Skinship-type punishment games (1–10)
lap pillow
It’s a romance-themed penalty game that brings out maximum shyness and heart-pounding excitement.
Both the person sitting and the one lending their lap are likely to feel embarrassed, so the mood naturally gets lively.
If you set rules like a time limit of just 10 seconds, it lowers the barrier and makes it something more people can enjoy.
Whether it’s just friendly fun or a hint of romance, the onlookers can enjoy imagining the possibilities—that’s the charm of this prompt.
It also looks great in photos, so it’s perfect for making memories.
You’ll see expressions you don’t normally get to see, making it an ideal penalty game for events.
Piggyback squats

If you want to get closer to someone of the opposite sex, this penalty game is a sure bet! The idea is for the man to do a few squats while giving the woman a piggyback.
If the guy is on the lighter side, flipping the roles could make it even more fun.
When you need to prepare a penalty game for a mixer or party, this prompt will liven things up! Of course, it also works well as a lighthearted penalty between couples and might even bring you two closer.
And it’s not just squats—penalty games that put stress on your muscles, like push-ups or sit-ups, are highly effective as punishments, so they’re definitely recommended.
Skinship-type punishment games (11–20)
lovers’ hand-holding (interlaced fingers)
Let’s turn the “lovers’ hand-holding” you’d like to try once you’re dating into a penalty game! Just holding hands would end too quickly, so you can raise the bar a bit with rules like “stay like that for a few minutes” or “share how it felt.” The person in first place should choose who to do it with.
If the loser’s crush is among the members, maybe you can play Cupid for them, too.
Interlacing your fingers and squeezing tight—this lovers’ hand-holding is the perfect embarrassing penalty game!
Hold hands for 〇 minutes straight
As a penalty game, having someone hold hands continuously for a set number of minutes sounds like it could really liven things up! The emotional temperature might also change depending on who they’re holding hands with.
If it’s with someone of the opposite sex, they might suddenly become self-conscious and feel embarrassed.
The key is to decide who the person receiving the penalty will hold hands with while considering their relationship with the other person.
Avoid pairings that might be too burdensome, set a time limit, and have fun.
By weaving in a bit of humor and being creative, you can keep things from getting too serious and maintain a bright, upbeat atmosphere.
Give it a try!
front hug
In the West, hugs are often used as a form of greeting, but in Japan, the custom of hugging like in Western countries may not be very common.
If you’re doing a front hug as part of a penalty game, it’s best to do it with consideration for the other person.
Decide on the length of the hug and keep the mood light so no one feels uncomfortable.
If you feel embarrassed, doing a front hug among close friends might be a fun option.
Enjoy it while remembering to be respectful and considerate of the other person.
tickling
How about setting a time limit in advance and going all out with tickling? It’s a classic punishment game, and since you don’t need any props, it’s easy to incorporate.
Try finding the other person’s weak spots, like the soles of their feet or their sides, and give them a tickle.
They might burst into loud laughter they don’t usually make, or, if they’re not good with tickling, they might thrash around a lot.
It’s a punishment game that brings out a side of them you don’t normally see—but be careful not to overdo it and make them mad!
Titanic pose
You all know the iconic pose from the 1997 film Titanic, right? It’s the one where a man stands behind a woman with her arms outstretched, placing his hands on her waist to support her.
It’s a very moving scene in the movie, but actually doing it in real life can be a bit embarrassing.
And that’s exactly why it makes a good penalty game! It can make your heart race a little when done by a man and a woman, but it’s not so embarrassing that it’s uncomfortable, so it’s safe even when there are people you’re meeting for the first time.
