Drinking is fun. Card games are fun. No matter if you prefer beer, wine, tequila, gin or vodka — hearts, gin rummy, poker or Texas hold ’em. Along with 2020 came much more time spent indoors, and we’ve all gotten pretty good at entertaining ourselves outside of restaurants and bars. Since you can’t frequent your local favorite pubs and cocktail spots, why not spice up your at-home drinking routine with some drinking card games?
These card games are made to accompany libations of all kinds and they all pretty much share a common goal — to help you get drunk (safely) and have fun. Choose the one that sticks out to you, crack open a beverage and let the games begin.
1. Drunk Stoned Stupid.
This is a game that encourages you to drunkenly call out your friends’ habits. Maybe you were going to anyway, and now they can’t get mad, because it’s a card game. Hilarity and bonding may ensure.
2. Drunk Confidence Game
This is a game that might as well be based around the “hold my beer,” meme. It provides cards with funny challenges for your drunkenly confident friends.
3. Drink-a-Palooza
This is what happens when every college drinking game gets somehow mashed together and is also Monopoly.
4. Loaded Kings
Billed as the nation’s most popular drinking card game, this game comes with 54 waterproof, beer-proof cards that helpfully tell you how to play, in case you’re too drunk and you forgot.
