You might think smoking weed is an activity that’s already perfect in every sense. We agree! However, a little variety brought to group smoking sessions never hurts. In this series of articles, we’ve compiled some of the best games to play while smoking weed. Go through it and find something to try with your friends the next time you light up. Ready, set, go!

The Hour Of Power

games to play while high

The Hour of Power is a rendition of a famous drinking game, because why drink if you can get high? As its name suggests, The Hour of Power lasts for exactly 60 minutes, during which time you go from completely sober to green out of your mind! In the course of the game, each participant takes a hit every minute, making it 60 hits in total! The bigger the company, the more weed you’ll need, but it’s totally worth it to see everyone getting gradually more blazed and hear the giggles in the room growing louder and louder. At some point, you’ll think you can’t possibly get any higher, but the next minute comes and the green rollercoaster takes another unpredictable turn. Who’s the winner in this game? Everyone!

Never Have I Ever

Never have I ever heard of Never Have I Ever! This is probably something you’ll never hear playing this classic of the best house parties from around the globe. In case you forgot the rules, we’re here to remind you. In the weed-edition of Never Have I Ever, one person from the group starts by saying “Never have I ever…” followed by an action or event – for example, “Never have I ever had an edible.” Then, everyone playing, for whom this statement is not true, takes a hit of weed. The game continues until there’s no more stuff left. This game is a great opportunity to get to know your friends better. If you’ve played it before, you’ll know the best part of NHIE comes when everyone is so high that confessions get really unexpected and even dirty! And that’s always something that will last you way longer than weed!

Name That Movie/Book

Many swear by the fact that weed gets them as creative as it gets. Check if that’s true with Name That Movie, an easy stoner game where you take turns describing a movie or a book in seven words or less. Important note: you obviously can’t use the name of the movie or the book, and not even the characters’ names! Being high and getting more and more high as the game continues makes this seemingly easy task harder and harder with every round. The rules of the game are as follows: one player, the host of the round, describes a movie or a book in seven words or less, and the rest of the group tries to guess it. The person who first guesses correctly gets to take a hit with the host. If no one can guess, everyone except the host takes a hit. Cruel but fair!

Medusa

Medusa is one of the most enticing characters in ancient Greek mythology, who had the ability to turn anyone who dared look at her into stone. With this next smoking game, you get a chance to become a Medusa yourself, and if not turn people into stone, then at least get really stoned. So, for this weed game, everyone sits in a circle and gets a joint. At the beginning of the game, everyone is looking down. Then, on the count of three, all participants look up and start staring at each other. When two players meet each other with their eyes, they shout “Medusa!” and take a hit. This crazy mess of a game is a lot of fun, and it continues until there’s nothing left of the joints.

Seven Tokes To Infinity

The next one, Seven Tokes to Infinity, comes from the category of weed challenges. It’s also a great way for seasoned smokers to check if they are really as cool as they think they are! For this challenge, you’ll need a bong with a bowl big enough to provide seven hits. The goal of Seven Tokes to Infinity is to take seven consecutive puffs from the bong, with each held in for at least two seconds. No inhales or coughing is allowed in between tokes and if it happens, the challenge is failed. Seven might not seem like that huge a number, but trust us, it’s going to take all your lung power to keep those seven tokes in! Make sure that before you start the challenge, you’re comfortably seated, because by the end of that seventh puff, you might be unable to stand up!

Names

best weed smoking games

There’s no preparation to be done before the weed game of Names, and it’s perfect for when you find yourself chain-smoking and want to do things just a little bit differently. First, think of a category – this could be Movies, Musicians, Books, Characters, basically anything that has a name! The first player starts by naming something from the category that starts with A. For example, if the category is Movies, it could be Alien. The next player, and everyone after them, has to name a movie that starts with the previous answer’s last letter (AlienNapoleon DynamiteET, etc.). The player who fails to name the next one has to take a hit. This game is extremely easy in theory but in practice, it becomes a challenge, especially with the growing amount of weed consumed.

Running Man

great smoking games

Running Man is one of the few outdoor bong smoking games on our list. Moreover, Running Man actually involves physical activity! Best played with a group of three or more friends, Running Man starts by everyone taking a huge hit from a joint or, even better, a bong. Then, on the count of three, you all sprint to a previously-assigned point, the goal being simply not to fall! At the second point, another bong should be waiting for you, so you take another huge hit and sprint back. Whoever falls is out of the game. As you can imagine, the runners will be getting slower and slower with each bong hit taken, and seeing running men turn more into something like crawling penguins is a fascinating activity by itself, so no one ever really loses!

Chicago

Despite its simplicity, Chicago might easily be among the most searched weed games in the world! Its concept has become so widely popular that it’s started many other smoking games that are just variations of Chicago with their own twists and extra rules. Chicago gets more difficult the more you play, and it should definitely be approached with caution. Whenever you smoke in a group, you can say “Chicago”, which means the game starts. You take a hit of a joint and pass it on. Now you’re not allowed to exhale until everyone in the group has taken a puff, while also holding in the smoke. When the joint returns, you exhale and immediately take another hit, holding it in until the next turn. The game continues until no one can play anymore. Important note: Chicago is best played with groups of up to five people.

Secret Stoner

Secret Stoner is a great game for big groups that we picked up from CollegeHumor. In this weed game, a host randomly assigns a role to each player, two of whom are going to become secret stoners, meaning they’ll be the only two who get high before the game starts. Each round, the stoners will select a player to eliminate from the game. The other players include three square citizens, a narc who can find out whether a player is stoned, and a medic who can choose one player to protect from elimination. They can even choose themselves as long as it's never twice in a row. Hidden in the group is one poser pretending to be high and taking the heat off the stoners to help them win. It may seem that these are a lot of rules to follow, but it becomes pretty simple once you see it in action, so definitely watch the video. Not only is it great entertainment, but it’s also a great idea for your next get-together with friends.
