Cards Against Humanity - the self-proclaimed "party game for horrible people" - is repulsive, tasteless, lowbrow, and exceptionally un-PC. It's also hilarious, and its simple rules and easy accessibility (not to mention all the headlines) are quickly establishing CAH as the go-to party game of our time.

Still, if you want to make your next game of Cards even MORE fun, we've come up with a few different drinking games that you can play alongside the main event. If there's one thing that makes crass black humour all the funnier, it's alcohol!

Cards Against Humanity Drinking Game (Basic Version)

• At the end of each round, all players take a drink, except for a) the player who read out the last black card, and b) the player who won the last black card.
  
  

Cards Against Humanity Drinking Game (Advanced Version)

Same as the basic version, with the following additional rules:

• Players may, at any time, get rid of any cards they don't want and replace them with new ones from the deck. However, if you choose to do this, you must take 1 sip for every card you exchange.
  
  
• If the Card Czar (i.e. the person who read out the current black card) is torn between two or more answers, they may declare a 'tie'. The Card Czar selects the 2+ white cards that deserve to win; then, the players who submitted those cards must finish their drinks as quickly as possible. The first player to finish their drink wins the black card.
  
  

Cards Against Humanity Drinking Game (Chaotic Version)

Same as the advanced version, with the following additional rules:

• At the end of each round, all players have the option to take an additional drink. If a player opts to pay this penalty, they may nominate another player; the nominated person may not replenish their hand back to 10 cards for the next round. Strategic use of this rule will leave your opponents with too few cards to make any decent jokes.
  
  
• In the event of a 'Play 2' or 'Play 3' black card, players have the following option: once all players have submitted their white cards to the Card Czar (but before any of the cards have been read out), players may opt to take a drink. In return, this player may re-arrange the order of one opponent's cards, thus ruining their clever and hilarious answer.
  
  
• When a black card is awarded at the end of a round, any player may immediately finish their drink in order to steal that black card from the winning player. If two or more people opt to finish their drinks, the first player to finish wins the black card.

You probably know the song Roxanne by The Police. Released as a single in 1978, its probably the band's best-known song aside from Every Breath You Take, the stalker anthem that countless people have since mistaken for an appropriate wedding song.

Roxanne is also the name of a drinking game that's been popular at house parties for quite some time now. You don't need any cards, dice, or anything like that to play the Roxanne drinking game - all you need is a drink in your hand and the song queued up.

Here's how to play the Roxanne drinking game - be careful, though, because this is a hard-drinking game with a Sting in its tail! (Sorry, couldn't resist.)

How to Play the Roxanne Drinking Game

1. First, divide everyone in the room into two teams. (Don't worry about making sure the teams are the same size - it doesn't really matter.) Most people put all the women in one team and all the men in the other, but you can do it a different way if you prefer.
   
   
2. Play the song Roxanne by The Police. It doesn't matter how you play it - use Spotify, YouTube, the CD if you've got it, whatever - but it needs to be loud enough for everyone to hear it.
   
   
3. Every time the word "Roxanne" is sung, one team (usually the girls) must take a drink.
   
   
4. Every time the words "put on the red light" are heard, the other team (usually the boys) must take a drink.
   
   
5. This continues until the song is over and everyone is nice and drunk.

DRINK RESPONSIBLY! Occasionally, some bright spark will decide that it's a good idea to play both sides of this game at once, drinking on both "Roxanne" and "put on the red light". This is NOT RECOMMENDED IN ANY WAY, SHAPE OR FORM as you will basically be drinking non-stop for about three minutes.

To give you an idea of how much you'll end up drinking when you play this game, here are the lyrics to Roxanne in full (hat-tip to genius.com):

Roxanne, you don't have to put on the red light
Those days are over
You don't have to sell your body to the night
Roxanne, you don't have to wear that dress tonight
Walk the streets for money
You don't care if it's wrong or if it's right

Roxanne, you don't have to put on the red light
Roxanne, you don't have to put on the red light

(Roxanne) Put on the red light
(Roxanne) Put on the red light
(Roxanne) Put on the red light
(Roxanne) Put on the red light
(Roxanne) Put on the red light
Oh

I loved you since I knew ya
I wouldn't talk down to ya
I have to tell you just how I feel
I won't share you with another boy
I know my mind is made up
So put away your make up
Told you once I won't tell you again it's a bad way

Roxanne, you don't have to put on the red light
Roxanne, you don't have to put on the red light

(Roxanne) You don't have to put on the red light
(Roxanne) Put on the red light
(Roxanne) Put on the red light
(Roxanne) Put on the red light
(Roxanne) Put on the red light
(Roxanne) Put on the red light
(Roxanne) Put on the red light
(Roxanne) Put on the red light
(Roxanne) Put on the red light
(Roxanne) Put on the red light
(Roxanne) You don't have to put on the red light
(Roxanne) Put on the red light
(Roxanne) Put on the red light
(Roxanne) Put on the red light
(Roxanne) Put on the red light

Enjoy!

