You can add the spice consequence to any game, but for whatever reason, Crazy 8 Countdown was the game of choice for my buddies in University. As you probably have already surmised, Crazy 8 Countdown for Spices involves the loser of the game eating a heaping spoonful of a pre-selected spice.
Here are the rules to Crazy 8 Countdown if you're not already familiar with them. It's very similar to UNO, with players attempting to be the first to get rid of all their cards. Players are initially dealt eight cards each and when a player sheds all of his or her cards, they get dealt seven cards. When those are all gone, they get six cards, and so forth until they get to zero and are safe from spicy hell.
Last player still holding cards, loses.

English harbour casino. Doing a shot of spice may not sound like such a bad thing. But I've been on the receiving end of that spoon more than once and trust me: it ain't fun.
I remember my garlic loss well. Taking my punishment over the kitchen sink (in case I threw it all up), the garlic immediately sucked all the moisture out of my mouth. I struggled to control my gag reflex and my body's instinct to spit the stuff out. Somehow I managed to choke the powder down.
My sweat that day reeked of garlic. And even after three or four attempts of brushing my teeth and rinsing with the strongest mouth wash money can buy, my breath still smelled awful. To borrow from the late, great Dr. Seuss, the three words that best described me were as follows, and I quote: 'Stink. Stank. Stunk.' The only fringe benefit I suppose was that I didn't get a mosquito bite for days.
So if you're looking for a fun to 'spice' up your next games night, consider adding a dash of awesome, be it in the form of oregano, ginger or cayenne pepper.

Whist Rules
Free Play Crazy 8 Games Online
Whist is a simple trick taking game, played in pairs. The players sitting across from each other are a team and together they try to get as many tricks as possible.
Dealing and starting
Online casino s. Each player gets dealt 13 cards. The first player to start is chosen randomly, in the next round the person to start will be the next person to the left of the person who started the current round. (1 round is 13 tricks, i.e. starting a new round is when all the cards are finished and are dealt again).
Trumps
In each round there is a special trump suit, whose cards are considered higher than all the other suits. Every fifth round there is no trump. The order of trumps goes: Hearts, Spades, Diamonds, Clubs, No Trump.
Playing
A player leading a trick can put out a card in any suit he wants, even the trump suit. The players that follow must put out cards in the same suit if they have at least one. If they have no cards in the same suit they may put out any card they want. The player who puts out the highest card in the suit takes the trick, unless someone has put out a trump card, in which case the highest trump card takes it. The player who takes the trick will then lead in the next trick.

Scoring
After a round is finished the score is calculated. The tricks of each team are counted, and they get a point for each trick over 6 tricks. So if Mike and Lisa get 8 tricks and You and Bill get 5, then Mike and Lisa get 2 points but You and Bill get no points. Points are tracked between rounds and the first team to get 7 points wins the entire game. Since there are 13 tricks in each round and you get points for number of tricks above 6 that means that if you get all 13 tricks you will be able to win in one round.
