![]() If you fail to call a color, you’re wrong by default.Ħ = Sentence game is when the card drawer starts to say a sentence, but stops in the middle of it and the person next to him/her has to continue the sentence. The color calling rule only applies to card numbers 1-5. ![]() ![]() So if I called “Black” and I drew a 5 of Clubs or Spades, I could say “John, drink one, Moe drink one, Hilden drinks three.” Now, if you call the card color and are wrong, you have to drink the number of sips indicated by the card. Do it now.ġ-5 = Since you called “Red” or “Black” before you drew the card, if the card color matches what you called, you get to distribute that number of drink sips to whoever you want, or split up that number of drinks across multiple participants. A mini-game ends when somebody has to drink unless it’s Make-a-Rule-related. So whatever card you draw, that is what you have to do. The card number or face card is matched against a pre-determined list of rules or mini-games everybody participates in. One at a time, a player will first call red or black, and then draw a random card. The concept is everybody playing has a drink or beer ready. Or make an organized ring of face-down cards. Put the deck face-down all scattered around like a Go-Fish pile. I made a greatest hits version list of all the fucked up rules I’ve run into over the years.

Maybe you know Kings as Circle of Death, Avalanche, Waterfall, King’s Cup, or even Captain Dickhead. Mind you that all this takes place after spending 2-3 minutes assessing that everybody in the room agrees we’re talking about playing the same game. Of course, whenever we decide to play, nobody has a fucking computer around. The other problem I ran into is that no one person knows 100% of the rules, so almost as a common law, the first 15 minutes after deciding to play is spent piecing together the little bits everybody in the room knows about playing Kings. ![]() Many-a-napkins were used in rewriting these temporary scriptures. If I did anything from playing at a different college to going one town over, I’d have to relearn the rules all over again. I don’t remember any of those games having the same rules as another time. I’ve played a crapload of this game back in the college times. You know that one card game in Final Fantasy VIII where every person played it and every town had its own rule set? Kings is probably the closest possible card game toward representing such a phenomenon. The drinking game with more names than Dracula and more rule variations than Calvinball. ![]()
