Dave Reviews: Likelihoods Among Friends

Drunk, Stoned, or Stupid
PARTY GAME! PARTY GAME! PARTY GAME! PARTY GAME! WOOOOOOOO!!


Drunk, Stoned, or Stupid is a re-title of Who's More Likely To? and still a rip-off of Cards Against Humanity. One player draws a card and reads the trait, things such as "Gets Convinced Strangers Are Celebrities" and "Would Survive In The Woods With A Hatchet". The judge decides which of the other players best matches the description, "aided" by other players convincing them of who it should be. If you get seven cards, you lose.

Which... what? This is designed to be a party game, nothing serious, certainly not serious enough for judges to throw the game by giving people cards when they don't have many. But that's still a trash design. Weirder still, they suggest that if you have new people in the game, play so that seven cards is a win, and that seems like a much better game. Everyone has to argue for themselves as the person who does the ridiculous shit on these cards. I suppose it depends on the group, really.

Either way, the judge can make choices based on who's winning and not on any real game skill, which can be a fun experience but is by design a bad game.

Score: Six beers in the twelve pack (add two for fun if you finished the first six yourself).
