Your speed is required!
Have you ever heard of the drinking game "Card Drinking"? This drinking game not only promises tons of fun, but also tests your speed and drinking ability in the most hilarious way. It's all about finishing your drink as quickly as possible. In this blog post, we'll walk you through the basics of this exciting game and give you tips on how to make your rounds even more exciting.

What you need to play
You hardly need any equipment to drink cards:
- A deck of 52 cards (a Skat deck of 32 cards also works)
- at least 2 players
Just the rules of the game and then we can get started!
Gameplay
Designate a player to shuffle the cards and deal one card to each player. Each player is then assigned a symbol (♠️♥️♣️♦️).
The dealer then draws one card at a time from the deck and holds it up for a few seconds for every player to see. While the dealer holds the card up, all players with the symbol may drink.
The player who finishes his drink first wins.
Goal
The goal of the game is to empty your drink as quickly as possible!
Further variations
Of course, you can make the drinking game even more interesting with new rules and variations. For example, you could give the king, queen, or ace an additional meaning. For example, the ace card could cause the holder of that card to miss a turn if it appears as an ace. Perhaps you could also stipulate that all players must drink together if a heart card is played, or that everyone must take an extra drink if a pair of cards is played.
Here you can be inventive 😉
If you have a larger group of friends, you can also turn "Card Blast" into a tournament mode. Set up a scoring system where the winners of each round collect points, and at the end of the night, a "Card Blast" champion is crowned.
