Soggy biscuit is a masturbation game, played particulary in schools. The players stand around a biscuit and masturbate with the intention of ejaculating onto it. The last person to ejaculate has to eat the biscuit. Although the origins of the term are unclear, it is thought to have originated in Australia in the 1960's[1], and is now a widely known concept, at least in the Anglophone world [2]. The descriptive term 'soggy biscuit' or 'biscuit game' may be employed as a euphemism for an embarassing activity. Although (since the game as defined in its strictest sense does not require mutual masturbation) 'soggy biscuit' is not necessarily associated with homosexuality, the idea and practice of the game is in keeping with the spirit of adolescent sexual exploration associated by many (at least in the UK) with public schools. [3].

The terms 'soggy biscuit' and 'biscuit game' may be broadly interchangeable with other, similar concepts elsewhere in the world, such as 'circle jerk'[citation needed] or 'soggy cracker'[citation needed] .

Although the terminology may differ slightly, the notability of the game is such that variations on the theme are referred to commonly in popular culture, examples including Stephen Fry's The Liar and Richard Curtis and Ben Elton's Blackadder.
