Looking for a fun adult game to play at a party or just between friends?

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • Must Be Legal Drinking Age
  • Quarter
  • Shot Glass
  • Alcohol (that you enjoying drinking as shots)
  • A good flat table
  • 2 or more people
  • Do not drive home drunk
  1. Step 1

    This is a very easy and enjoyable game that can be played in any adult gathering with 2 or more people.

  2. Step 2
     

    You need your quarter, a shot glass and a bottle of your favorite drink that you and your company will like, wine, vodka, Souther Comfort or Brandy.

  3. Step 3
     

    The object of this game is to bounce a quarter on the table and into the shot glass.

  4. Step 4

    First pour your choice of liquor into the shot glass.

  5. Step 5

    Pick who will go first, its really does not matter because this game takes a little skill. Bounce the quarter on the table so that it will bounce up and fall into the shot glass.

  6. Step 6

    If you succeed then you can choose any one to take a shot drink from that glass. If you fail pass the quarter to the person next to you and he or she gets to try.

  7. Step 7

    Here is some twists that makes it interesting! If the drinker drinks the shot and catches the quarter in his/her lips, he/she gets to take revenge. She can now try to make the quarter shot and make you drink also. If she misses nothing happens.

  8. Step 8

    You keep your turn as long as you are making the quarter shot. If you miss you may ask for "second chance". You get a "second chance" but if you miss again then you must take a shot and pass the quarter.

  9. Step 9

    If you make 3 shots in a row (a little hard to do) you can make a rule or make a demand. You can make a rule for the recipient only or for everyone which includes you, must follow. Brake the rule means take a drink no exception! Make a demand can be simple things that the recipient of the drink shot must do.

  10. Step 10

    As with any game enjoy with moderation. This is a consenting adult game and should not be treated as an encouragement to drink and drive. This is only an explanation of how to play the game quarters. Have fun!

Tips & Warnings
  • take the game lightly
  • drink in moderation
  • do not drink and drive
  • not an encouragement to drink
  • have fun
  • can be addictive and funny
