What happens in case of a tie?

Tied players roll again in a sudden death round. The new lowest roll takes the penalty.

Can I use dice with more than six sides?

Yes, but make sure all players use the same type of dice. Higher-sided dice can make the rolls more unpredictable.

What’s the penalty for losing?

The loser of the final round finishes their drink or takes an agreed-upon penalty, such as completing a dare.

How do you assign drinks to others?

When your roll is the lowest, choose another player and tell them how many sips or gulps they have to take, based on the group's agreed rules.
