No questions, no cards and no thinking: you roll, check the side and it's on someone. These are the full rules, exactly how the phone plays them (and how you can play them with a real die).
Add 2 to 12 players, typing the names in the order you're sitting: turns follow that list, and two sides depend on who's next to you. Everyone has their own drink, water or soda.
Whoever is first on the list starts with the crown, and their name stays at the top of the screen the whole game. Nobody has to pass it by hand: it moves on its own with the 3.
Tap the die or the Roll the die button. It tumbles for a second and lands on a number from 1 to 6 with its order; the table under the die highlights which side came up.
1 · You: whoever rolled drinks. 2 · Right: the person on your right drinks, the next one on the list. 4 · Left: the person on your left drinks, the previous one on the list.
Whoever has the crown drinks, even if it's you, and then the crown goes to whoever rolled. If you already had it, you drink and keep it.
5 · Pick: point at someone and they drink. 6 · Everyone: the whole group drinks, with a sip, some water or just a clink of glasses.
On a 1, 2, 3 or 4, the result shows who it's on, by name, and on a 3, who gets the crown if it changes hands. No arguing about who was on whose right.
Once the side has been played, tap Done and the die passes to the next person on the list. There are no points and no set ending: agree on a number of laps or stop whenever the group wants, and tap Exit to see the summary.
Every “drink” means a sip (or water), never a big gulp or a whole glass, and it can be swapped for water or a dare, no explanation needed. Nobody has to drink.
Every number on the die has its own order. With this table you can also play with a real die: roll it, find the number and do what it says.

From 1 to 6, in the same order as in the game.
Two dice, totals, doubles and a Three Man who drinks every time a 3 comes up. For when one die isn't enough.
Drinking Dice is a game with a single die where each side decides who takes the sip: you, the person on your right, the person on your left, whoever has the crown, someone you pick or everyone. There are no questions to read and no rules to memorize, so it's perfect to kick off a pregame or to keep going in the background while the conversation flows.
The only special piece is the crown. One player holds it, they drink when a 3 comes up, and at that moment it moves to whoever rolled. That's why nobody keeps it for long, and every 3 brings a little suspense: who does it land on, and who ends up with it?
You play with 2 to 12 people and one phone that gets passed from hand to hand. And it's not a shots game: here every “drink” is a sip (or water), and it never takes more than that.
All you need is a regular six-sided die, the table on this page and any object to use as the crown: a cap, a bottle cap, a coaster. The crown starts with whoever rolls first, and the die passes to the person on the right, just like turns on the phone.
The rules are the same as on the phone: 1 is for the roller, 2 for the person on their right, 3 for whoever has the crown (who then hands it to the roller), 4 for the person on their left, on a 5 you pick, and on a 6 everyone drinks. With a real die, the only thing to keep track of is who's on each side, because no screen tells you.
If you've got two dice at home, you might like Three Man better: the classic dice drinking game with totals, doubles and a title nobody wants. And if you'd rather have dares than sips, Dare Dice has a type of dare on each side.
The fun is all in the pace: roll fast, play the side and pass the phone without long pauses. It's pure luck, so there's no strategy to think about; the best part is the group's reaction when a 3 or a 6 comes up.
On a 5, spread it around: picking the same person every time stops being funny fast. And if someone gets hit several times in a row, the group can swap their next one for a dare or water, no questions asked.
For the night to end well, have water on the table from the start and keep the sips small. Whoever's playing with soda plays exactly the same as everyone else.
House rules: the crown holder gets to make one toast per lap, a 6 means everyone clinks glasses instead of drinking, or on a 5 you have to pick someone who hasn't had a sip yet that lap.
No alcohol: swap every sip for a point and have whoever racks up the most tell a story at the end, or use the dares from Dare Dice instead of sips.
Everyone on their own phone or on a video call: create a room and you'll all see the die, the result and the crown on your own screen. When you're far apart there's no table, but that's fine: “right” is the next person on the list, “left” is the previous one and the screen always shows the name.
It's the game for the first few minutes of a pregame, when people are still showing up or nobody wants to think too hard: you can explain it in one sentence, and late arrivals can join the next game. It also works well in the background, between conversations.
When you want something with more to it, move on to Three Man to stick with dice, to the Dare Wheel for dares and surprises, or to Dare Dice so every roll brings something to do.
Taking turns, each player rolls the die and the side that comes up says who takes a sip (or water): the roller, their neighbors, whoever has the crown, someone they pick or everyone. Then the turn passes to the next person on the list.
1 · You: A sip (or water) for whoever rolled the die. 2 · Right: A sip (or water) for the person on your right. 3 · Crown: A sip (or water) for whoever wears the crown. 4 · Left: A sip (or water) for the person on your left. 5 · Pick: Pick someone: a sip (or water) for them. 6 · Everyone: Everybody drinks! A sip, some water or just a clink of glasses.
It starts with the first player on the list. When someone rolls a 3, whoever has the crown drinks and the crown goes to whoever rolled. The game moves it automatically and always shows who has it.
You drink, a sip (or water), and keep the crown until someone else rolls a 3.
From 2 to 12. With two, your neighbor on the left and on the right is the same person: the other player.
Yes. All you need is a regular six-sided die, the table of sides on this page and any object to use as the crown.
Three Man is played with two dice, totals and doubles, and has more rules to remember. Drinking Dice uses just one, and each side tells you straight away who drinks.
In Dare Dice each side is a type of dare you have to do. In Drinking Dice there are no dares: each side points to who takes the sip (or water).
There's no set ending: a game usually lasts 10–25 min. Agree on a number of laps or stop whenever the group wants.
No. Every sip can be swapped for water, soda or a dare, and nobody has to drink. This site is for adults only (18+ and of legal drinking age where you live).
Yes. Create a room, share the link and you'll all see the die and the crown on your own screen, in the same room or on a video call.
