About the Game

"Same procedure as last year, Miss Sophie?" "Same procedure as every year, James!"

Well, not quite. Miss Sophie is once again celebrating her 90th birthday with her deceased friends, but in the party game Der 90. Geburtstag oder Dinner for One based on the cult sketch of the same name, the players take turns playing the role of the butler James and reenacting the scenes: Saying toasts to the birthday child, hitting the heels, and serving food and drink — including, of course, jumping over the tiger's head, along with an increasing physical handicap through cardboard bottles clamped in the crooks of the arm or between the thighs because the increasingly drunk state of James cannot be missing in this party game.

The scenes are revealed as cards in a random order. As the game progresses, more and more cards are added, but the round always starts with the first card, followed by the second, and so on, so you should memorize the "script" in the game or else you will collect penalty chips.

In the end, whoever has the fewest Schwips-Chips wins. "Skol!"
