In Real Life people drink alcohol. One could fill several essays with discussion of the biochemical and sociological reasons for this, but the main reason is simple: Because it's fun. We run into a problem when we try to depict this in video games, however. Namely, a realistic depiction of intoxication would have the player character stumbling around with reduced motor skills for a while, and possibly waking up the next day with a splitting headache. Or in other words, not fun. So what are game designers to do if they want to include booze in their games, but still want the players to actually use it? Simple. Make it a power up! While it may not be entirely realistic to have alcohol increase one's fighting ability, the only other options are to not include it at all, or to relegate it to the status of Shop Fodder or Poison Mushroom. Most commonly, it increases damage done while penalising armour and other defenses. When drunkenness is included, it is usually exaggerated and short-lived, sometimes with vision blurring of Mushroom Samba proportions lasting for only a few seconds. Someone in fiction who gains such powers is a Drunken Master. See also Addiction-Powered. Compare Double-Edged Buff, which may include this trope if the buff has both a positive and negative effect. The Opposite Trope is Intoxication Mechanic, although it's possible for the two to overlap (if drinking alcohol temporarily buffs the player character's abilities, but also causes an Interface Screw). |

In the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. series, vodka cures radiation poisoning, at the cost of blurry, swimming vision for a considerable length of time. It's worse if you drink several bottles at once. In Call of Pripyat, vodka also increases hunger. Truth in Television as some studies show. |

Fallout 76 has dozens of liquors to cause various status effects, but almost all work out to a buff of some kind. The most infamous is Nukashine which not only has a powerful interface screw but also will cause the character to "black out" and be teleported to a random spot on the map. The game also has the "Professional Drinker" perk card which negates the chance of addiction drawback. | |

In the Like a Dragon series, the more drunk you are, the faster you can fill the Heat gauge, and some passive abilities only work if you are drunk. The only downside is that being drunk can attract more enemies. In the prequel Yakuza 0, several style abilities kick in if Kiryu and Majima are drunk. Kiryu's Brawler style has quite a few of these. Judgment and its sequel has a move that can only be executed if Yagami is drunk, though using it causes him to immediately sober up. |

In Lusternia, drinking can dull damage. Certain races (particularly dwarves - natch) can handle their beer way better than others. And Brewmeisters (a trade) can handle it better still, in addition to brewing their own magical draughts. Consequently, a drunken dwarf Brewmeister is a force to be feared. | |

Mabinogi has whiskey and gin as consumable food items, and if you know how to cook, you can use them to mix up cocktails.

In Ancient Domains of Mystery, drinking potions of booze confuses the player for a few turns. On the other hand, they also have two beneficial uses - dipping a wand in a potion of booze recharges it, and Yggaz the Fool in Terinyo will give the player a random potion (including the rarest ones, like the potion of gain attributes) when given a potion of booze. | |

Deep Rock Galactic: All drinks under "Today's Special" will grant a buff for the next mission, be it increased mineral yields, better digging capacity, fighting skill, or added resistances; all depends on which one of the eight options is available for that particular round. Drinks in other categories may have strange effects that won't follow you into missions, and all will get you tanked at varying speeds (except the Leaf Lover's Special, which will get you un-tanked). | |

In World of Warcraft, alcohol will blur your vision, make your character walk crooked, and make you misjudge enemies' levels if you drink enough of it, but some of it increases your stats temporarily. The chat box displays your intoxication level as feeling tipsy, drunk, etc (along with an Alcohol Hic or two). When you get to "completely smashed" you start to have hallucinations and your characters performs a drunken vomit. It also causes you to "slur" some words by randomly adding an 'h' after some 's'es, leading to one early patch note reassuring people that they would no longer accidentally talk about excrement while try to sit. Inverted in Warcraft 3 (and Defense of the Ancients), where the Pandaren Brewmaster can cause a negative buff on enemies by using the Drunken Haze ability. It also helps if he should decide to set the enemy on fire. In one Wildhammer Dwarf daily quest in the Twilight Highlands in Cataclysm, using the kegs of beer gives you a significant and stacking bonus to your attack. Stat-enhancing alcohol is in the game, but most of it is only available during the Brewfest world event. Brewmaster monks are this as a whole class type. They turn the normally squishy monk class into a Stone Wall with the Stagger passive, which converts a portion of the damage they take into an easy-to-heal Damage Over Time, and is implied to be the Brewmaster getting so drunk they can't feel pain. Several scenarios in Mists Of Pandaria involve using booze, though two of them are offensive skills rather than buffs. |

