What is Drunk Jenga?
Drunk Jenga is a drinking game that takes the classic game Jenga and adds a booze-y twist to it which makes the game a little more challenging. This is a great drinking game to play at parties and see who truly is a Jenga master.
Did you know that Drunk Jenga is also known as Tipsy Tower?!
The Tipsy Tower Drinking Game is just like Jenga, but the drinking rules come already on the blocks.
How to Play the Drunk Jenga Drinking Game
What You’ll Need to Play Drinking Jenga:
-
Jenga Blocks
-
A Sharpie
-
Beer (or your drink of choice)
Drunk Jenga Drinking Game Setup:
- Write rules on the Jenga blocks: Drunk Jenga is mostly like regular Jenga but with a twist! To start, take your Jenga pieces and write a different rule, dare, game etc. on each block.
- Set up Jenga blocks: After all your Jenga pieces have a different rule on them,
set your blocks up just like regular Jenga. Put down 3 blocks side-by-side, then stack 3 more blocks on top of that row but the opposite way. Continue this pattern until you’ve used up all your Jenga blocks and have created a tall Jenga tower.
