E-numan 2020 online drinking games
Even if you’re stuck at home and physically apart from your friends, there are many ways to stay connected and to catch up with each other. Regular group video calls, whether on Zoom, Facebook Messenger, Houseparty or Facetime, have now been the norm to stay in touch with your loved ones.
Of course, there are many ways to make video calls more fun, including holding virtual happy hours. To make your next barkada e-numan more entertaining, here are some online drinking games you can play! Just make sure everyone has their own drink before starting.
1. Numbers Game
The rules of the Numbers Game are simple but finishing it harder than it seems! If you and your barkada are up to the challenge, you can try out this video call game.
Rules:
- Everyone must count up to 20 one by one.
- If two or more players say the same number simultaneously, they must take a drink. When this happens, everyone has to start the count from the beginning.
- The game ends when you successfully complete counting to 20 without anyone overlapping.
- Play as many rounds as you want!
Tip: Make this more challenging and add variations to your counting. You can count using either even or odd numbers, count by saying the first letter of the number, or count backwards. Anyone who makes a mistake drinks too!
2. Drink Every Time
Unavoidable interruptions are bound to happen during your barkada e-numan. So why not make a game out of it? Drink Every Time is an online drinking game idea that can be played from the start to the end of your call.
Rules:
- At the start of your video call, the oldest person will establish one “Drink Every Time” rule. Whenever that rule happens, everyone must take a drink.
- You can choose from the following rule ideas but you can make your own!
- Drink every time someone’s dog barks in the background
- Drink every time the call is interrupted by someone walking in
- Drink every time someone says, “Wait, you froze!”
- Drink every time someone says, “Can you hear me?”
- Drink every time someone applies a face filter
Tip: Set more than one rule and activate them all simultaneously throughout the entire call!
3. I’m Going to the Bar
Want to test out your memory skills during your group video call? Playing this game can definitely challenge you, especially when you combine it with drinks!
Rules:
- Choose one person to begin. That person will say, “I’m going to the bar and I need to get a (insert any alcoholic drink).” If you need to brush up on drinks to find at a bar, we’ve compiled a list of cocktails found all over the world.
- The next players must repeat the drink of the previous player but add another drink to the list.
- Continue adding on to the list until someone forgets a drink. Whoever makes a mistake must take a drink.
Tip: Keep playing by choosing more places like the airport, grocery, or the pharmacy.
4. 21
21 is another video call e-numan game you can try. It’s a popular drinking game but there’s no stopping you from trying it online! In fact, playing it online may even be more fun and entertaining.
Rules:
- Count one by one until you reach 21. Once someone gets to 21, that person gets to make a rule about one of the numbers in rotation. You can choose from the following rules to get you started but feel free to be as creative as you want!
- Number 1 will be number 2
- Number 5 will be cinco
- Instead of saying number 6, scream
- Do a burpee instead of saying number 12
- Bark instead of saying number 15
- Every time the group successfully reaches 21, that last person will have to make a rule about one of the numbers again.
- When someone makes a mistake, that person will take a drink and the round resets to 1.
- The game finishes when all the numbers have been taken and the group successfully completes all numbers.
Tip: If you’re a smaller group, you can make the number until 15 only! If you want a bigger challenge, you can even go beyond 21.
5. Most Likely To
Each person in your barkada has their own personality and if you know each other well enough, it would be easy to predict what they would do. If this is the case, playing this game will be to your advantage.
Rules:
- Players take turns saying, “Who is most likely to _______?” Examples can include:
- Who is most likely to book a simultaneous trip abroad?
- Who is most likely to be arrested?
- Who is most likely to forget their phones?
- Who is most likely to miss their flight?
- Who is most likely to leave the video call first?
- Everyone says the name of the person to whom they think it’s applicable.
- The person who was mentioned the most times takes a drink.
Tip: If you feel a bit mischievous and want to target someone to drink more during your video call e-numan, just refer to them at all the rounds. But of course, know your limits and don’t go too far!
6. Category Game
An oldie but goodie, the Category Game is a fun group video call idea to play with your barkada. Add it to your e-numan and make the night even more entertaining!
Rules:
- Pick someone to select a category.
- Players will take turns naming something that fits under that category.
- Whoever loses will take a drink and choose the next category.
7. Virtual Trivia Quiz Night
There’s still a way to hold your barkada game nights. If you want to test your general knowledge and bring out your competitive side during your next video call e-numan, a virtual trivia quiz night is the way to go!
Rules:
- Divide the rest of your barkada into 2 groups. The Game Master will pick 1 category per round.
- Each group will take turns answering as many questions as they can during each round.
- The losing group members per round must take a drink.
Tip: If you want a simplified version, you can just divide everyone into 2 groups. Each group will take turns making each other guess songs on Spotify or movies using trailers on YouTube.
8. Drunk Pirate

If you want an easy and interactive way to spend your e-numan, try out Drunk Pirate! It only has one rule - keep flipping through the cards and do what it says. Just make sure to choose your “Designated Screen Sharer” - this person must share their screen and add everyone’s names on the website so all will see the cards.
If you want to explore more tasks, an alternative to Drunk Pirate is Picolo.
Tip: For the rules that aren’t applicable since they require being physically together, everyone can simultaneously take a drink instead.
