Fake News: the drinking game

The game of broken spirits.

Needed: deck of cards

Players: 2 -

Object of the game: make three consecutive correct guesses during your turn

Fake News is a turn based drinking game similar to f-the-dealer in that the dealer holds the deck of cards and takes a drink every time a player guesses correctly.

The game begins by shuffling a deck of playing cards and placing 16 cards face up in the center of a playing surface (4 x 4 square). The individual to the immediate left of the dealer goes first and proceeds clockwise. During their turn, a player selects any card face up card and guesses higher or lower than the face up number. The dealer takes the top card from the deck and places it face up on the selected card. The player must guess correctly three times in a row to pass the turn to the next player; however, if they guess wrong, then the dealer yells fake news at them, they must drink the amount of cards in that individual stack, and their turn starts over. When the dealer runs out of cards, the grid is reduced by the dealer by selecting a row or column, and shuffling the cards in that row or column to form a new deck. The game ends with all 52 playing cards on a single stack.

Special notes: *matching numbers -- a king on a king -- drinks double. *mueller joker: player gets to look at the top two cards in the deck *putin joker: player gets to make a rule, e.g. kings count as twos. *dealer passes the deck when the deck runs out and finishes their drink