Drunken Master portrays Jackie Chan being a better fighter while drunk (with the reasoning of increased pain tolerance and improved flexibility. Also, real-life Drunken Boxing is pure Confusion Fu: Jackie Chan's movie and video game series regarding being a Drunken Master thus assumes it's easier to execute it when actually drunk). He quits booze at one point in the plot, but in the final fight, he recovers from a hopeless fight by drinking pure grain alcohol. | |

Skyrim: Booze generally restores a bit of Stamina while slowing down your Stamina regeneration. Different drinks provide different levels of respective buff/debuff, but in general you'd be better off going for an easily bought or crafted Stamina potion. Battlehorn Castle has a series of liquors designed to provide some useful buffs provided you have the right ingredients. |

The King of Fighters Chin Gentsai has a move where he takes a sip of his booze to increase his attack power and power-up some of his moves; a few of them are only performable after he drinks enough times. Hwa Jai in XIII has a super move where he takes out a bottle of alcohol and drinks it, powering up his offense for a short time. |

In Fallout: New Vegas, one of your Companions, Cass, gives you the 'Whiskey Rose' perk. This makes Whiskey give a moderate boost in damage threshold, in addition to its usual effects, and removes the adverse effects of alcohol addiction, making her the preferred partner of many Unarmed and Melee based characters. You can also make your own wasteland alcohol, the Large Wasteland Tequila, one type has a possible intelligence penalty of -6. If you have average intelligence (5) this can take you into Improbably Low I.Q. territory unless Cass is with you. | |

In System Shock 2 and BioShock, you can drink any booze you find lying around to restore your Health. This comes at a penalty to your PSI/EVE, however. In Bioshock, you get the opposite effect from tobacco. As realistic as it is that drinking and smoking cancel each other out (since nicotine is a stimulant and alcohol is a depressant), it's worse, because they give you more than they take away, meaning that doing both in equal amounts is good for you. In BioShock 2 there is a Call-Back to this: a patent medicine can be found that restores both health and EVE. The player can find where it's made, and discover its production process: hard liquor steeped through tobacco leaves in gas cans. Drinking booze too fast does mess up your aim and vision, just not for very long. You can equip the Booze Hound tonic, which inverts the EVE loss into a gain, making alcohol a purely beneficial consumable aside from the minor vision and aiming penalties. |

Heroes of the Storm: Chen Stormstout, with his Fortifying Brew Trait, can drink from his keg for a temporary shield for as long as he is drinking and a few seconds after he's done, while refilling his brew meter for his abilities. Talents can add other benefits, like Enough to Share, which shields allies, or Brewmaster's Balance, which gives him extra bonuses based on how much brew he has (IE, how drunk he is). Chen's niece Li Li can toss brew to allies, which heals them. One of her heroics involves her summoning a massive jug that rapidly distributes brew to the lowest-health ally in range. It's zig-zagged with her though, since the game has equal hints implying her brew is alcoholic as it does implying it's actually just tea. |

In Exalted, there is a Martial Arts school which teaches the Orgiastic Fugitive Style which increases your ability in the art in line with how debilitatingly inebriated your character is. This, by the way is a Celestial level martial art meaning that its inventor was either a God or one of the 700 Celestial Exalted. There's also Celestial Wine, which heals health levels, cures diseases and neutralises poison. Drinking a whole bottle of it will make you immune to disease and poisons for a year. |

In Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel!, you can use Moonstone to buy special drinks at Moxxi's bar in Concordia. These "Moxxtails" grant passive buffs to a character's abilities such as ammo regeneration or damage resistance, though only one drink can be had at any time. On the upside, the drinks are fairly cheap (a flat 10 moonstone each, which is easy enough to farm) and the buff lasts for 30 real-time minutes. | |

One of the archetypes for the alchemist class in Pathfinder is called the moonshiner. It replaces the alchemist's normal mutagen ability with something called "moonshine stupor"; essentially, it functions the same as the mutagen, except has a reduced duration, with the trade-off that it can be triggered by any alcoholic beverage. At higher levels, the archetype gains additional alcohol-based abilities, such as mixing booze with extracts and even bombs; becoming a social drinker, which increases Charisma; and suppressing a variety of status effects. | |

