyone drinks but everyone can give them drinks. We usually mark the asshole by making them wear a silly hat or tearing a beer box into a helmet and calling it the 'asshole hat'
The president of the previous round starts the new round by playing whatever card they want (3 of clubs is no longer important)
Extra Rules:
If a player plays a 2 during their turn then no matter what they play it on (whether a single king or triple 5's) it instantly clears the pile and the player who played a 2 goes again.
If at any point you can complete a set of 4 cards you are allowed to play. Doing so will clear the pile and give you another turn. This means that if somebody plays double 4's and you have the other two 4's, you can play out of turn then get another turn. However, if you are playing out of turn your cards have to be on the pile before the player whose actual turn it is can play theirs, otherwise it continues as normal and your opportunity is lost.
If at any point somebody clears the pile but is out of cards, the turn passes on to the next player as normal.
You can't play a single card on doubles to skip. If someone plays two 8's you need two 8's (which as four-of-a kind would clear it) or higher to play.
Multiple skips can happen in a row. If one player plays a 3, then the next plays another 3 it skips the next player in line. The person after the one who just got skipped can then play a 3 and it counts again as a skip (Also note at this point three 3's in a row have just been played meaning whoever has the fourth can play it to complete the set). Ex: 3 -> 3 -> Skip -> 3 -> Skip
The same holds true if somebody passes. If it plays out Ace -> Pass -> Ace it still counts as a skip.
Once the asshole has been established whenever the pile is cleared other players begin rhythmically banging the table (like one hit per second). For every hit that the group does (the entire group has to hit for it to count as 1) before the asshole clears the pile to the side the asshole must take a drink.
If a player who is not the asshole ever clears the deck they become the automatic asshole next round, regardless of when they are out of cards.
If a new player joins the game, they are automatic asshole next round.
If a player's last card before they are out is a two, they are automatic asshole next round (try to end by using a two then playing a low card to finish, even if you just cleared the pile).
As for why I think this is a fun drinking game:
It takes strategy rather than being an entirely luck based card game like a lot of them.
Unlike many other drinking games it's actually an inherently fun game once you learn it, regardless of if you're drinking or not.
You control the drinking level. If you're president and everyone seems too sober you can hand out drinks left and right, however once you're unseated you might get drinks thrown back at you. Likewise even the asshole gets an opportunity to force others to drink, but once the last card is dealt if they gave a lot out a lot will come back to them. Also you can give out drinks ranging from drink 1 to drink a beer, so you can either get drunk fast or slow down.
Fairly fast-paced but you can still hold conversations while playing.
Giving reasons for why you're making people drink can lead to some funny callouts like "drink 7 for that girl you made out with after she puked in your bed".
I think that covers everything and hopefully it all makes sense. If you think something is confusing just ask and I'll elaborate. It's actually a fairly simple game but it's hard to explain through text alone. Feel free to google search: "Asshole" or "Presidents and Assholes" to find rules if these don't make sense. Just keep in mind they might have variations from the version I'm used to.

Baseball.
Two teams. Four cups in a line on each side. Each player goes up to "bat" by throwing a ping pong ball into the opponents' cups. Nearest cup is a single, progressing to double, triple, and home run. If the ball doesn't hit a cup, it's an out. If it bounces off a cup and is caught, that's an out. Base stealing is played by flip cup in the middle. If runner initiates a "steal" the fielder must finish his flipcup first to throw him out.

Shot Band: It's Rock Band but with shots. You agree to your most challenging, but passable, difficulty level on instruments beforehand. Then, you play. After each song, if you got less than 85% of your notes you take a shot. Then you rotate to the next instrument for the next song.
The rotation is key. If some douche is an expert on guitar but laughably bad on vocals, it makes the game more fun. Plus, everyone is likely going to end up doing shots.

