God Save The Queen<\/h3>\n
Requires: 50p or Pound coin<\/p>\n
The rules are simple; there is one designated coin, which has the Queen\u2019s head on one side of it. Any player may start this game by successfully placing or throwing the coin into another person\u2019s beverage, sinking it to the bottom. They will then cry, \u2018God save the Queen\u2019. The owner of the drink must then proceed to finish their beverage as quickly as possible and therefore save the Queen from drowning. Hurrah! Said person, upon completion, then gains control of the coin and may choose the next target at random to continue the game.\u00a0You can defend your drinks at any time in any way you see fit.<\/p>\n

2. Australia<\/strong><\/h2>\nG\u2019Day Bruce<\/h3>\n
Requires: Nothing!<\/p>\n
Probably the most Australian game ever, G\u2019day Bruce requires nothing more than your attention. I know, at first, it sounds simple but after a few cold ones it can become quite confusing (trust me!).<\/p>\n
Sitting in a circle, Player 1 turns to someone next to them and says \u2018G\u2019day Bruce\u2019.<\/p>\n
Player 2 will then reply to Player 1 saying \u2018G\u2019day Bruce\u2019.<\/p>\n
Player 1 will then respond with \u2018Say G\u2019day to Bruce (indicating Player 3), Bruce.\u2019<\/p>\n
Player 2 will turn to Player 3 saying \u2018G\u2019day Bruce\u2019<\/p>\n
You (hopefully) get the gist of the game. The cycle will then repeat. The idea of this is to not get the order wrong. \u00a0The player who fails to keep the game flowing, will need to choose another Aussie name for themselves, such as Sheila, shrimponthebarbie, Wallaby, Roo, Dingo or Koala.<\/p>\n
This, therefore, making the game MUCH more confusing to remember everyone’s name.<\/p>\n
3. United States<\/strong><\/h2>\nSlip and Flip<\/h3>\n
Requires: Plastic cups a table, plastic sheeting and a hose.<\/p>\n
This is the ultimate summer game and it\u2019s actually a hybrid of the two classics; Slip n Slide and Flip Cup.<\/p>\n
This is a race all about speed and skill (start the training now, lads). Kick off the game by dividing players equally into two teams. The first two players, from opposite teams, slide down the slip n slide as fast as they can to the Flip Cup table that is set up at the end. Each player has one cup that is prefilled with their chosen drink. Once the player reaches the table, they must finish their drink as fast as possible. The player must then rest the empty cup on the edge on the table where they must attempt to successfully flip (with their finger) it 180 degrees so that it lands upside down on the table. Once the first person has completed the challenge, the next person in that team can slide, drink and flip. Once all players from one team have completed this, they win! Exercise and alcohol, a perfect balance!<\/p>\n

4. France<\/strong><\/h2>\nBiscuit<\/h3>\n
Requires: Dice<\/p>\n
Take both of your dice and give them a roll. Each roll will equate to a different rule.<\/p>\n
1+1 = choose a person to take 1 drink<\/p>\n
2+2 = choose a person to take 2 drinks<\/p>\n
You see where I\u2019m going with this?<\/p>\n
If you roll a 3, for instance, a 2+1, you are in Jail (unlucky). You cannot distribute any drinks until you get out of jail. To get out of jail, when it is your turn, you must roll a double (ie. 2+2, 4+4) or someone else must roll a 2+1. They then take your place in jail. While you are in Jail, if any single dice shows a 3, you must drink.<\/p>\n
If you roll a 9, the person to your left will drink.<\/p>\n
If you roll a 10, everyone must Cheers (or in French, Sant\u00e9!) and drink.<\/p>\n
If you roll an 11, the person to your right must drink.<\/p>\n
And if you roll a 7, everyone, as quickly as possible, must put their thumbs on their forehead and say \u2018Biscuit\u2019. The last person to do so has to drink.<\/p>\n
Upon rolling any other number, the player must then pass the dice on to the next person.
\nThere are a lot of rules for this one, I know, but once you get the hang of it, this game is a real good time!<\/p>\n
5. Russia:<\/strong><\/h2>\nRussian Roulette<\/h3>\n
Requires: shot glasses, a strong stomach.<\/p>\n
Based very loosely on the actual insane game of Russian Roulette. This one won\u2019t actually kill you, however your hangover the next day could make you feel otherwise. Take a group of friends and 6 shot glasses. Fill 5 with water and one with Vodka, these represent the chambers of a gun as most are empty, except one, which contains your \u2018bullet\u2019 (aka Vodka). Choose one lucky person to go first, they must select a shot at random and down it. The player must keep their face a straight as possible to not give away whether it was water or Vodka in their shot glass (get those poker faces ready!). However, if the player wishes, they can announce to the group what shot they took. At this point they may lie, tell the truth or stay silent, it’s entirely up to them. The rest of the group must then decide what shot the person took. If they get it right, the player must take another shot again. If the groups decision is wrong, that person is safe and the next player must step up. To increase the intensity of this game you can replace more water with vodka!<\/p>\n

