Our Favourite Drinking Games For Camping (In-Depth)
I must warn you.
You will have a lot of fun playing these drinking games while camping.
But the potential to get really F*CKED UP is high!
So I ask you to please drink as if your grandma is watching (aka responsibly.)
This game is full of dares, surprises and unexpected circumstances. The person who takes the least amount of drinks (aka the soberest person) will be declared the winner!
We love this game because it’s a great way to break the ice with new people (who don’t know what’s coming).
2. Bucket Ball (Giant Beer Pong)
The original yard pong game!
Play it with drinks (more fun) or completely sober if you like. I say if you miss completely, you drink!
This is a fun camping game that gets you up and moving.
Jenga, for drinkers!
This classic drinking game includes 54 blocks, and 40 contain hilarious drinking rules (odds are, you’re going to be drinking!)
Spend quality time with your favourite group of people while you play this classic game.
4. DRUNK-OPOLY
“The world’s most f*cked up drinking game”. Their words, not mine.
As fans of Monopoly, we absolutely love this fun twist! This game comes out quite often at the lake (be prepared to drink with this one)!
It’s one of the most fun drinking games that we own.
This ridiculous game of dodgeball is so much fun (especially when you’re drinking)!
Clear some space because you’ve never played a card game quite like this one.
I dare you to try and keep a straight face while a burrito is being hurled at you (triple dare)!
6. Good Day Bruce (aka G’Day Bruce)
A classic Australian game!
We’ve never played it, but it seems quite popular, so I had to add it to the list.
If you want to learn how, here is a good article explaining the rules of G’Day Bruce.
7. Oh Fruck!
A super fun game, but you might want to play it sober…ish, as it gets pretty involved, and your reflexes have to be on point.
It still deserves to be here, as it’s a great card game to play while you SIP on some drinks.
A long-lasting cup of beer would be a good choice here.
8. Tipsy Ships
Battleships meet alcohol, a dream come true!
It’s also a twist on the classic game of beer pong.
Fill your cups with your favourite bevies for the ultimate beer pong battle.
Deemed “the Monopoly of drinking games”, this is a MUST-BUY!
The object of the game is to make your way around the board and fill your miniature 6-pack of beer (I mean COME ON!!)
This is one of my FAVOURITE camping drinking games ever.
10. Drunken Artist (aka Tipsy Artist)
Aka Boozy Pictionary (I’d probably be better at this than the original)!
It’s exactly the same, except that the artist has to take a sip every 20 seconds it takes for someone to guess the word.
For example, if it takes 1 minute for someone to guess right, you have to take 3 sips.
This is a great game for large groups of people to play, but all you really need is two teams and a drawing pad or piece of paper.
11. Bottle Bash
If you’re looking for drinking games to play that will get you up and moving, Bottle Bash is your game.
It’s similar to frisbee golf and can be turned into a drinking game by making your own rules.
I say, if I catch your frisbee, you drink! This is a great outdoor drinking game that you can play with a number of people.
12. Giant Tower
It’s giant Jenga with shots and ridiculous requests thrown in, like “play the rest of the game with T-Rex arms!”
I love GIANT things, don’t you?
Bring this tipsy tower game on your next camping trip for hours of entertainment!
13. Flip Cup Frenzy
Flip Cup, with a twist.
The goal is to flip your cup faster than your opponents so you can move the shot glass closer to them. Once it reaches them, they drink!
You’ll want to be on the right side of the table for this one.
14. Truth or Drink
The concept is pretty simple.
You’ll take a card, read it out loud, and you can either answer truthfully or keep your secrets to yourself and take a sip.
This one is for open-minded peeps who don’t mind sharing a few things.
It’s also a fun way to get to know the entire group.
It’s beer pong, but GIANT!
If you love the classic ping pong ball drinking game, you’ll love this one even more because it’s easier to hit a GIANT red solo cup than a small one.
Take this popular drinking game to the next level with one of the best drinking games.
There’s no need to read instructions for this classic game.
Simply pull a card, read it aloud and do what it says. To win, you’ll need to be quicker, smarter and thirstier than the rest!
Everyone at the picnic table is guaranteed to have a great time and will probably want to buy it for themselves.
17. The Alphabet Game
Another popular camping drinking game that needs mentioning.
The goal of the alphabet drinking game is to taste a drink that starts with every letter of the alphabet.
For example, Arnold Palmer all the way to a Zombie Punch.
Sounds dangerous! WHO’S IN?
18. Tipsy Cornhole
It sounds dirty, and I’m here for it!
It’s played like normal cornhole, but there are drinking prompts to follow (depending on where you land on the board).
Everyone might drink, or you may have to take a big gulp of your poison of choice ALONE!
19. Dizzy Race (aka Dizzy Bat)
You all know what this is, and it makes me sick just thinking about it!
For those that are unsure, here’s the gist: chug a full cup of beer, place your forehead on a bat, spin and run until you fall on your face and throw up!
The first person (if anyone) to cross the finish line wins.
It’s not my game of choice (hello, motion sickness), but watching others play is hilarious!
20. Coasterz
You’ll have a flipping good time with this classic party game.
With a drink of your choice in hand, you’ll flip to see who has to take a drink.
As the game moves fast, you will learn to take small sips (instead of big gulps!)
21. Dunzo
It’s UNO, with shots!
The first player to 500 points wins, but only if they remember to say “DUNZO“!
Things tend to get a bit fuzzy after a round of this addicting game.
