We asked Nudgers one question: What’s your go-to game to play with a group (boozy or not)? Below are our faves from over 8,000 submissions (thank you!!!). We avoided games everyone knows (sorry beer pong) and made some minor edits for clarity.
FLYING SOLO
Players pair up and stand across from each other on the table. One side starts as "flyers" and the other side as catchers. The flyers flip their cups, similarly to flip cup, with the goal being that their partner on the opposite side of the table catches the cup in their own. The first pair to catch their cup wins, and the last pair is eliminated. The elimination continues until only one pair is left. Flyers and catchers switch roles each round.

3 MAN
First, determine the 3-Man: the first person to roll a three (on EITHER die - so a roll of 8 made up of a 5+3 counts, but a 2+1=3 doesn't) is the first 3-Man. Every time someone rolls a 3, 3-Man has to drink. If you roll a 7, the person to your left drinks. If you roll a 9, the person to your right drinks. If 3-Man rolls a 3, they are freed and the next person to roll a 3 is the new 3-Man. If you roll doubles, you pick someone, they roll, and then they have to drink for double however many seconds they rolled (i.e. roll a 6 and drink for 12 seconds, etc.) If you roll a double when challenged to doubles, it uno reverses back to the person who picked you.

DRINK TO THAT
Write down a bunch of random words on slips of paper, and put them into a bowl. In another bowl, put slips of paper with truths or dares written on them. The first person draws a slip from the first bowl (of words). Count how many times that word is said in a verse of the next song on the playlist. Chug for that number of seconds. If the word is not said, the player who drew the word has to pull from the truth or dare bowl and either fulfill it or take a shot.
