Drug Dealer
Quite a simple game actually, with a low-mid boot factor.
This is a game to play while doing other things at a party. To play the game you
need one playing card for each participant. You always need one King and one
Ace, and a variety of numbered cards; some low, some mid, some high, but just
one card per player.
The cards are dealt face down-- take a quick peek. The person who gets the King
is the cop, the person who gets the ace is the drug dealer and everyone else are
bystanders.
It is the drug dealers job to very, VERY discreetly wink at another player. This
person will eventually say, "the deal has been made". At this time,
the cop identifies him/herself and tries to figure out who the dealer is. The
cop chooses a player; if wrong the cop drinks the number shown on the card and
then chooses
again. If wrong again, he drinks the number on that card. When the cop chooses
correctly, the drug dealer drinks the NUMBER OF CARDS remaining, NOT the total
of the numbers on the cards.
After that, the cards are redealt and the game goes on.
This is a great game when people don't feel like playing a game because it's the
regular socializing that helps disguise any winks and keeps the cop on his/her
toes. However, it helps a lot if the players do sit in a circle while playing
and not spread around a room.
Obviously if you want to increase the boot factor, play with high numbered
cards.