Sure, watching a movie is fun, but have you ever considered that movie drinking games might be more fun? Combine the best of both worlds and have a movie marathon while also hosting pre-drinks. So, grab the beer, grab the pillows and get ready to watch your favourite films in a way you’ve never seen them before.

The Hangover

For a night of movie drinking games, there’s no better film to start with. Hilarious and light hearted, playing the movie drinking game with the Hangover is a surefire way to get everyone in the party mood.

Rules

Drink when:

• Stu mentions/touches his missing tooth
• Alan copies what Phil is doing
• You see the new Vegas landmark
• Someone gets hurt
• Neon lights are in view

The Lord of The Rings

The Lord of the Rings is on a slightly different note to the hangover, but now you’ve got the laughing out of the way, it’s time to take a trip to middle earth. Remember, this film is almost 3 hours long – so there’s plenty of time to get perfectly merry.

Rules

Drink when:

• Frodo says ‘Sam’ at any point
• You see the ring close up
• Anyone says ‘precious’
• Anyone speaks anything that is not English
• You see the eye of Sauron

The Wolf of Wall Street

If you remember how many intoxicating substances are used in The Wolf of Wall street, we’re sure you’ll agree that this is a perfect film to play the movie drinking game with. However, try to not end up like Jordan trying to get into his car by the end of the film…

Rules

Drink when:

• You see anyone naked
• Anyone snorts something
• Someone says the F word
• You laugh

The Great Gatsby

If you read the great Gatsby in GCSE English, this is a great method of forgetting you ever resented it. The Great Gatsby is a film of incredible wonder, beauty and heartache. You’re sure to need a drink by the end anyway to drown your sorrow  – we’re just helping you get there quicker with the movie drinking game.

Rules

Drink when:

• A new 21^st Century song is played
• Daisy makes things worse
• Lana Del Rey plays
• You see the T. J. Eckleberg sign (the spooky eyes)

Die Hard

It’s time to end on a true classic. Die Hard is perhaps a film you have seen far too many times already, but it’s still great every time, isn’t it? Get ready to see it like you’ve never seen it before, with the grand finale movie drinking game. (That’s if, after the first four films, you can still see)

Rules

Drink when:

• Anyone is killed or injured
• There is an explosion
• John talks to himself
• A walkie-talkie is used
• You are reminded that it is Christmas

And there you have it: our guide to the best night in, being merry and playing movie drinking games. We have, however, worked it out, and altogether these films would take around 11 hours to watch in a row – so, I guess you better get started!

Jenga is a deceptively straightforward game that rewards a steady hand and nerves of steel. Players take it in turns to remove one wooden brick at a time from a tower that, to begin with, is stacked 18 bricks tall and 3 bricks wide; once a brick has been removed, it must then be placed on top of the tower, meaning that the structure gradually gets taller and less architecturally sound as the game wears on.

Play continues until someone knocks the tower over, at which point the culprit is eliminated from the game. The remaining players then rebuild the tower and start over until only one person remains.

As anyone who's ever played Jenga will tell you, this simple tabletop game frequently becomes as tense as a round of Russian roulette (and the longer the tower stays standing, the tenser things get). Throwing alcohol into the mix may help to calm your nerves, although a round of the Jenga drinking game tends not to last anywhere near as long as the regular, sober version. Jenga requires precision and steadiness, and booze isn't exactly known for sharpening either of these attributes!

That being said, the Jenga drinking game is still a tonne of clumsy, clattering fun - here are the rules in case you fancy getting the blocks out at your next party...

Jenga Drinking Game - Rules of Play

You will need:

• 1 x standard Jenga set (consisting of 54 rectangular wooden blocks)
• At least 2 players (this version of the game works best with 3-4 people, but more can play if you want)
• A steady supply of your favourite alcoholic beverage!

Got all that? Great - now let's play!

