How to Play the Mario Party Superstars Drinking Game
This game is highly adaptable. You can adjust the rules based on your group's tolerance and preferred level of chaos. The core principle is to assign drinking penalties to specific in-game events. Here are some suggestions:
Basic Rules:
- Choose your drink: Select your beverage of choice – beer, wine, mixed drinks, or even just water (for the designated drivers!).
- Set your sip size: Decide whether you'll take sips, gulps, or full shots for each event. Start small and adjust as needed.
- Agree on the rules: Before starting, everyone involved should agree upon the rules outlined below. This ensures a fair and fun experience for everyone.
Event-Based Drinking Rules:
These rules can be customized to suit your group's preferences and risk tolerance. The key is to keep it balanced and fun!
- Landing on a Bowser space: Take a sip. If Bowser steals your stars, take a double sip (or gulp!).
- Losing a mini-game: Take a sip. The more dramatically you lose, the bigger the sip.
- Winning a mini-game: Make everyone else take a sip. You're the reigning champion!
- Getting a Star: Give a toast and take a sip.
- Getting Boo'd: Take a sip. If you lose a star to Boo, take a double.
- Using an item effectively: Choose another player to take a sip.
- Using an item ineffectively: Take a sip.
- Landing on a Chance Time space: Everyone takes a sip.
- Rolling a 10: Give a toast and have everyone take a sip.
- Rolling a 1: Take a sip. Lady Luck wasn't on your side.
- Getting hit by a Chain Chomp: Everyone takes a sip.
- Landing on the same space as another player: Both players take a sip.
Advanced Rules (For the truly daring):
- Specific mini-game losses/wins: Assign specific drinks to winning or losing certain mini-games. For example, losing at "Shy Guy Says" could result in a larger penalty.
- Character-based penalties: Assign penalties based on which character you choose. Losing with Bowser could mean a bigger penalty than losing with Peach.
- Custom Events: Create your own unique rules based on inside jokes or recurring situations during your gameplay.
