Ring of Fire, also known as King's Cup, is a drinking game that is played with a deck of cards. Here are the basic steps to play the game:

  1. Place an empty cup in the center of the table and spread a deck of cards face down around the cup in a circle.
  2. Each player takes turns drawing a card from the circle and performs the action associated with the card according to the rules of the game.
  3. The cards have specific meanings, as follows:
  • Ace: Waterfall – All players start drinking and cannot stop until the player who drew the card stops.
  • 2: You – Choose another player who must drink.
  • 3: Me – The player who drew the card drinks.
  • 4: Floor – All players must touch the floor, and the last person to do so drinks.
  • 5: Guys – All male players drink.
  • 6: Chicks – All female players drink.
  • 7: Heaven – All players must point to the ceiling, and the last person to do so drinks.
  • 8: Mate – Choose another player to be your mate. Every time you drink, your mate must drink too.
  • 9: Rhyme – The player who drew the card says a word, and everyone takes turns saying a word that rhymes with it. The first player who fails to come up with a rhyme drinks.
  • 10: Categories – The player who drew the card chooses a category, and players take turns saying things that belong to that category. The first player who cannot come up with an item in the category drinks.
  • Jack: Make a rule – The player who drew the card makes a rule that all players must follow for the remainder of the game. Breaking the rule results in a drink.
  • Queen: Question master – The player who drew the card becomes the 'question master' and can ask other players questions. If a player answers the question instead of saying 'fuck you' to the question master, they must drink.
  • King: Pour – The player who drew the card pours a portion of their drink into the center cup. The player who draws the fourth and final king must drink the center cup.
  1. The game continues with players drawing cards and performing the associated actions until the fourth and final king card is drawn, at which point the game is over.

Remember, Ring of Fire can be a fun game, but it's important to drink responsibly and know your limits.
