Balance a deck of cards on a bottle neck, then take turns to blow some off until someone removes the final card.

How To Play

    Select a used wine bottle or similar and balance a deck of cards on top of the neck.

  • Step 2.

    Players take turns to blow at least one card off the top of the deck.

  • Step 3.

    Aggressive players may decide to blow a large number of cards off, with the inherent risk of overdoing it!

    The player who ends up blowing the final card off the bottle is eliminated. Reset for round two and so on.

  • The Winner

    The last player remaining is the winner.