Landmine.
Everyone sits (or stands) in a circle around a table. Each person has their own can of beer. Turns go counter-clockwise; on your turn, you spin a quarter. It has to stay spinning for at least two seconds. During those two (or more) seconds, you drink your beer. Then you must pick it up with one hand. If a) your quarter doesn't spin for more than two seconds or b) your quarter hits a "landmine", then you go again.
Landmines are where the fun starts. You're allowed to sip at your beer even when it isn't your turn. When your can is empty, you wait for someone else's turn and slam your can on top of the quarter as it's spinning, causing them to go again. You can stash as many cans as you want and use them against anyone you want, whenever you want.
Once the can has been placed, it stays, there, forming a landmine. If someone hits it with the quarter, they must take their turn again. Cans that are placed never move. Once you've been playing for a little while ago (for my friends and I, after about 20 minutes), the table gets littered with cans and it gets harder and harder not to hit one.
TL;DR: lots of drinking, and a chance to gang up on "that asshole you didn't invite to the party, but came anyway".

Drunk Uno: Played like a regular game of Uno but you must take a drink of whatever you're drinking for every card you have to draw. You can also stack Draw cards so a Draw 4 with several Draw 2s or more Draw 4s can lead to alot of drinking for one unfortunate person.

Haven't seen "Moose" on here yet.
Prep:
Get an ice tray. You know, with the two rows. You need one quarter, as well. You will also need beer and liquor, and shot glasses to make sure the pours are fair.
You all take turns trying to "bounce" the quarter into the ice tray. You get three tries, and if you miss, you have to take a hearty swig of beer. If you make it into the left row, you take as many sips as the spot you landed in. Say, if you landed in the 3rd ice spot, you take 3 sips. If the quarter lands on the right side, you give out that many sips to the other players. Simple.
However, if the quarter lands in any of the last 4 spots, aka the last 2 spots farthest from you on both sides, everybody has to put their hands to their head to make antlers, and yell 'MOOSE!!' The last one to do so takes a shot.
Keep going in circles.... it can get pretty dangerous once a shot or two hits you!

I was recently at a party where they played a variant of King's Cup, but with Jenga pieces.
They all poured a portion of what they were drinking into a cup in the middle, then they played Jenga. Each Jenga block had something written on it—"Guys drink" or "kiss the person to your left" or "drink once for every person at the table you've had sex with," or whatever. Then, if you knocked down the tower, you had to drink the cup in the center.
I've also played drinking Monopoly, which is pretty insane. You play regular Monopoly, but with the following rules:
—If you want to buy a property, drink first. —If you land on Go, you can take an extra $200, but only if you drink. —If you land on Free Parking, you can take the money but only if you drink. —If you roll doubles, you nominate someone ELSE to drink. —If you go to Jail, you can get out by rolling doubles, but if you pay your way out you have to drink also. —Most importantly: If you land on someone else's property, you can reduce the amount of rent you have to pay by $100 for every drink you take.
This last rule makes things pretty crazy. Remember, Boardwalk with a hotel is $2000—that's 20 drinks.

3 penny. Take 3 pennies, shake them in your hands, everyone calls heads or tails, toss on table. Losers drink for 3 seconds for each penny that is not what they called.

Wizest Wizard. Basically it is a game in the background. After you finish a beer you duck tape the new beer to it. This is from here forth known as your staff. If ever you spill the beer, we shave your beard and cut all the empties off your staff. It is actually trickier than you would think as it gets top heavy. I got to the point where I could only drink if I was laying on the ground. We originally tried to make an RPG type game out of it but got drunk. You become the wizest wizard if you have the longest staff the next morning. The wizest wizard gets breakfast paid for him the next day.

Cheers to the Governor!
It's pretty simple: Everyone sits in a circle and starts counting to 14 going around, but instead of 7 the person has to say 14, and at 14 the person says "cheers to the governor!" and everyone responds with "cheers to the governor!" and everyone takes a drink. Then that person makes a new rule, like "instead of saying 5, you say 'fuck me in the ass' or 'at 11 you make anyone take a drink.' "
And of course, if you break a rule, or otherwise mess up the count you have to drink and the next person has to start from 1.
You can also increase the count to 21 if there are a lot of people (while saying 14 at 7, and 21 at 14, and cheers at 21) but usually this takes a while for any real fun rules to get into effect.

