About this deal
There are no strict rules to Drinking 30 Seconds, but start off with fines for every time a teammate accidentally says the word on the card before the time is up, and every time someone fails to get the answer. One of the few card-drinking games that require you to either text or drink, this one could get messy! It's an easy and so much fun way to get conversations started between people about all kinds of topics, from funny stories to deep ones. When the game starts, each player has exactly 1 minute to pour as much of the drink as they can into the empty cup using only a spoon. You have to be using Houseparty on mobile to play, but the rules work just the same – use questions to guess the famous person you’ve been given.
If you splash out and download other levels like 'Getting Crazy' and 'Caliente', things get a bit more exciting. Be prepared to do some pretty nerve-racking things, as the activities in this game aren’t for the faint of heart. We all know this one, and it’s better to do it with people you don’t know inside out for best results. Don’t ask leading questions but simple ones, if you like, you can make matters a little more detailed. They have to guess if the first card is red or black, then if the second card is higher or lower than the first, then if the third card is in between the first two cards or not, and finally they have to guess the suit of the fourth card.Once everyone has their role, it’s up to the Asshole to sort out the Jokers, shuffle the deck carefully and deal out the cards.
This is an opportunity for people of the drinking age of 21 and higher to relax and revel in hilarious and naughty secrets while getting to know their friends and acquaintances.
This means if the odds aren't in your favour, you could be drinking for up to 20 seconds (or even longer for the higher-value cards).
