Cops and Robbers Drinking Game
If you are planning on throwing a cops and robbers themed party, you want to make sure that you have a fun drinking game to play to pass the time. As it happens, there IS one that actually fits the theme perfectly… the cops and robbers drinking card game!
***below-paragraph-1.shtml***SETUP
You will need some drinks, a deck of playing cards, and at least 5 people to start. Pull out as many cards out of the deck as you have players. If you have ten people playing the card game, pull out ten cards, making sure that you have a King and an Ace in the new card selection, and the rest can be numbered cards. Shuffle the cards and give each person a card. The person with the Ace is the robber; the person with the King is the cop.
GAME RULES
The goal of the Cops and Robbers game is to have fun, get drunk and to guess who the robber is. It is the job of the cop to catch the robber, so they have to be on high alert once the cards are dealt. While everyone is sitting at the table looking at one another, the robber will slyly wink at someone in the group. The person that got winked at will proclaim "The deal has been made" (or anything for that matter as long as it is a designated phrase). The cop knows that the person who made the claim is not the robber. The cop has to guess who is - who is the person that winked.
When the cop is ready to make his guess, he will lay his card down to show he is the cop and he will make his guess. The person who he guesses is the robber must lay his card down. If the cop guessed right, the robber has to finish their drink. If the cop is wrong though, the cop has to take as many drinks as the number on the card shows. This continues until the robber is caught, or until the robber is the last one left, in which case, the cop again has to drink.
Many people will add different variations to this game, such as if the robber accidentally winks at the cop, the robber has to take shots, or slam their beer, or something of that nature. Once the cop is finally able to catch the robber, the cards are taken back, shuffled and dealt again. This is a drinking game that you and all your friends can surely have a lot of fun with, especially the sly devils in your group.