Dungeons & Dragons: The Drunken Master Prestige Class can drink alcohol to provide bonuses to Strength or Constitution at a penalty to Wisdom and Intelligence. At higher levels Drunken Masters can heal themselves by hitting the booze, or set the alcohol inside them on fire and spray it as a Breath Weapon. The 1st edition Dungeon Masters Guide included an intoxication table that gave similar bonuses to bravery, morale, and hit points to drunkards of all classes (and similar penalties to almost every other ability score). In the Baldur's Gate series, over imbibing would only cause the character to become drunk at penalties to attack and armor. A moderate consumption would give you a slight morale boost. Still not worth it, though. Issue #334 of Dragon has an article called "Drunkards & Flagons" which is all about this and contains several magical buff-giving drinks. Special mention goes to the orc-made Drowned Man Stout, which is pretty much Exactly What It Says on the Tin. |

In Dwarf Fortress all dwarves — even babies — are alcoholics, and going a significant amount of time without alcohol will cause efficiency and happiness to plummet. Alcohol also gives happiness boosts, especially if it's a kind the dwarf likes. Of course, alcohol poisoning is an implemented syndrome, so too much of a good thing means your dwarves will pass out drunk and drown in their own vomit. Alcohol-Induced Idiocy is averted, or at least you can't really tell it from normal dwarven idiocy. | |

Fallout 2 took this to another level. In addition to booze, there were 4-5 street drugs which would give you stat bonuses, at the cost of minuses to other stats and a chance of addiction. A bug allowed you to gain unimaginable agility by constantly using Jet until you were addicted, then drinking a little alcohol (which canceled the addicted status and made the agility gain permanent). | |

All the previous games' alcohol did was reduce perception by 1, for a very short time. Additionally, you could use it on other targets besides yourself.

In Dynasty Warriors, Samurai Warriors, and Warriors Orochi, giant (as in, large enough for a grown man to take a bath in) clay pots of alcohol fill your Limit Break meter. They're said to be unrefined, so it's no wonder they only fill you the said meter and not both your health bar and LB meter at the same time (like the "ointment/elixir" does). Zhang Fei's new EX Attack as of 8: Xtreme Legends involves him giving himself a temporary status buff from drinking his ever-so-present wine jug. |

In Saints Row and Saints Row 2, you can drink 40 oz's to gain more powerful unarmed attacks at the expense of a slightly blurred vision. You can drink several at once, and your blurriness and damage increase proportionally (in the first game, the Playa will occasionally stop to puke if he's had too much). You also revive fallen teammates from a Non-Lethal K.O. by literally pouring a 40 oz for (or rather, on) your homies — though, thankfully, this action does not consume an item from your supply, nor do you actually have to keep a bottle in reserve for this. | |

In RuneScape a variety of ales can be brewed via the Cooking skill. These provide temporary boosts to specific skills when drunk. However, alcohol of all types reduces your chance to hit in close combat and, unlike most booze-based buffs, tends to sap their physical Strength as well. In addition, while the benefits of drinking multiple of the same beverage do not stack, the downsides do (in addition to typically lasting longer than the buffs)— to the point where excessive use can actually temporarily leave even a high-level player's combat skills weaker than someone just starting out. | |

In the first four Avernum games (Avernum 1-3 and Blades of Avernum), most alcoholic beverages simply impart the "drunk" status, making it very difficult to hit things, but Gremlin Wine (magic wine made by gremlins, not out of gremlins) also confers a high enough level of the "blessed" status (increases physical damage and accuracy) to more than counteract it. | |

The Elder Scrolls: In Arena and Daggerfall, you can throw back drinks to gain minor, temporary buffs... but not only do you get blurry vision, if you drink enough, it could kill you on the spot from alcohol poisoning. In Morrowind and Oblivion: Cheap drinks will generally buff one attribute while draining another, or restore your stamina. It is possible, however, to negate such attribute drains by casting a recovery spell. Expensive, quality liquors like Flin or Cyrodilic Brandy don't have any adverse effects. Since different drinks diminish different attributes, it is possible to drink two or three, and have the penalty end up on a non-combat stat, such as Personality. An extreme example is the drink Sujamma from Morrowind. It massively boosts Strength while dropping Intelligence. And the effects stack. Great when one needs titanic strength for a short time and doesn't mind the penalty to their spellcasting abilities. In Oblivion, most of the positive effects are negligible (beer, for example, restores a tiny amount of Fatigue, which regenerates quickly anyway) so the majority of alcoholic drinks are Shop Fodder. There are a few exceptions, such as some of the better wines. Skyrim: Booze generally restores a bit of Stamina while slowing down your Stamina regeneration. Different drinks provide different levels of respective buff/debuff, but in general you'd be better off going for an easily bought or crafted Stamina potion. Battlehorn Castle has a series of liquors designed to provide some useful buffs provided you have the right ingredients. |

