Setup
Have everyone sit or stand in a circle or around a table. Explain to them the rules of the game below.
How to Play
Everyone puts their heads down into their hand/arms so they can't see anything and collectively count down from three “3-2-1” aloud. Then everyone sits up and locks eye contact with someone else in the circle immediately. (make sure you know who you will look at as soon as you open your eyes). If two people make eye contact with each other, they are both eliminated from the game (and need to drink if you are drinking). But if the person you are looking at is looking at somebody else, you are safe. Repeat step 1 with everyone putting their heads down and repeating the process until the last two players are remaining who wins the round. Continue playing rounds until one player has won two rounds (or stop after the first round).
