excruciatingly painful shoulder massage
Getting someone to give you a shoulder massage feels really good, doesn’t it? When they use just the right amount of pressure, it’s so pleasant that some people might even drift off to sleep.
But if someone with really strong hands does it… just imagining it makes you wince, right? Especially if your shoulders are stiff—when they’re really tight, even a light massage can hurt; and on the flip side, people who say their shoulders aren’t stiff at all sometimes find massages painful, too.
Still, once the ‘punishment game’ is over, you might end up feeling refreshed!
The sweetest candy in the world
Have you heard of an Indian sweet called Gulab Jamun? It’s said to be the sweetest dessert in the world.
If you love sweet things, you might find it irresistible, but some people may not be fond of it.
Since it’s a bit of a novelty, try using it as a dare in a game.
Get some side dishes from someone’s bento (lunch box)
Doesn’t it take quite a bit of courage to ask someone to share something with you—especially to say, “Could I have some of your food?” This dare requires exactly that kind of courage: “Get someone to share their lunch side dishes with you.” Prepare an empty lunch box, ask people to share their side dishes or rice, and complete your bento.
If it’s lunchtime, your chances of success seem higher and you might end up with a delicious-looking bento, but at any other time, it’s the kind of dare that just gives you a bad feeling (lol).
Even if it’s not to your taste, it’s something you received—so let’s enjoy every bite!

sing while tickling one’s nose with a paper twist (hana-koyori)
It’s common to have someone sing as a penalty game, but on its own that’s not very interesting, right? In this penalty game, the person has to perform a song in front of everyone, and while they’re singing, their nostrils get tickled with a twisted tissue.
You can easily make the little tickler out of a tissue, so as long as you have tissues, you can do this anywhere.
Watching it might make you feel ticklish too, so you might even sneeze! Now then, can they manage to finish an entire song while being tickled?
Drink a horribly bad-tasting mixed drink
A quick and tasty? It’s the perfect punishment game for when you’re hanging out at a family restaurant.
Don’t you usually get the drink bar when you go to a family restaurant? For this game, you mix small amounts of several drinks from the drink bar and then have to drink the original concoction you made! You’d think it must be delicious since you’re just mixing tasty drinks to begin with, but there are definitely combinations that work and ones that don’t…
No leaving leftovers allowed, and it’s also fun to guess which drinks are in the mix!
Pocky game
How about turning the classic party game, the Pocky Game, into a penalty game? Normally, two people eat a Pocky stick from both ends, and the person who takes their mouth off the Pocky loses.
But since this is a team penalty game, let’s change it a bit: for a count of ten, neither player is allowed to take their mouth off the Pocky.
Even between people of the same sex, no matter how close they are, staring into each other’s eyes from just a Pocky-stick’s length away is super embarrassing, right? Keep your eyes open and keep eating for ten seconds!
butt bat (a prank/hazing act of hitting someone’s buttocks with a bat)
It’s a simple penalty game where the loser gets their butt slapped with a bat.
The pain is intense, and while the butt is a sturdy area covered with fat, you could cause an injury if you don’t hold back, so please strike the butt with moderate force.