6. Germany<\/strong><\/h2>\nLooping Louie<\/h3>\n
Requires: Looping Louie board game<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
This a German classic. Starting off as a children\u2019s game, a genius decided to add alcohol to it and created a very tense drinking game. Each player has 3 coins lined up which represent your \u2018lives\u2019. As Louie (a man in an aeroplane attached to a pole powered by a motor) rotates around the board he will knock your coins down.\u00a0 You must use a button which is next to your coins to defend your \u2018lives\u2019, deflecting Louis up in the air as he rotates to come down and knock off another players coin. The first player to lose all their lives must drink!<\/p>\n
7. Mexico:<\/strong><\/h2>\nMexicali<\/h3>\n
Requires: Dice<\/p>\n
Choose a player to roll first.\u00a0 The aim is to get the highest possible score which are as follows:<\/p>\n
2:1 \u2013 A Mexican. The highest score you can get.<\/p>\n
3:1 \u2013 A Scumbag. Doesn\u2019t count as a throw, you must consume your entire drink (sorry!) and roll again.<\/p>\n
Doubles: For example. 2 +2 is 200, or a 6 + 6 is 600.<\/p>\n
All others: If you roll a 4 and a 1, your score is 41. If you roll a 3 and 6, your score is 63. The highest dice is always read first.<\/p>\n
The first roller may decide if they want to roll 1, 2 or 3 times in order to try and get a higher score, but they must always count the most recent score as the current. The players afterwards then have the choice to roll the same amount of times as player 1, if they wish. If a player has more rolls to go within their turn, they can choose to only roll one dice, therefore boosting their odds of rolling for a Mexican. For example, if you roll a 6 and a 1, you could just re-roll the 6 in the hopes of getting a 2 on your next turn.<\/p>\n
The person to drink is whoever has the lowest score after one full circle of dice throwing is complete.<\/p>\n
8. The international hostel game \u2013 Beer Pong<\/strong><\/h2>\nRequires: 22 red solo cups, an appropriate table about 8ft long, at least 2 ping pong balls and, of course, beer!<\/p>\n
This classic (and dearly loved) drinking game requires a fairly decent amount of skill and a bit luck. Firstly, start by filling 20 cups half full of beer\/ alcoholic beverage of your choice. Then, lay 10 cups in a diamond formation at both ends of the table. Don\u2019t forget to fill 2 cups (1 for each team) with water to rinse the ball in-between throws. Now that your set up is ready, it\u2019s time to divide your mates up into two teams and play a quick round of rock, paper, scissors to decide which team throws first. Ultimately, the goal of the game is for teams to take turns throwing a ping pong ball into the other team\u2019s cups. When the ball lands in a cup you must finish that drink and remove that cup from the table. The first team to sink the ball into all of the other teams\u2019 cups is victorious! (Aka removing all of the opponent\u2019s cups from the table). Some find themselves having an exponential relationship with beer and aiming skills, while others start strong and finish weak. Either way, good luck!<\/p>\n
There are a few variations of this game, such as ‘bouncing’ the ball into a cup means drink x2 cups etc. So, it\u2019s always good to go over the rules with your hostel mates before you start.<\/p>\n

(Aka removing all of the opponent\u2019s cups from the table). Some find themselves having an exponential relationship with beer and aiming skills, while others start strong and finish weak. Either way, good luck!<\/p>\n
There are a few variations of this game, such as ‘bouncing’ the ball into a cup means drink x2 cups etc. So, it\u2019s always good to go over the rules with your hostel mates before you start.<\/p>\n
