Most Likely To: Rules, Setup, and Prompt Ideas

By Drunkdeck · Published July 24, 2026

Most Likely To turns a group into a jury. Someone reads a prompt like "Most likely to become famous," and on a count of three, everyone points at whoever they think fits best. Whoever gets the most fingers pointed at them drinks, or answers a follow-up question, or just has to live with it for the rest of the night.

How to play Most Likely To

  1. Sit in a group where everyone can see each other point.
  2. One player reads a "Most likely to..." prompt out loud.
  3. On the count of three, every player (including the reader) points at whoever fits the prompt best.
  4. Whoever gets the most points drinks or takes the forfeit; ties mean everyone tied drinks.
  5. Rotate who reads the next prompt.

Handling ties and callouts

Ties are common and part of the fun: when two people split the votes, both drink and the group usually demands a one-line justification from whoever voted for them. If a prompt gets awkward, the group can agree on a 'skip' rule: anyone can veto a prompt once per game without penalty.

Prompt ideas

"Most likely to become a millionaire," "Most likely to survive a zombie apocalypse," "Most likely to sleep through their own wedding," "Most likely to accidentally start a conspiracy theory," "Most likely to get kicked out of a bar for dancing on a table."

Ideal group size

Most Likely To needs at least four players to make voting interesting: with three, votes split too predictably. It genuinely improves as the group grows past eight or ten, since a bigger crowd means less predictable splits and more disagreement to unpack after each count of three.
