LANDMARK ROULETTE DRINKING GAME

A Spin on Classic Casino Fun with a Kiwi Party Twist

The Landmark Roulette Drinking Game is the ultimate fusion of casino-style excitement and party-ready hilarity, tailored to fit the vibrant social culture of New Zealand. Whether you're planning a weekend bash at the bach, hosting a university pre-drinks session, or organising a birthday celebration, this game adds flair, fun, and a thrill of chance to any gathering.

Inspired by the traditional roulette wheel found in casinos worldwide, this version adds a cheeky, drink-friendly twist that’s made for adults who love a good time. It’s easy to play, hard to resist, and guaranteed to become the centrepiece of your next get-together.

What is the Landmark Roulette Drinking Game?

The Landmark Roulette Drinking Game transforms the classic game of roulette into a party essential. Instead of betting with chips or cash, players place their fate in the hands of chance—and a little bit of liquid courage. The game features a functional roulette wheel and 16 numbered shot glasses, each corresponding to a spot on the wheel. When the ball lands on your number, it’s time to drink up.

This game is perfect for 2–8 players and is designed for adult use (18+). It combines the suspense of a real roulette spin with the social buzz of a good party. And because it’s themed around landmarks—either through etched glasses, NZ-based trivia cards, or design aesthetics—it brings a fun, culturally relevant edge to the game.

What's in the Box?

When you buy the Landmark Roulette Drinking Game, you get:

• 1 Premium Roulette Wheel (approx. 30cm diameter)
  
• 16 Numbered Shot Glasses (30ml capacity)
  
• 2 Roulette Balls
  
• Game Rules & Instructions
  
• Optional Landmark-Themed Challenge Cards (NZ-inspired, depending on edition)
  

Each shot glass is numbered and corresponds to a section of the roulette wheel. You can prefill each glass with different types of drinks—alcoholic or not—and let the wheel decide your fate.

How to Play

Step 1: Set It Up

Place the roulette wheel in the centre of your table and position the shot glasses in the matching numbered slots around the wheel. You can fill the glasses with the same drink or mix it up for added suspense.

Step 2: Take Turns Spinning

Each player takes a turn spinning the wheel. Drop the ball in and wait for it to stop. Wherever it lands, the player whose number corresponds must take the shot—or complete a challenge if you’ve added custom rules.

Step 3: Keep It Going

You can play in rounds, elimination-style, or until all the glasses are empty. Mix and match rules to suit your group’s vibe. Add Kiwi trivia, dares, or switch up the drinks for added chaos!

Why Kiwis Love It

Brings the Casino to the Kiwi Lounge

With its realistic spinning wheel and numbered glasses, this game replicates the thrill of roulette in a laid-back, social setting. No need for chips or dealers—just good mates and good vibes.

Cultural Connection

Some versions come with NZ-themed extras, like glasses etched with landmark silhouettes (Sky Tower, Hobbiton, Mount Cook), or trivia cards featuring questions about Aotearoa. It’s an easy way to bring that "Only in New Zealand" feeling to the table.

Easy and Inclusive

There’s no complicated scoring or strategy—just spin and sip. Anyone can play, and the randomness means everyone has a fair shot at fun. It’s suitable for seasoned partiers and first-time game night hosts alike.

Party-Perfect for Every Occasion

21st and 30th Birthdays

Level up the milestone with a spin of destiny. Assign wild drinks or challenges to specific numbers for added suspense.

Flat Warmings

Great for breaking the ice with new flatmates or neighbours. Everyone gets involved, and no one needs to know the rules beforehand.

Beach or Bach Weekends

Pack it with your jandals and chilly bin. It’s compact, light, and fits easily into a beach bag or suitcase.

Stag and Hens’ Nights

Make the night unforgettable with a roulette-style twist. Assign custom dares, pre-made cocktails, or themed shots to amp up the celebration.

Custom Rule Ideas

To tailor the game to your crowd, try adding any of these Kiwi-themed twists:

• Shot of the South: Number 3 = a drink named after a southern city (e.g. Dunedin Dark)
  
• Rotorua Roulette: Number 8 = you must sniff (not drink) from the glass
  
• Hobbiton Hangover: Number 13 = spin again, double shot
  
• Chilly Bin Challenge: Random glass must be filled with mystery drink
  
• Te Reo Toast: Toast in Māori before drinking
  

You can also assign categories to certain numbers, like “nominate,” “truth,” “double,” “skip,” or “make a toast.”

High-Quality and Reusable

The roulette wheel is made of durable plastic with smooth-spinning mechanics, while the shot glasses are made from thick, clear glass. They’re easy to clean, dishwasher safe, and durable enough to handle the rowdiest nights. Everything packs neatly into the original box for easy storage between parties.

Safe and Responsible Fun

As with all drinking games, the Landmark Roulette Drinking Game should be played responsibly. It’s designed to be fun, social, and entertaining—not to pressure anyone into drinking more than they’re comfortable with. Encourage players to substitute non-alcoholic drinks if desired and know your group’s limits.

Pro Tip: Keep water handy, take breaks, and encourage snacks!

Why This Game Stands Out

Unlike more generic drinking games, the Landmark Roulette Drinking Game is designed to bring people together in a fun, spontaneous, and competitive way. The thrill of the spin, the unpredictability of the outcome, and the shared laughter it sparks make it a go-to item for any social setting.

Plus, it offers that extra touch of Kiwi personality that international games can’t replicate. Whether you add your own rules, play it straight, or invent an entirely new version, it’s a versatile product that delivers every time.

If you’ve ever wanted a game that gets everyone off their phones and into the moment, this is it. Simple, exciting, and always memorable.
