Drinking Games – Issue 00

Rage Cage

You’ve heard of chandeliers and flip cups, but here’s a new one that you can spend the first hour explaining before inevitably introducing the ‘watch and learn’ rule. Unless you grew up in a small town binge drinking culture, this may be the first time you’ve heard of this glorious game.

 

You’ll need: 

 

– 2 ping pong balls.

– 10 or more plastic cups.

– One table.

– 3 or more poor cunts to play.

 

Set Up:

 

– Place all the cups together in the centre of the table. 

 

– Fill the cups a third of the way up, but fill the cup in the centre all the way. 

 

– All players stand around the table. 

 

– Pick two players standing across from each other to start, and give each of them a ping pong ball.

 

Rules:

 

– The entire group counts down from ‘3’ to start the game.

 

– The two starting players each take a cup closest to them and drink its contents. They then try to quickly bounce their ping pong ball into their empty cup.

 

– Once a player bounces a ball into their empty cup, they pass the cup and the ball clockwise to the next player to do the same.

 

– If a player happens to make it on their first try, they can pass the cup to any player on the table who is not still bouncing.

 

– This continues until a player makes a ball into their cup, while the next person is still bouncing.

 

– Once this happens, the player who made it will stack their cup on to the cup of the person ahead of them who’s still bouncing. The losing player will then pass their stack clockwise, pick a new cup, drink the contents, and continue playing.

 

– If a player accidentally bounces their ball into one of the center cups, they must take that cup, drink its contents, stack it on top of their previous cup, and continue trying to make their ball into the stack.

 

Once you’ve sunk every cup, the game is done. With Rage Cage, there’s only losers.

 

Kings Cup

 

Every flat has their version and every flat uses the wrong rules. We’ve got you covered with an easy go-to guide as to how to actually play. So stop fighting you fucks, and sink some piss.

 

Set up

 

Put a large as fuck vessel in the middle (we use a fishbowl from kmart), spread a pack of cards in a cricle around it, whoever pissed last goes first.

 

Card Rules

 

2: Two for you – Pick someone to drink twice.

 

3: Snake Eyes – You are now snake eyes, anyone who makes eye contact with you drinks.

 

4: Gals – Wāhine, Drink up.

 

5: Never have I ever – Five fingers, go around and share things you’ve not done. Put a finger down for things you have. First five down, drinks.

 

6: Dicks – Let’s go lads. Take a gulp.

 

7: Thumbs – The thumbmaster will sneakily put their thumb on the table. Last to notice, drinks.

 

8: Mate – Pick a mate who’ll join you everytime you drink for the rest of the game.

 

9: Rhyme – Say a sentence with the last word being the one to rhyme. First one to repeat a word, or takes too long, drinks.

 

10: Boxhead – Whoever draws a 10 becomes Boxhead until another 10 is drawn. Chuck a box on your head and do whatever anyone tells you to.

 

J: Rule – Make a rule (Don’t use specific letters, no names, switch dominant hands). Break the rule, drink. The rule changes as the next Jack is drawn.

 

Q: Question Master — Everytime you ask a question, players must answer with ‘Fuck you question master’, or they drink.

 

K: Kings Cup – Pour a shitload of your piss into the vessel. Whoever pulls the last King ends the game by sinking the vessel. 

 

A: Waterfall – Start a drinking waterfall. The person to your left can stop when you stop.

 

Joker: Your Call – Either pick up another card, make everyone drink or make up a rule. 

 

Extra: Don’t break the circle. If your card leaves a gap, finish your drink.
