Sober
As A Judge
Real cases · your verdict · wrong = drink
You are the bench. Every case gets a verdict — guilty or not — and when the court overrules you, you drink.
Upheld, you’re clear · overruled, you drink
DrinkOpen the bench
Start a game and you’re the Chief Justice. Share the four-letter room code; the rest of the bench votes from their phones.
Set the length
Quick (5 cases), Standard (10 cases), or Marathon (the full docket).
Hear the case
The charge and the facts land — names, citation and outcome held back. Argue it out with the bench.
Cast your verdict
Everyone taps Guilty or Not Guilty and locks in. No changing your mind once it’s in.
Bang the gavel
The court finds the defendant — the real ruling, the reasoning, and the case citation, revealed at last.
Pour accordingly
Everyone who called it wrong owes sips. Read the court right and you’re clear. Next case.
The harder the case, the more it stings to miss. Drinks Ordered keeps a running count of every sip owed.
Shield
Three verdicts right in a row earns a shield. It soaks up your next wrong call — walk away dry.
Sentence
Only Judge who got it right? You get to hand 2 sips to whichever guilty conscience you choose.
Cheers & overruled
The whole bench right is a flawless bench — cheers all round. The whole bench wrong is overruled — everyone drinks.
Contempt
Miss two in a row and you’re held in contempt of court — no penalty but the shame of it.
Recess
Call a timed health break — 5, 10 or 15 minutes. Every bench sees the same countdown, and court resumes automatically when it runs out (or the moment you tap Resume).
Adjourn
Ended up somewhere better to be? Adjourn court for the day closes the docket early and goes straight to the awards — no need to finish every case.
Beyond the base docket, themed Case Packs unlock more collections — held to the same standard, real cases with real citations. Buy once; it unlocks for your whole bench.