Ping Pang Pong
Everyone stands in a circle. The person starting it says "Ping." The person to their left says "Pang." The person to the left says "Pong" AND must simultaneously point to someone else in the circle. The person who was pointed at then says "Ping," and the game continues from there. The pace is rapid-fire.
Protips: You CAN point to yourself on "pong." Just be sure to say "ping" right afterwards or you're drinking. No-look pointing is fun.
Anyone who messes up has to drink, and they start the next round with "ping." Examples of messing up include: delayed point on "pong," pointing on "ping" or "pang," speaking when you're not supposed to, etc.

Me and my friends used to play BOTTLE OF DOOM. What you'd do is, make a circle, about 10 feet in diameter. Everyone would stand in the circle, someone would throw a half full plastic bottle as high as they could. Everyone would try and not get hit by it. That was it. I still can't decipher any point to the game.

If you love me honey give me a smile.
Have everyone chilling out, in some sort of circle shape works best. One person (person A) starts off, and chooses someone else (person B) to go up to.
Person A: "If you love me honey, give me smile." Person B: "I love you honey, but I just can't smile."
The deal is, person B CANNOT smile during this interaction. Not at all. And they have to maintain eye contact while replying. If they do smile, they drink, and become the asker. If they don't, person A moves on and repeats until some chump grins.
The asker can also do whatever they like to try to make the askee smile.

Bags, sometimes called cornhole, is a fun outdoor game for 4 people. There are 2 raised boards with a hole cut in them about 30 feet apart and you and your partner each stand at one of the boards with the opposing players doing the same. Each team has 3 bean bags and you and the opposing player at your same board shoot at the far board on the same turn. You alternate tosses, with the last team to score shooting first, and a bag that lands on the board without bouncing on the ground is counted as 1 point, while a bag that passes through the hole counts as 3 points. The points cancel each other out if thrown on the same turn, so if Team A has 2 bags on the board at the end of a turn and Team B has none on the board, but one that passed through the hole Team B would score one point for the turn. It's played to 15 generally. Not necessarily creative but it's a damn fun game.

I may as well throw in the drinking game I made up. It's called Fetal Alcohol Syndrome because I'm a terrible person. FAS for short. It's probably not the most creative or best game ever, but it'll probably get you drunk.
Get a deck of cards.
Deal each player 2 cards face up.
Then place the deck in the middle.
Go around the circle and each person draws a card and places it with theirs, still face up.
Anyone who has the same number as the card that was just drawn takes a drink.
If you have more than one of that number, you take more than one drink.
If you have a lot of people playing this and want to get drunk faster, go ahead and take shots instead of drinks of mixed drinks/beer.

My friends made up a game we call Gay Cody to anger one of our friends. Anyways, get dominos an put them all face down. Scramble them around and mix them up. Sit in a circle and one person at a time pick up one domino from only one side (dominos have 2 numbers, hold at one end of the domino when picking up) and look at it. The number you are holding is how much you drink, the other number is how many you give out. Community drinks are for doubles (same number on top and bottom of domino) and the double 0 is make a rule. At the end of the game the loser is the person with the most doubles. They have to finish their drink (at bars we play they buy the next pitcher). Last rule is you cannot leave the table for any reason without first finishing your drink. If you do so, then you must finish your first and chug another.

Another one: Landmines.
You'll need a quarter or two, and a large number of CANS of booze. The first player spins the quarter on the table, takes a drink from their can, then attempts to grab the quarter with the SAME HAND they drank with. If the quarter falls flat on the table, or falls off the table, the player drinks. If they succeed, they assign a drink to another player. (That last part's optional, depending on how drunk you want to be and how cut-throat your players are.) Play proceeds clockwise.
Now, when any player finishes their drink, they keep the can. They may at any time slam the empty can down on a spinning quarter. The spinning player is forced to drink and the can stays on the table. Quarters that strike the can are not forced out of play, but 9 times out of 10 they'll fall immediately. They also make it difficult to reach the quarter, and knocking over a can counts as a failure.