Kingdom Come: Deliverance: Many alchemy potions in the game use spirits as their base liquid. Getting drunk on potions, beer, or wine can help with speechcraft, lockpicking, and archery, but will also mess with the camera POV, make you loud and boorish (uncharismatic), and the hangover will make you useless. | |

Dungeons of Dredmor uses food to recover health and beverages to recover mana and gain temporary buffs... and excluding mod-added items, the latter are all alcoholic. Oddly enough, this also extends to NPCs, as you can see when you break into a wizard's pocket dimension and find the floor littered with bottles. Unusually for this trope, you also gain progressively worse status ailments (that replace each other, and go in reverse when you start sobering up) if you drink too much at once. | |

Bastion treats alcohol as equipment rather than consumable items, meaning the bonuses he gets from them are permanent until you change them. The higher the protagonist's level, the more kinds of alcohol he can equip at once, meaning that the more crap he goes through, the more he has to drink to cope with it. | |

The PS2 and XBox release of The Bard's Tale give the player the option of temporarily increasing (or, in some cases, decreasing) some of the eponymous Bard's stats by buying a drink from any of the several taverns he comes across in his quest.

Disco Elysium: The Player Character is an alcoholic amnesiac. They can drink alcohol for a temporary physique bonus, at a cost of morale damage and a volition (i.e. willpower) debuff. Embracing fascism increases the buff further, and internalizing the "Opioid Receptor Antagonist" thought removes the morale damage. However, if the player swears off alcohol by internalizing the "Waste Land of Reality" thought instead, they only get the negatives from alcohol. | |

Dead In Vinland actually has an enemy class called Drunkard which is built on this. Additionally, having your Player Party members drink together will reduce their Depression. Using booze items on a character will randomly either reduce their Depression and add the buff Excited, reduce their Depression dramatically and add the debuff Drunk, or just increase their Sickness somewhat and add the debuff Vomiting. Depression-prone characters like Eirik and Moira are likely to do a lot of drowning their sorrows. | |

Deus Ex: In the vanilla game, any alcohol drink would give you two points of health, at the cost of blurred vision for roughly about a minute or so. Justified as the player character's nanites would instantly metabolize any product consumed. Deus Ex: Invisible War: Averted. Alcohol takes away health. Deus Ex: Human Revolution: Alcohol will blur your vision again and give you health, like in the original game, but this time, your health will be pushed beyond the normal limit, giving you extra health.

Smite has Bacchus, a perpetual drunkard who carries around a jug of wine he can drink from to heal himself and provide a temporary boost to his power and defenses. His abilities also gain additional effects based on how drunk he is, with his basic damaging abilities gaining a slow and stun when drunk and his ultimate increasing his damage output when he's completely smashed. Very fitting for the Roman God of Wine. To a lesser extent, having Baron Samedi on a team gives them access to Baron's Brew, which provides slight HP and MP regeneration when drunk. | |

Gragas, a champion in League of Legends, is based entirely around being a fat guy who brews and drinks magical wines and ales. Every time he uses an ability, he takes a drink to restore a portion of his maximum health, and he can guzzle down a whole cask of brew to gain back mana, temporarily increase his attack damage, and decrease all damage taken temporarily. Inverted with Gangplank, whose Grog-Soaked Blade slows and damages enemies he hits over time. He gets you too drunk to walk properly and kills you. |

Brewmaster, a Defense of the Ancients hero, has the ability to go into a stupor, granting him a chance to dodge attacks and deal critical strikes from being too inebriated to walk or strike correctly, and his movespeed goes up and down like a stumbling drunk. He can also apply a booze-based debuff at enemy heroes, which is strong enough slow them and make most of their attacks miss. A rework changed the booze to be less blinding, but a lot more flammable. Then in 7.31, he can now drink his own booze without the negative effects and triple the bonuses granted by his new Stance System. Also in Dota is Admiral Kunkka, whose ultimate coats allies in Kunkka's Rum, increasing movement speed and damage resistance, although they will feel the pain afterwards. |

Being a Fantasy Counterpart Culture to Russia, Kislevite Warbands are able to purchase Vodka. A Kislevite Hero who drank a bottle of this harsh alcohol before a battle fights with great courage at the cost of their coordination and reaction time.

