The Witcher series has been more popular than ever since the release of its latest adaptation, this time as a Netflix series. Although The Witcher books and games always have a considerable following because of the quality storytelling and gameplay, the latest version of Geralt's adventures has created an even wider audience. Of course, a number of the watchers drink and it seems fitting that in a series with so much talk of ale, that there would be a drinking game to accompany it.
Henry Cavill has largely pleased fans with his depiction of Geralt, in fact, the whole series has seemed to impress the majority of fans. Despite initial mixed reviews from critics, critical stances on the series have begun to change. With a second season already commissioned and a fanbase cultivated, it seems only right that watchers can now drink with their favorite characters. Fortunately, a Reddit user has delivered a game to help watchers do just that.
The drinking-game submitted by the Reddit user has three different drinking categories ranging from a sip to downing a drink and it notes a lot of the frequently occurring moments in The Witcher web-series. Some of these catalysts for a drink include monsters dying, Geralt saying "Hmmm", and of course when "Toss a Coin To Your Witcher" is sung. In short, anyone watching the series is destined to get very drunk.
Be warned that the drinking game is both NSFW and also not appropriate for anyone who isn't old enough to drink.
The rules of the game are relatively simple and fans on the thread have already begun adapting them. Newcomers may question how much the list could be used, but fan-made content has already drawn attention to the frequency of some of these events. The drinking game will be sure to entertain watchers, regardless of their familiarity with the franchise to this point. It will be interesting to see how fans build on this template and create even more perilous tasks for drink-watchers.
The Witcher series has certainly impressed fans and has been one of Netflix's most successful series of 2019. This drinking game will likely give viewers even more reason to return before the following series is released. The show has a solid story to follow and although deviations will likely occur which will split fan opinion, many will enjoy making more drinking based games as the series continues.
The Witcher is available to view now, exclusively on Netflix.
