Drinking game Jenga

Everyone has known Jenga since childhood as a skillful and often frustrating community game. Admittedly, the game gets boring quickly and hasn't been played in years. To breathe new life into this old game, we have come up with a drinking game. Here you can find out how you can conjure up a Jenga drinking game from the family-friendly parlor game that will make every evening a success.

If you don't feel like playing a self-made Jenga drinking game because you want to start playing right away, you'll find the perfect game with us, our ingenious mugs.

If you don't know Jenga yet, here are the key facts again:

  • The word "Jenga" comes from Swahili, the language most commonly spoken in East Africa, and means something like "to build".
  • The game was invented and first published in Great Britain in 1983, found its way to the German market in 1989 and has been one of the most well-known community games ever since
  • The game can be played with two people
  • The game consists of approx. 60 individual rectangular wooden blocks, three of which are always placed next to each other, followed by three more blocks at a 90 degree angle, etc., until you finally have 20 layers
  • Then, in turn, players try to remove a stone from the tower. Since this is a game of skill, this can only be done with one hand and of course without the use of auxiliary materials
  • When this is done, the stone is placed on top of the tower and it is the next player's turn. The player who knocks down the tower loses the game

Jenga Drinking Game - What Makes It a Must-Play?

Jenga as a drinking game is perfect for fun pre-glows or game nights to get everyone in the mood for the night ahead. Everyone gets to the right level and eventually (you have to decide whether that's a good thing or not) beyond that. The drinking game is suitable for larger as well as smaller groups and is therefore always the perfect choice. Of course, as the number of players increases, it also becomes trickier for the players whose turn it is last. The Jenga tower is more wobbly, making it harder to get individual bricks out without the tower falling over. Malicious joy and heated discussions are inevitable.

The Jenga drinking game can be easily customized and gives you the chance to incorporate funny, absurd or even erotic tasks. This is precisely why it is particularly popular with students and young adults.

The Jenga drinking game, like our beloved Beer Pong, requires a lot of skill. As a result, playing the game tends to get a little more heated than other drinking games, which of course makes you much more ambitious than playing regular drinking games. As is well known, the matter of skill is even more difficult when drunk, but the rules are easy to remember even when the level rises.

And finally ... The perfect drinking game for pre-glow nights where there's no beer pong table!

The purchased variant

Let's start with the simplest version of the drinking game. Of course you can buy the ready-made games from Amazon or toy stores, but we do not recommend this. Of course you can also have a fun game night with the classic version. However, a Jenga drinking game, in which your self-imagined tasks are tailored to the group, lifts the mood by far. In addition, the finished Jenga towers often contain rather boring tasks. "Have a sip" or "empty your drink on Ex" are typical tasks in conventional Jenga drinking games, which are often sold at relatively high prices.
Conclusion: We would definitely advise against ready-made Jenga drinking game towers. They are more expensive, unimaginative and very quickly lose their appeal.

Do it Yourself

As we mentioned before, a homemade Jenga drinking game is our way to go. Since you have space for up to 60 different tasks, we advise you to set up a few categories for yourself and then integrate them into the drinking game to the same extent. Depending on your preference, some stones can also contain tasks that do not require alcohol consumption. Ultimately, it is entirely up to you how you design the Jenga drinking game.
Here are our categories and some examples:

Classic drinking game tasks

  • Have a sip
  • Share a sip
  • All the girls take a sip
  • All the boys take a sip
  • All denim wearers drink.
  • Your left/right neighbor is drinking
  • The youngest/eldest drinks
  • The tallest/smallest drinks
  • All singles/taken drink
  • Everyone drinks
  • Drink your glass to ex
  • Drink your right/left neighbor's glass on Ex.

competition tasks

  • Do 10 push-ups. If you can't, then drink!
  • Play rock, paper, scissors against someone. Loser: drinks
  • Play arm wrestling with the person on your left/right. Loser: drink
  • Do a handstand. Fail: drink
  • Race against left/right partner. Loser: drink
  • Made an eye contact duel. Who looked away first: drink
  • Exe Glas against your right/left partner for a time. Loser: drink the shot chosen by the winner

community games

  • I am packing my suitcase":. Whoever makes a mistake first has to drink
  • Rhyming: rhymes are said in turn. If you can't think of anything, you have to drink
  • Brand names: You take turns naming brands on a topic such as beer. If you can't think of anything else, drink
  • Waterfall: everyone starts drinking. You may only stop as soon as your right-hand partner has stopped

erotic tasks

  • Give a teammate a lap dance
  • Tell me about your most embarrassing sex story
  • Imitate an orgasm
  • Recreate your favorite exposure with a teammate
  • Have dirty talk with a partner
  • Twerk for 30 seconds

permanent tasks
These count until someone else draws such a task. Anyone who violates this must drink.

  • It may only be drunk with the weaker hand.
  • First names are no longer allowed.
  • Questionmaster: If you don't answer a question with a counter question, you have to drink.
  • Player is now only allowed to speak with a foreign accent
Those were our suggestions for the Jenga drinking game, but of course there are no limits to your creativity. When you have decided on tasks, use a felt-tip pen and write them on the wooden blocks. Depending on how much effort you want to put into it, you can also decorate the stones.

Of course, decorating makes the Jenga drinking game even more individual. So how about a homemade Jenga drinking game and a voucher as a birthday present for your best friend? Hopefully our Jenga drinking game tips have quenched your thirst for it. For the shot fans among you, we also have one perfect game, please have a look.

So find your creative side and plan the next game night!
