Black Sheep Drinking Game Rules

About the Black Sheep Drinking Game

Play the Black Sheep drinking game with real-time activity triggers synced to the movie. The full pack includes 237 hand-crafted triggers spread across Casual, Normal, and Hardcore difficulty levels — so you pick the pace before you press play. Every trigger is tied to a specific scene, line, or beat in the film, and MovieknurD fires them in real time so nobody has to track rules or count seconds.

When dignified Albert Donnelly runs for Governor, his team moves to keep his slow-witted and klutzy younger brother, Mike, out of the eye of the media. To baby-sit Mike, the campaign assigns sarcastic Steve, who gets the experience of a lifetime when he tries to take Mike out of town during the election.

The game runs the full length of the movie — about 1h 26m. Open it on your phone, tablet, or laptop, choose a difficulty, and press start when the film begins. Cinema Mode also works for theater showings, vibrating quietly when a trigger fires so you can play in public without disrupting the room.