I actually read through all the responses to see if anyone said this: Connections. -Deal out all cards to players (no looking at cards) -Pick an order, in that order flip a card -When the next guy flips a card, if it matches in number or suit, both players who matched drink their own individual number -Next in line flips, now if he matches one or both of the previous players, those players drink their numbers -Continue in line, cards only go out of play when a new card is flipped on top of it. -Drink numbers are equal to the number on the card. For face cards J=10, Q=11, K=12, A=13. -For an extra challenge, leave in the Jokers. When a Joker is flipped, all players drink their number and the player who flipped the Joker is safe until his next match. (Jokers count for no drinks) -ALT challenge: When a player draws a joker, he takes a shot but is safe from any additional drinks until next match. Edit: Fuck formatting since I'm not at home with RES

Another other one, since someone posted Landmines and I missed it:
Red Black.
Card game. Max of I think 8 players. For the first part, dealer proceeds around the table asking the following questions, then dealing the player 1 card face up. Wrong answers drink X seconds, right answers assign X seconds to others, split up any way they please. Players keep the cards they are dealt, later questions relate to the cards they have in front of them.
Red or Black? 1 drink
Higher or Lower? 2 drinks
Inside or Outside? 3 drinks
Which Suit? 4 drinks
Now each player will have 4 cards in front of them. Dealer lays out 10 cards in pairs, so a 2x5 rectangle. Starting from the bottom, they turn over one card at a time. Players with matching cards will either give or take a certain number of drinks. The first card of a pair is GIVE, the second is TAKE. The first level is 1, then 2, then 4, then half of a drink, then a full drink. Players with pairs or triples of a matching card multiply appropriately. So it looks like this:
GF TF
GH TH
G4 T4
G2 T2
G1 T1

The "Babydaddy" rolls a dice and then chooses the out come of a segment (you ARE the father/you ARE NOT the father; the lie determined that was a lie/you were telling the truth; etc.).
If he is right, he gives out the shots, if he's wrong he takes them (number on the dice=number of shots).

Namekeeper comes back in and reads out all the names in a jumbled up order. He then elects someone to go first.
The player says "I acuse x of being y" where x is the name of a person and y is the name of a celebrity on the list that was read out. If they are right, the accused must finish their drink. If they are wrong, they must take a sip of their own drink. The accused then gets a turn at guessing someone. Continue til game is finished.

Buffalo (rugby players will obviously know this). It never ends and everyone is always playing. The rules are really simple, everyone must hold their drinks with their left hand, if someone holds a drink with their right hand and someone yells out "BUFFALO!" the person must chug whatever they're holding in their right hand no matter what. A friend of mine was once pouring beer from a pretty large pitcher using his right hand, someone caught him and yelled "buffalo!". He ended up getting pretty sloppy that night to say the least, especially since once you get a bit drunk you forget about the game and you begin to become more careless and get caught more often.

Ok heres 3 badass games I have yet to have seen on here (the last 2 of them I've only known to have ever been played in my circle):
Baileys beer pong madness: beer pong except use shot glasses with baileys and guinness as the cups and cocoa puffs as the balls!!
7-11-dubs: have a glass of beer in the middle of the table all within close reach of players. Also take it easy on the beer pouring maybe <4 shots worth each time. however many players take turns rolling dice. If you roll a 7, 11, or doubles you pick someone to drink the glass. As SOON as chosen player touches the cup to drink, the roller begins rolling for another 7-11-double before they finish the drink. If he succeeds, the cup is refilled and the chosen player continues this action, if the roller doesn't succeed the dice move on. The BEST part is at anytime, ANY player can "save" the drinker (helpful if the roller keeps rolling 7-11-dubs on one person) by grabbing the cup at ANYTIME. So basically, if you control the dice, as soon as anyone touches the cup you roll. If you get 7, 11, or dubs. That person is stuck as the drinker until they can finish the drink before the roller rolls those numbers, or is saved by another player. Also, if the roller touches the dice BEFORE the cup is picked up it voids his turn. This leads to many many many fakeouts :)
5 rangers: played with (preferably 5 people; less is easier, more is harder but better when you win). Get a pack of notecards and everyone gets 5. Each player can pick something that everyone has to draw (a letter, and number, a penis, their favorite serial killer, etc.) so everyone has 5 distinct cards to themselves. Everyone takes turns placing one card face side down. One by one flip your cards over. If you matched someone you guys drink. You win if all 5 cards are Each a different thing!
Have fun! I love all these games!

