Are you a person who enjoys booze and loves board games? Check out some of the best drinking board games that are gay-friendly.
The board game industry is far from dead. I remember playing great and easy board games for adults like Scrabble and Chess which are still popular today. There are also many good board games for drinking like Drunken Tower and Drink-A-Palooza. A drinking board game is a game that involves alcohol or beer. If I’m at a party or social gathering and around the right group of people I won’t mind playing a drinking board game because they spill the tea and will show people’s true personalities. For this blog post, I’ll list some fun drinking board games.
Best gay friendly drinking board games
1. Drink-A-Palooza
I remember in college most of the drinking games that I played were flip cup or beer pong in bars and random spots. These games were cool but sometimes simple and repetitive. Well, Drink-A-Palooza is far from both. Just looking at the game you can see how entertaining it is. The board is very colorful and almost resembles the Monopoly game. Drink-A-Palooza is a combination of flip cup, beer pong, kings cup, and quarters. Up to 12 people can play the game at 1 time. The board makes the game look complicated but it’s pretty simple. The way the game works is that you roll the dice and that you play the mini-game you land on. So if you’re not totally wasted you’ll be able to follow the rules.
2. Drunken Tower
Drunken Tower is Jenga with alcohol involved. Jenga is such a simple game but very fun. In Jenga, there’s a tower of wooden blocks and each player has to remove blocks from the tower without making the tower fall. There is only a loser who is the person that makes the tower fall. The only difference with Drunk Tower is that once you remove a block you have to follow the command written on the block. The tea is that you have to be coordinated in order to remove the blocks.
3. Do or Drink
This game is played just as the title says. This is one of the most popular drinking games. It definitely is crazy and spills a lot of tea. The way the game is played is that a person picks a card and does the challenge on the card or takes a shot. Some of the challenges are crazy. There’s one that tells you to either pee in a sink, take 2 shots, or quit playing. The game comes in different expansion packs for social media users, singles, couples, and other groups of people.
4. Cards Against Humanity
This is another card game that can get a little ratchet. This is not necessarily a drinking game but you can play with alcohol. The way this game works a player picks a card and fills in the blank for a card. For instance, there is a card that reads, “I’m high on……….”. This brings an element of surprise to even some shy persons.
5. Black-owned
Black-owned is a drinking game created by a black person. I love the concept of this game because most board games are catered to mainstream culture. Black-owned creates a sense of pride and unity among African Americans. It’s a trivia game and the way it works is that a person picks a card and if there’s a question on the card it has to be answered. There are some cards that will tell you just to drink. The original game covers black shows and movies from the 80s and 90s like Martin and Friday. There is also an expansion pack for couples.
6. Sotally Sober
The name of this game alone would entice many adults to try this game. At least in my opinion. If you’re a shy person get prepared to show your true colors. There are different color decks that either tell you to perform a hidden trick, perform a certain talent, or do something silly. For instance, there’s a card that tells you to have a staring contest with someone. If you lose or refuse a challenge you have to drink. This game is definitely a crowd pleaser and will have you feeling lit even before the game is over.
7. Drunk Stoned or Stupid
This is another game that spills the tea. Actually, it spills a lot of tea. This is a game you can play with 4 or more players. The way the rules work is that a player draws a card that asks you to say who’s most likely to do a certain action. For instance, There’s a card that says, “Is obsessed with their butt”. So you can just imagine the laughs and tea it will bring.
8. Shot glass roulette
I’m a simple person. So playing a game like this is very delightful. Russian roulette is a popular casino game that even as a young child I knew how to play. The way the original game works is that there’s a board with numbers. The referee rolls a dice and a player best on a number. If the dice lands on that number the player score points. The shots glass roulette works in that you spin the dial and whatever number you land is the shot glass you have to drink. If you’re a hardcore drinker this is the game for you since it doesn’t require any thinking.
9. Cock and tails
You can tell by the name that this is an adult game. First, I love the cute box artwork. Of all the adult games on this list, Cock and tails are the most LGBTQ-friendly. This game makes a lot of references to queer culture like being on Prep and queer culture slang. If you are a gay person and among other gay persons this is the perfect game to play.
10. The Queer Agenda
This is another exclusive LGBT party game. Just the name tells it all. There are cards that refer to Broadway musicals RuPaul’s Drag race, and queer culture. Now, I’m going to be honest some of the cards can be a little rude. Like there are cards that say to slap someone and say something that makes a person unf@ckable. So, just be cautious because this game can lead to fights if you’re playing with people you’re unfamiliar with.
Wrap
Games are a fun way to bring people together whether it be children or adults. The drinking board games will do the same. Sotally sober and Do or Drink will show sides of people that will cause some exciting and humorous moments. Just make sure you’re around mature adults and people you are comfortable with since alcohol can impair people’s judgment. For those who don’t like to drink you can even play these games without alcohol. But as I just said
