A penalty game that livens up the after-party
At wedding after-parties or the second stop of a night out, it’s not just about enjoying food—people also get hyped up with classic party games.
This time, we’ve put together a list of fun penalty games that are sure to liven up any after-party.
Prizes for the winners are great, but why not also throw in some hilarious penalties?
Punishment games that liven up the after-party (1–10)
butt-letter
Why is it so embarrassing to write letters with your butt, I wonder? It’s a classic party penalty game, and the fact that it’s still around shows how popular it remains—so it’s a great recommendation for an after-party punishment game, too.
It seems there are versions where you draw pictures, not just letters!
to be tickled
Isn’t this the simplest yet fun and classic penalty game? It’s not so bad for tough people, but for those who are weak to it, it can be pretty agonizing.
You set a time limit and, during that period, you can’t resist and just get tickled continuously—a hellish kind of punishment.
doodles on the face
It’s a simple penalty game where you draw on someone’s face.
Just doodling on a face is fun on its own, but it gets even more exciting if you compete to see who can make the funniest doodle.
Oil-based markers can be a hassle to remove, so use water-based ones.
Change to a weird phone case
These days, everyone has a smartphone, and many people probably use them with cases.
This is a punishment game where you have to switch your phone case to something weird.
It could be something impractical like in the video, or, for example, a pink character-themed case for a man, which I think would be funny too.
Face wrapped in plastic wrap
It’s that game you see on TV where you press your face against plastic wrap and try to break through it.
Watching someone desperately try to tear it with their face is hilarious—the expressions are so funny and ridiculous you can’t help but laugh.
As a penalty game at an afterparty, it always gets the crowd going, especially when an unexpected person does it!
Wasabi and mustard in the nose
This is a video testing which packs more punch: mustard or wasabi when put up the nose.
It’s basically a full-on punishment game.
Rather than a showdown between mustard and wasabi, it’s more like a battle to see whether a human can withstand them! Please don’t push yourself too hard.
cosplay
It’s the classic punishment game of doing cosplay.
These days, many karaoke places even have costumes available, so I think it’s a perfect penalty for an after-party.
There’s also the fun possibility that you might end up cross-dressing.
to get a weird hairstyle
A simple punishment game I recommend is to get a weird hairstyle.
If you’re hesitant to do it with your own hair, using extensions like in the video makes it easy.
Of course, if you’re fine using your real hair, that’s even more fun.
Taking a photo of the person with the weird hairstyle will make them feel the sting of defeat even more.
funny face
It’s a penalty game where you have to show a funny face in front of everyone.
These days, lots of people post silly faces on social media, but there are still many who feel embarrassed about making a truly ridiculous face.
Not only do you have to perform it, but taking a photo leaves a record and makes the sense of defeat even stronger.
Guess the foot smell
It’s a punishment game where you have to guess whose feet smell.
The one who has to sniff the socks is supposed to be the punished one, but in a way, the person making them sniff is being punished too, right? Humans are strange creatures— even while saying “Ugh, it stinks!” we somehow end up getting excited about it.
Still, it would be quite a shock if someone said your feet smell really bad…
