According to the publisher, "It's loud, it's ludicrous, it's brilliant. THROW UP is the appallingly funny NEW game for two or more. Get your wits in gear or suffer the consequences"
THROW UP is usually played as a drinking game (rule 1: "Ensure that you have a ready supply of liquid refreshments"). The game begins as a rhythmic word game. Players tap the table and clap in rhythm. The first player calls out a word and the player to his/her left shouts out a word that begins with the final letter of the first word (e.g., word 1 = "cat", word 2 = "ten", word 3 = "naked"...). Players who cannot think of a word, break the rhythm, or who make a mistake must roll a pewter die (it is in the form of a drunk; it reminds me of the pigs in "Pass the Pigs") to determine a penalty.
The position of the die determines the penalty:
? A choker: take a large swallow.
? A sticky ear (bottle up): you and the player to your left take a large swallow.
? A sticky ear (fish up): you and the player to your right take a large swallow.
? A gutter: choose one of the other players to take a large swallow.
? A dribbler: propose a toast; everyone takes a drink.
? A tumble: Off the table, finish your glass.
The game includes:
? 1 Pewter drunk figure
? 1 pen
? 1 forfeit pad
? 1 forfeit summary card
? 1 carry pouch
? 1 set of rules
