Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong will deliver his 13th National Day Rally (NDR) address at 6.40pm tonight, at the Institute of Technical Education (ITE) College Central.

This will be his fourth rally at ITE College Central.

PM Lee gave a sneak preview of what he'll be touching on Friday -- Singapore's future, the economy and improving the elected presidency --, and urged Singaporeans to "take a break from hunting Pokemon", as he "explore our plans for the next 50 years.”

Here is a drinking game guide to keep you going during the nearly three-hour speech marathon.

The rules: Get your Tiger beer ready.
