Bone Tomahawk Drinking Game + Cocktail

No one warned the sheriff's posse what was in those caves — consider yourself warned.

The Rules

  • Sip — Sheriff Hunt makes a dry, understated observation about an impossible situation
  • Sip — Arthur O'Dwyer limps or someone references his broken leg slowing the group
  • Sip — Chicory says something endearingly rambling and off-topic
  • Sip — John Brooder polishes or references his reputation as a man-killer
  • Sip — the troglodyte tribe is heard or referenced before they are seen
  • Drink Twice — a member of the rescue party is captured or killed by the tribe
  • Drink Twice — the group stops to debate whether to continue or turn back
  • Drink Twice — Brooder does something both horrifying and genuinely effective
  • Shot — the infamous cave torture scene begins
  • Shot — Sheriff Hunt finally reaches his deputy and the prisoners
  • Chug — the final confrontation in the cave reaches its brutal conclusion