GURPS addresses this. The Drunk and Tipsy conditions temporarily reduce DX and IQ but make it easier to resist the Cowardice and Shyness disadvantages. From Martial Arts the Drunken Fighting perk plays this straight. The drunkenness rules were originally written for the Source Book of Callahan's Crosstime Saloon. The Dungeon Fantasy supplement Taverns gives details on several special drinks that can give you minor benefits. |

Redneck Rampage has booze restore health and, in the right amount, give Leonard a modicum of Damage Reduction. Don't drink past the green zone, however: if Leonard gets too shitfaced his vision will blur, he won't walk in a straight line, and going further past that makes his sight turn fixedly to the left and blur even more. Fortunately at this point you can pee to eliminate the alcohol to just above the green-orange threshold, and you can wait or eat something like Cow Pienote food brings down the alcohol meter to bring it back down to the optimal zone. | |

Unknown Armies has Dipsomancy as one of its magical paths. Followers must be inebriated in order to gain magical charges, and sobering up removes all of their current power. | |

In The Sims Medieval, Sims get a positive buff from drinking, and an extra one if the drink actually tastes good. Those with the "Drunkard" Flaw get a negative buff from not drinking, but don't get any more positive effects from drinking than those without the flaw. | |

Drunkenness in a typical New World of Darkness game confides a small bonus to all Social actions, but a corresponding penalty to Initiative, Wits, and Defense. | |

In Kingdom of Loathing, booze is one of the main ways of gaining more adventures per day. Note that if you drink too much, you enter drunken stupor: a set of adventures, all producing negative (abet minor) effects. So drink in moderation, or binge and wait until tomorrow. There also exist several drinks which, in addition to providing adventures, also provide actual buffs. Also, absinthe, which strangely doesn't get you drunker, instead temporarily opening a new set of zones to adventure in. Sneaky Pete's day. Drink in moderation, it's the same as normal. Go into a stupor, still the same. Get completely blasted, you get a new area. Although not a buff, having more "drunkness" increases the power of the Way of the Surprising Fist attack "Drunken Baby Style". (Yes, it really is called that) |

Dead Rising: Both Frank and the gun store owner drink wine by the bottle to replenish health. In the sequel, Chuck downs an entire bottle of Whiskey (the same you can make a molotov with, holy crap!) in a few seconds. Although the risk of getting sick to your stomach arises when consuming more than one alcoholic item shortly after another (which results in vomiting uncontrollably). Done again by Frank in Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3. He can take a swig of alcohol, allowing him to take more pictures and grow levels quicker. However, after a while he'll hunch over and groan in pain allowing the other player to attack. |

In Prey (2017), drinking alcohol will give you a temporary boost to melee damage and immunity to Fear. It also causes tipsiness, but there's a chipset that negates the downsides. | |

In Bulletstorm, drinking alcohol will cause your character's aim to go awry, and his vision to blur, but to counterbalance it, every kill you score while intoxicated will net you a score bonus. Drinking 20 bottles (that must be found throughout the game) gives you an achievement/trophy. On the other hand, inversely, just shooting the bottle gives you some immediate points without having to mess your vision up, and shooting 20 also gives you an achievement/trophy. | |

In HoboWars, many of the mixed drinks give the player a temporary status effect that gives them special abilities. Having a high BAC level also allows the player to dodge some blows, as well as hit the opponent in a "very sensitive" area, doing additional damage. It also increases the chance at which skills are fired. | |

In Terraria, you can drink ale (made from a tap) or saké (bought from the Travelling Merchant), which lowers your defense, but increases your speed, power, and Critical Hit chance with melee weapons. Later in the game the armor debuff is negligible, but the bonuses scale with your weapon's power, making it a desirable combat boost. | |

In Catherine, the more Vincent drinks at the bar, the faster he moves in the Nightmare stages. And since ordering drinks doesn't subtract any time from the Bar stages, there's no reason not to fill up on every available liquor and unlock the trivias as well. | |

Heroes of Newerth has Drunken Master, whose skills are more effective if he is sufficiently drunk enough. The effect itself went through multiple major reworks. Originally, he had to channel to drink to enhance his abilities, then it was changed to gaining charges passively (and from enemy hero deaths, for some reason) and letting him chug down his stored drinks to restore health, then it was changed to not enhancing his abilities at all and was just used to heal up. Then the hero went through a period where the drinking aspect wasn't part of his skillset, but now back to like how it used to be but with a little bit of every previous versions mashed together: He now drinks to reduce the cooldown of his abilities and gain drunk charges, which grant evasion and debuff resistance and can be used to enhance his abilities, and it heals a bit of health whenever a charge is used. | |
