Why it’s a good drinking game:

Dune: Imperium – Uprising makes for a fantastic drinking game because it’s full of tension, deception, and high-stakes moments that pair perfectly with alcohol. Every betrayal, power move, or unexpected twist becomes an excuse to take a drink. Whenever someone pulls off a sneaky play, stumbles into a bad situation, or makes a risky decision, a penalty is never far away. The constant push-and-pull of shifting alliances, surprise victories, and crushing defeats keeps everyone engaged—and a little tipsy. Drinks tied to moments of triumph or disaster, make every round unpredictable. As the game escalates, so does the drinking, turning the final moments into a hilarious, chaotic showdown. It’s the perfect mix of strategy, suspense, and fun, where every sip adds to the drama.
