How to Play:
Setup: Grab a deck of cards and a sturdy bottle of your favorite drink acting as the centerpiece!
1. Form a circle on the table with the cards face down, touching each other around the bottle
2. The game starts with the oldest player taking the first turn
3. On a player's turn, they pick a card from the circle and follow the action listed on it
(All card actions / effects are explained at bottom of the page)
4. After completing the action, place the card on top of the bottle, slowly creating a tall stack of cards
5. If someone knocks over the stack of cards or breaks the circle around the bottle while picking a card, they have to chug from the center bottle!
Ending: Once all cards from the circle have been drawn, the game ends!