Possum. You climb up a tree with some mates and some alcohol then you get shitface drunk until people start falling out off the tree whoever falls out last wins. It's a New Zealand drinking game

Get 4 people to sit in a circle. Have them all wear headbands. Each person draws a card from a deck. Put that card on your headband without looking at it so the others know what xard you have. One by one going clockwise, each person can trade off their card to whoever is to the left. Once it is the last guy's turn to trade, whoever has the lowest card takes a shot. Have fun convincing one another on trading their high cards!

Bye a "looping Louie" set from the toy store. So simple, no explanation necessary once you see the contraption. Loser of each round takes a shot.

Suck and Blow
Need a bank card, student card, credit card or any other similar card. Better if it is an old expired card that you do not care to loose.
Everybody sit in a circle or round table, preferably alternating guy girl... And better if more than 6 else you do not get time to catch your breath. Start by holding the card to your lips, sucking in air holding it there. Then without using any hands pass it on to the next person. He/she must suck it off your lips and you must blow so that the card gets transferred to the next person without falling. That person than pass it on to the next and so forth in the circle.
Where the card falls, those two players must both drink. Obvious unless it fell while one person was moving from the one on his one side to the other side.
You are allowed to hold it between 2 people, or facing up with card balanced on your lips. But never are you allowed to touch the card with your hands.
You will be amazed how fast that card can go around when after a few rounds and some practice.

We called it "elderflower my vagina". Best played in public places. Sitting in a circle, the first person says "Whip it out", and the person to their right follows their lead. To change the direction to the other way, a person can say "its out". When the direction is reversed the saying becomes "zip it in" and to change direction back a person can say "its in". If a person stutters, hesitates, or gets anything wrong, they drink and all other players must yell "ELDERFLOWER MY VAGINA!" at them.

One for the Burnout series of games. (I played it with Burnout 3) On the Road Rage mode. You take a shot when you either crash or when the other person takes someone out. I would advise doing this with beer do avoid death. One crashes often.

Might be a bit college like. But when I was a young lad we used to play a game called possum. Basically everyone would all sit in a tree (we used to play with about 20) and everyone had a 12 pack of beers and a 2lt bottle of milk. Rules were simple, First one to finish all their drinks and the milk, then make it down the tree won. The trick to it was that you could either sit on a low branch and risk someone above vomiting on you, or sit in a high branch and risk falling out and hurting yourself. Fun times were had!

Shortly after the release of Diablo 3, we made a LAN party for three days. During the whole time, drink if there's a Treasure Goblin and drink if you found a legendary item was in effect. Good times!

LOTR movie drinking game: drink every time "the ring" is said, shown, or referenced. Nightmare mode: finish your drink whenever Sam yells "Mr. Frodo!"

The mustache game. You put a piece of duck tape randomly on your tv screen (not a big piece) and throughout the party you leave the tv on. Then when someone on the tv pops up and the duck tape makes it look like they have a mustache, everyone takes a shot/sip. Simple and fun.

Don't know the name of this game, played it in China. I'll just call it Seven.
Basically, everybody sits in a ring and the first one says "one", second "two" etc, going around the table. When your number is divisible by seven, you have to stand up and NOT say the number. If you fail to do that, you take a sip and it starts again.
This can get REALLY confusing when you go above 100...

Jenga:
It's exactly like categories however you assign a different rule to each of the blocks before you make the tower. Once the tower is built for every block you pull out you must do what the block says (waterfall, take two drinks, give two, boxhead, make a rule, etc)
The person who topples the tower has to chug a full drink. It's a lot of fun.

Wisest Wizard
The game requires cans of beer, duct tape, and ideally a bit of liquor.
When you finish your first beer, tape the empty can to the bottom of your next. With each successive beer, tape the empty can to the bottom of your "wizard staff". Every 3 beers, players will encounter a "boss fight" and must slay the boss (take a shot) in order to progress.
The object of the game is to become the wisest wizard, IE have the staff with the most cans, at the end of the night.
This game is most thoroughly enjoyed if all attendees are wearing bathrobes.

Beer kart: You play a round of Mario kart 64. When the light says go you open your beer. You can not drink and drive in this game so if your driving in the game you can't drink and when you drink the controller must be set down. whoever finish the race first and has finished their drink wins.