• Start by building the Jenga tower. Place 3 bricks in a row with the long sides touching; then place another 3 bricks on top. Your second layer should be placed at a 90-degree angle to your first layer. Continue placing layer upon layer, alternating direction so that no two consecutive layers are facing in the same direction. You should end up with a tower that looks like this:

• Pour everyone a drink. (Please drink responsibly - know your limits and stop when you feel you've had enough. Visit drinkaware.com for more information.)
  
  
• Starting with the clumsiest person at the table - or the youngest player if you can't agree on who's the clumsiest - players take it in turns to remove a single block from the tower (the top 3 layers are off-limits!) and place it on top. When placing blocks on top of the tower, be sure to continue alternating brick direction from one layer to the next.

• After you have successfully removed a brick from the Jenga tower, you may nominate another player to take a sip of their drink.
  
  
• Play continues clockwise around the table until the tower topples over. When that happens, the players whose turn it was must immediately finish their drink.
  
  
• When one round is over, simply rebuild the tower and start again! You don't have to eliminate the loser if they're keen to continue playing.

Optional Rules / Variants

There are lots of different ways to play Jenga, so if you want to make the Jenga drinking game a little more challenging, try adding some or all of the following rules:

• On your turn, you MUST take the first brick you touch, even if you immediately realise that you've made a huge mistake. Alternatively, you may change your mind...but you must take a sip as payment for your mulligan.
  
  
• Before the game begins, write a dare / forfeit on some or all of the bricks. (Don't write on Jenga bricks that don't belong to you!) When a player removes a brick from the tower, they must perform the forfeit written on that brick, if any. Example forfeits might include taking off an item of clothing or answering embarrassing questions from the other players. (You may wish to add an extra rule that allows people to swap these dares for a drinking penalty if they don't want to do them.)
  
  
• Time limits! When it's another players turn, everyone else counts down from 10, out loud, in unison ("Ten! Nine! Eight!..."). If the countdown reaches zero during your turn, you must finish your drink and refill before finishing your move. Alternatively, if there are only two of you, you could incorporate a chess clock into your game like these two guys:

March is a wonderful month. Not only is spring approaching, St Patrick’s Day is too! In true festive spirit, we’ve searched far and wide to compile a list of the best Irish drinking games out there. No cards are needed for these group drinking games, all you need to do is bring yourself (and maybe a potato, but we’ll explain that later).

Blarney’s Beer Pong Drinking Game

We’re not certain who Blarney is, but apparently, he’s charming and we can certainly get behind this St Patrick’s Day Irish drinking game. If you’ve not played beer pong before, here’s a list of all the beer pong rules you need:

Beer Pong Rules

We recommend making it more festive by requesting everyone playing speaks in an Irish accent for the duration of the game. Warning: This may get more difficult the more alcohol is consumed.

Shot Potato

Stand in a circle with a group of your rowdiest friends, find yourself a potato, stick on some classic St Patrick’s day tunes and prepare some shots ready for when the party starts. Any ideas as to how this game works? That’s right! You guessed it. Pass the potato around the circle and when the music stops, whoever is holding the potato has to begrudgingly take a shot. To take the edge off the alcohol, we recommend using our Ice Shot Glasses Mould to help it go down easily! The best part about this game is that no one gets eliminated, so you can continue to play until you are suitably ready to start dancing the Irish jig.

St. Patrick Says

Similar to Simon Says in name, and similar in… pretty much everything else. Except this time, it’s played in a bar and not at a children’s party. St Patrick is notoriously more ruthless than sweet Simon, so be sure to listen to everything he says! In our own added twist, if a member of the party fails to comply with St Patrick’s rules more than 3 times, they have to down their entire drink as punishment. (We would recommend using our Ultimate Beerbong to ensure this is the case, but maybe you’re not as harsh!)

Drink While You Think

If you’re bad at thinking on the spot, you may want to step out of this round. The rules of this Irish drinking game are to choose a category (so general celebrities, or in traditional St Patrick’s Day style, famous Irish people) and the first player starts by stating the name of a celebrity. If they said ‘Seamus Heaney’, the next player will then have to think of a celebrity’s name starting with the first letter of the previous celebrity’s surname. Difficult, right?

The Belfast and The Furious

We included this one because it made us laugh quite a lot. This Irish drinking game is ideal to play after you have played the first four listed, as by this time you will be distinctly intoxicated and ready to challenge someone to a one block ‘drag race’. No cars are involved, only feet. According to the rules, men must borrow a pair of high heels – no exceptions.

We hope you enjoy the games as much as we did writing about them! Have a fantastic St Patrick’s Day and be sure to drink responsibly..
