Star Wars Drinking Game

Introduction

To play the Star Wars Drinking game, you will need The Star Wars Trilogy on tape (one movie for a short game), an ample supply of your favourite drink. May the force be with you...

How to Play

Basically, every time one of the listed events occurs, everybody takes a sip of their drink. If you are using alcoholic beverages, I really do not recommend emptying a whole glass each time. You will lose consciousness before Vader even says "Do not underestimate the Force". Drink whenever:

  • A gigantic technological marvel explodes in a single blast
  • A good guy wears white or a bad guy wears black
  • A Jedi is much more powerful than he looks
  • A Rebel pilot is of a race other than white
  • A Rebel Pilot says "I've been hit..."
  • A TIE fighter explodes for no reason
  • A woman other than Leia is on screen
  • An elaborately made up alien has no lines
  • An entire planet is described as having one climate
  • An old Jedi starts to ramble about the Force (Vader counts)
  • Anybody insults the Millenium Falcon.
  • Boba Fett talks
  • C-3PO informs us of just how many forms of communication he's familiar with
  • C-3PO loses a body part. (Take two drinks if he is completely dismembered.)