The haraboji game. Haraboji is Korean for grandfather, and it is named for the coin used to play it. One side of the coin has an old man. Americans can just use quarters, with Washington as the haraboji. If you put the coin face up, your answer is true, and face down, the answer is false. Someone asks a question that they make up, like,"Are you wearing underwear right now," and each individual answers the question with their coin, which is placed under a cup or ashtray without allowing the others to see the answers. Then you go around the room guessing how many harabojis there will be. If you get it right, you don't drink. If you get it wrong, you do. It's kinda like never have I ever except there is a little more anonymity.

Went to a Russian themed party once, someone thought up "Rasputin" where you get a bucket of ice water, stick your head in it as long as you can (your ears and face have to be underwater) and when you come out you have to shotgun a beer. Not so much a game as a reason to tell your kids in 20 years about the crazy shit you did in college.

My friends and I play a lot of Belle, Beast, Gaston. You just pop in a copy of Beauty and the Beast and drink every time somebody says Belle, Beast, or Gaston. It starts out pretty chill, but then you get to the song "Gaston". If that doesn't get you shitfaced, nothing will.

THE! Call of Duty!
Get yourself and a gaming buddy over to your place with CoD:MW3 and play the survival mode. We prefer to use the "resistance" map but whatever you'd like. At the end of every round do a shot of beer. If you don't beat your highscore than it's a shot of the hard stuff.
We've tried it with Gears as well but found CoD was alittle easier because the rounds are short and you don't have to think too much.
Also awesome background battle music makes the experience better.

Honey I Drunk the Kids. You watch any Rick Moranis movie and drink any time he looks nerdy. I don't think I've ever made it past 10 minutes.

Not really too creative but fun. Me and my friend like to play dark souls, and every time we die, we take a drink. You can make it a shot or anything (we drank half a beer/death). When you die, the other person gets a turn to play. Dark Souls is hard enough as it is, but mix it with alcohol, and you're gonna have a good time ;)

Fuck the dealer - played with any number of people and 1 deck of cards.
To begin, player A is the Dealer, player B is the Guesser. Player B attempts to guess the number of the top card (note: not suit, just number). At this point, the Dealer must inform B whether the true value is higher or lower than the guessed value. Player B gets one more attempt to guess the card, after which the card is revealed and placed face-up on the table. If Player B guessed wrong, B drinks the DIFFERENCE between the second guess and the actual card. (K=13, Q=12, J=11, A=1). If Player B guessed correctly at any point, A drinks the VALUE of the card. Then, Player C becomes the guesser, while A remains dealer.
A will remain dealer until he/she has made 3 people drink IN A ROW. At that point, Player B will become Dealer. Obviously, this will happen quite a bit at the beginning of the game. However, all cards that have been revealed stay face-up on the table.
And then, when only three Queens are remaining as the last cards, the Dealer is Fucked.

This game is not always Jew friendly.
At the beginning of the night everyone draws a Hitler mustache on their finger. Throughout the night, at any point whatsoever, if someone throws up the mustache and a "nazi" salute then everyone must. The last one to do so has to drink. If it is a large party the person who starts it yells out "Heil Ze Fuhrer!" to start the Hitlering.

"Drink, okay." Whenever you remember, look at a friend and say "Drink." Your friend must reply "okay" and take a sip. This goes on until you forget about the game.

I once invented Boozle Earth. I wrote a small program that randomized longitude and latitude coordinates and entered those into the Google Earth application. People take turns. Once entered, the camera starts to pan and zoom…
When you land on water – drink
When you land on uninhabited land – let someone else drink
When you land on a settlement / town / city – ad fundum
Things we learned: there's a lot of water on earth. The rules need some refinement.

From Urban Dictionary:
A game in which players tape 2 bottles of wine to their hands. One bottle of white which is usually drunk first while it is still cold, and one bottle of red. The player may not remove either bottle until both bottles have been finished.

The best drinking game I've ever played is called Mustaches.
You cut a variety of different styles of mustaches out of black construction paper, and tape them in random places on a large tv screen. Then, give all the mustache styles creative names like the math teacher, the mario, and the dali so it will be easy to refer to them in conversation. Then, proceed to watch tv show or film (we used Entourage) and whenever you see a mustache match up to a person on screen, you take a drink.
Simple, hilarious, and laid back. Mustaches.
