This game is a tad bit more difficult. Withnail And I isn;t just a legendary cult movie. It’s a legendary cult movie amongst even the most hardcore of alcoholics, due to Richard E Grant consuming 1980s rock star levels of various drinks.

The goal here is simple enough: Have a drink, whenever Withnail has one. If you want to make it more challenging however, you have to have the exact same drink that Withnail consumes. Which includes Gin, cider, ale, sherry, red wine and whisky according to this handy list.
