Party Activities for an Iconic World of Tanks Gathering
Flunky Ball, also known as Flunkyball or Thrones, is a lively outdoor party game that combines drinking, accuracy, and teamwork. This popular game is typically played with two teams competing to drink beverages while attempting to knock over a central bottle with a ball.
Here's how to play Flunky Ball:
- Two teams stand opposite each other, with each player having a drink (usually beer) and a central empty plastic bottle placed on the ground between them.
- One team tries to throw a ball (usually a tennis ball) to knock over the central bottle.
- When the bottle is knocked down, the opposing team must stop drinking immediately and retrieve and set the bottle back up as quickly as possible.
- The team that knocked over the bottle can continue drinking until the bottle is set back upright and caught by the opposing team.
- Play continues back and forth until one team finishes their drinks.
- The first team to finish all their drinks wins.
Flunky Ball requires a balance of drinking speed, throwing accuracy, and team coordination. Regional or group preferences may lead to variations in the rules, but these are the core elements of the game.
Another popular party game is Jenga, which involves a tower of wooden blocks, with each block labeled with a task. Players take turns pulling a block from the tower, performing the task, and replacing it. If the Jenga tower falls, the game ends.
"Never Have I Ever" is a party game similar to Truth or Dare, requiring a few friends and a drink. In this game, players must drink if they have not done something stated by another player. Honesty is crucial for an enjoyable game.
The game Kings Cup involves drinking, making up rules, and performing tasks based on drawn cards. The King card in Kings Cup requires players to pour their drink into a shared cup, and the fourth player to draw it finishes the Kings Cup.
For those looking for a digital twist on party games, the Piccolo app offers different game modes such as Warm-up Mode, Naughty Mode, and Crazy Mode. The app requires installation on a phone, entering player names, and choosing a game mode.
Whether you prefer traditional games like Flunky Ball or Jenga, or digital game apps like Piccolo, party games are a fun way to socialize and have a good time with friends.
Enjoying an outdoor-living lifestyle, one could mix Flunky Ball with home-and-garden activities by hosting a backyard party featuring various games. In this setup, home-and-garden decorations could serve as the Jenga tower where players attempt tasks from pulling out a plant tag to moving garden furniture.
