# Drinking games for groups

> The best drinking games for a group are the classic party card games (never have I ever, most likely to, would you rather and truth or dare) with one simple sip rule each. Here are all five, with rules, and you can play them on everyone’s phone with drinking mode on.

Play these free on everyone's phone at https://drunkenpenguins.com/create (no app, no sign-up, 2 to 16 players).

## How to play
1. **Make a room.** One person creates a free room and switches on drinking mode.
2. **Everyone joins.** Friends join on their own phones with the code or QR. No app, no sign-up.
3. **The game calls the sips.** After each card it shows who sips. It’s only ever a suggestion, and water counts.

## The five games and their sip rules
1. Never have I ever: if you HAVE done it, you sip.
2. Most likely to: whoever gets the most votes sips.
3. Would you rather: whoever picked the less popular side sips.
4. Truth or dare: if the room says your truth or dare doesn’t count, you sip.
5. Omi: the classic Sri Lankan card game. The team that loses the round sips, and there are optional forfeits.

## House rules to try
6. Everyone agrees? Everyone sips. When a vote is unanimous, the whole room drinks together.
7. The rebel rule: if exactly one person voted differently, they pick someone to share their sip.
8. Hydration round: every fifth card, everyone drinks a glass of water. Non-negotiable.
9. No names: say someone’s name out loud and you sip. Nicknames only.
10. One for the road: at the end, last place gives a toast to the champion. Drunken Penguins calls this out for you.

## Questions people ask
### What are good drinking games for a group?
Party card games work best because they need no setup: never have I ever, most likely to, would you rather and truth or dare, each with a simple sip rule. They work for 3 to 16 people.

### Can you play drinking games without drinking?
Yes, and plenty of people do. Every game on Drunken Penguins works exactly the same with drinking mode off, and when it’s on, water counts. Drinking is always optional. Whether you drink, and what you drink, is always your own choice and your own responsibility. Water counts.

### Are there drinking games for two people?
Yes. Would you rather and never have I ever work well with two, and Couples Only is a two-player deck made for it.

### Is Drunken Penguins only for drinking?
No. It’s a party game first. Drinking mode is an optional switch for friends aged 18 and over.
