Required Items:

  • A communal drinking cup/bowl (e.g. Scorpion Bowl)
  • A long straw for each player
  • Download a number randomizer app on one player’s phone
  • Alcohol of your choice. We recommend a rum based cocktail.

Goal

The goal of Scorpion King is for each player to take turns attempting to guess which number(0–10) the randomizer will land on.

Instructions:

  • Set the randomizer range to a minimum of 0 and a maximum of 10.
  • Choose one player to start (three or more players is recommended). Once the player decides on a number, press to initiate the randomizer.
  • If the player guesses the number correctly they do not have to drink and can distribute and divide the number to other players to drink in the equivalent seconds.
  • If the player guesses the number incorrectly they must drink the difference between the number they guessed and the actual number in the equivalent seconds.
  • If the player gets a 0 they don’t have to drink.
  • If the player guesses 0 and the randomizer does not land on 0 the player has to drink the difference between 0 and the result in seconds. But, if the player guesses 0 and the randomizer lands on 0 the player can distribute 11 drinking seconds to players.
  • Each player takes one turn and the game continues clockwise to the next player.
  • The game is over when a player finishes the cup/bowl during their turn. This player is now considered The Scorpion King and has to take a shot. In addition, the remaining players are allowed to collectively create a “rule” for The Scorpion King to abide by during the next round.

The rules above are a general framework. If you decide to play and add/modify/delete any rules feel free to tell us what you did below in the comments. Cheers
