Boardgames Buzz: Old Classics, New Drinking Games

If the last time you played Monopoly or Risk was in Junior High you’re missing out. Lately I’ve been turning some of these classics into genuine drinking games. I need your help to build them up and expand them.

Monopoly

The game and all of it’s pieces are used as normal. This ones a slow starter but pics up hard at the end.

Altered Rules:

  • Pass Go – Choose someone to drink

  • Community Chest and Chance – Do what it says. If you pay, you drink, if someone pays you they pay and drink

  • Go to Jail – Drink for every turn you’re in jail

  • Paying Rent – When you land on someone’s property, either buy it or drink. For every house take another drink, for every hotel, take 4 extra drinks, and then pay.

  • Free Parking – Collect your dough, and everyone else drinks.

  • Land on Tennessee, shoot Jack Daniels (if you have it)

The beauty of Monopoly as a drinking game is it comes in so many versions there’s a version for every party. After a while you’ll get bored of watching Beer Pong and you’ll need to create some fun. Everyone knows the basic rules, explain the new fun ones and off you go.

Help me out, what rules would you add?
