List five good things about the questioner!
Have the game winner list five good things about the person receiving the penalty.
We don’t often get the chance to tell our friends or partners what we like about them directly.
Even if we think it, it can be pretty embarrassing to say it face-to-face.
But that’s exactly why it works as a penalty! Use this penalty to encourage honest expressions of feelings.
It may be embarrassing for the speaker, but it will make the receiver happy and give both of you a great opportunity to grow closer.
A food review of something that tastes bad
Punishments like having to eat or drink something nasty are pretty common, but most of the time they end with just a reaction right after the drink.
This time, we want you to report in a way that clearly conveys to the audience exactly how and why it tastes bad.
wink
A wink is similar to a blink, but doing it when all eyes are on you can feel embarrassing.
It’s just opening and closing an eyelid once, but it kind of gives off a “Look at cute little me!” vibe, which makes you shy, right? That’s exactly why it’s a great pick for a quick and gentle penalty game! Have them strike a predetermined cute pose and nail a perfect wink! There are quite a few people who can’t wink, so watching them try their hardest might actually be even funnier.
wotagei
When you think of penalty games, many people probably imagine something embarrassing or difficult.
So this time, I recommend a penalty game where the person performs YOASOBI’s “Idol” using otagei.
The song “Idol” has become famous worldwide, so many people will know it.
Since dancing the entire song is quite challenging, having them recreate just the hyped-up chorus is more than enough for a penalty.
It’s fun and exciting for the audience to watch, too.
If you decide to use this as a penalty game, be sure to prepare glow sticks, which are essential for otagei!
Talk about the biggest failure of my life
How about “sharing the biggest failure of your life” as a punishment game idea? Everyone has experienced failures or embarrassing moments, right? Talking about those experiences in front of others—within the limits of what you’re comfortable sharing—makes for quite a punishment game.
In this video, comedian Rei Maruyama humorously shares “part-time job failure stories.” Let’s turn those failures you’ve never been able to talk about into laughs as a punishment game! The key to making it fun for everyone is not forcing people to talk about things they don’t want to, but having them share failures within their comfort zone.
Dance with all your might
Here’s a punishment game that would surely make adults, in particular, feel embarrassed.
Most people rarely have chances to dance in front of others, so if they’re suddenly told, “Dance your heart out!”, they’ll be flustered, and many will probably end up showing off some goofy moves! To keep the person being punished from having time to think about what kind of dance to do, announce the punishment, immediately play some upbeat music, and have them start dancing right away!
Magic at first glance
How about “Magic at First Sight” as a penalty game at drinking parties or banquets? As the name suggests, you perform a magic trick without any practice at all.
You’re probably thinking, “Is it even possible to do magic without practicing?” That’s where this video comes in handy.
It reveals the secrets behind simple card tricks that you can do without practice! The explanations are easy to follow, so even first-timers can perform the tricks with ease.
And even if you don’t master them right away and mess up, that in itself will probably liven things up.
Consider this as a penalty-game idea you can use for reference.
