To provide a platform for people to have fun and interact more, Landmines is one of the drinking games that allows drinkers over the age of 21 to socialize with each other in a group setting. The game is quite easy to follow and depends on the skills of the players. This game is best played by a small number of people - preferably between three and six. Some of the requirements of the game are a table or another flat, sturdy surface, a quarter, a glass and of course some beer.

One person chooses to go first and this individual pours as much beer as they can take once in a glass. He or she is then required to spin the quarter. The climax of this drinking game is when the player tries to drink the beer and at the same time pick up the quarter before it stops spinning using the index and the middle finger. Failing to complete this procedure, the person has to repeat the whole process again until it is done right. This makes landmine very enjoyable.

Some people are very skilled at this drinking game and can successfully do the procedure quite easily. Participants who complete this step successfully are given an option of using the beer can as a landmine. This means that the player has the capacity to use the can to slap the quarter as someone else tries to pick the quarter and drink at the same time. In most cases, this leads to the player not succeeding and there is a fine in which the person has to do it again until the procedure is done right.

The can stays at the same position on the table as the process goes round through all the people on the table. This game is very enjoyable and exciting as it gives you an opportunity to beat people at their own game by ensuring that at the end of the game they are completely messed up. Most bars will not entertain people playing the game inside their premises due to the slamming of cans. The game has gained popularity due to its ability to challenge one's ability to consume beer but also because of the dexterity of the players.

The landmine drinking game can also be played using a coin instead of a quarter. In this case the player has to spin the coin and capture it under his or her beer can. He or she must then guess the outcome of the coin and if the guess is wrong the player has to take another drink and try again. A correct guess allows the passing of the coin to the next player on the table. The player who spins the coin is referred to as the spinner.

In this game a player who successfully guesses the outcome of the coin can place the empty beer can at any position on the table. This is designed to make it even harder for the next players to spin and cover the coin correctly. "Landmine drinking game" guarantees fun to the participants especially if it's played for long periods.
