The guide to drinking games | Lifestyle

If there's one thing all university students are good at, it's drinking games. There are so many different games out there, often they change name from uni to uni but they tend to have the same rules, I love the different games that people play as it's a lot more fun than just drinking on your own. Most games just involve a simple pack of cards which is definitely worth having in your flat, so if you don't have any, go invest! I thought today I would share with you some drinking games which are always worth playing with your friends!

Cards Against Humanity: 
I actually found out about this game when I was round my families house at Christmas and played with my Grandma who had no idea what the game entailed. I love the idea behind the game despite it being so messed up! To those of you who don't know, the game involves having 7 cards and then everyone takes it in turns to be the card tsar and reads out a statement or a question and then you have to pick out of your cards which you think fits best. Now the fun part, half of the cards don't even make sense, they include a lot of rude and offensive statements and if you're easily offended it's probably not the game for you, but it's a lot of fun and worth an investment.

Never Have I Ever: 
This one is a great game for getting to know people better, and it's as simple as going round in a circle and someone asks a question starting with 'never have I ever...' and names something, and if you have done that thing you drink. It's an easy and none effort required way to get drunk, and fast.

Ring Of Fire:
This game involves a bit more explaining but it basically involves a deck of cards and a pint glass and it ends with the person who gets the last king in the pack drinking the 'dirty pint' which is made up of drinks placed in the pint glass throughout the game. As there are many different card meanings I thought I would leave this link here to tell you what each card means and how to play.

Ride The Bus:
Another more complicated came to explain with another set of rules but well worth learning them as it's a hilarious game which involves you being very drunk if you're unlucky in this game! The basics of this game are that it involves four rounds and you are asked a series of questions based on the cards e.g. higher or lower and if you're wrong you drink.
