Description

"Sip and Strip is an exciting game designed for swinging adults of all ages" -- so says the instruction booklet that comes from the game.

This is a Frank Bresee game, similar to nearly everything else he made, it includes a Monopoly-like board, drinks, and this time stripping. The game includes a routine board, "sip" cards and "strip" cards (standing in for Community Chest and Chance). The game can be played by two to six players or even more if you want to play with couples as teams.

The roll of the dice moves your pieces around the board and you are required to do what the squares tell you to do. Mostly this involves taking sips of a beverage, sometimes taking a Sip or Strip card. Some of the Sip cards direct personal action like "take a sip and kiss any player" and other cards require all participants to take an action, usually involving another sip of a beverage.

Each complete round of the board includes more Sip cards and more Strip cards requiring you to remove a piece of clothing. The game proceeds until the sips catch up with you (which is the point of Bresee's more notorious game "Pass Out") or until everyone has removed all articles of clothing. The game suggests the last player to remove the last article of clothing is the winner, but local rules may suggest other winners may be declared.

The length of the game depends greatly on potency of beverages, how many articles of clothes players are wearing, and natural distractions that arise from game situations. Unless all participants are really committed, the games can easily break up from prudishness or embarrassment.
