Four Corners Drinking Game

Four King's playing cards placed around a cup of alcohol
Four Corners Drinking Game Setup

The four corners drinking game is an adult version of a childhood classic game. If you didn’t play four corners as a child, the rules are straightforward. One person would stand in the middle of the room blindfolded. All the children would choose a corner to stand in. The person in the middle calls out a corner; anyone in this corner is eliminated. This repeats until there is one person left. Just like the childhood game, this drinking game is MUCH better if you have a larger group. In fact, there is no limit to how many people can play this game—the more, the merrier. If you have only a few people, you should try a different game like Mushroom Cup.
