So fingers on the buzzers or rather hands on the joysticks and watch the tension mounts; when the right light turns, green each player hits the red button on their controller in the fastest time possible!

If you have quick responses and reflexes and get a thrill out of watching your 3 fellow players suffer harmless little electric shocks, it's a real winner. Some may try to read too much into this new trend; arguing that modern society has so anaesthetised its youth that they are seeking to break through the numbness by any means possible. Various means of incorporating the devices into drinking games are suggested and pictures sent in by appreciative fans more often than not show players with flushed cheeks and bleary eyes - some far gone enough to subject their tongues to the shock. Such an argument would ignore the fact that young men have always sought novel ways to cause pain to their peers. The most surprising thing about this was my immediate desire to have another go - this time with more players.

When one tank is shot by another, it loses a light while its controller receives an electric shock from their handset (Velcro straps are provided to prevent handsets being dropped and broken).

But do you and your friends have the nerve to outlast each other when the shocks are high and the victims are many? They're real ice-breakers and have proved massively popular at a number of bar events we've organised around the country. Shocking Roulette, on the other hand, is a game of chance; each player puts their finger in one of four holes to receive a shock at random. In Never Say Never Again, Sean Connery as James Bond is challenged by the arch villain Largo to play Domination, a game similar to Shocking Tanks, in which failure is punished by electric shocks. He detaches one of the four curved handsets, which lend the apparatus its cruel, claw-like appearance, and sits back with a smile on his face.Where such games are heading may hinge on the success of one of the company's latest variation, Shocking Tanks, which provides each player with a remote-controlled tank topped by six lights. As the evening progressed, the air filled with helpless laughter, shrieks of pain and the occasional buzzing handset flung away on instinct. Between these extremes, interactive television could pick up on the technology with thousands of people tuning into The Weakest Link and Who Wants to be a Millionaire? This hit sensation game s perfect for a bit of office downtime or a way to liven up that dinner party that has taken a dive after he After Eights have been passed around.

Because the designers didn’t want the game to be dull, they included different levels of shocks so you can really prove your speed, or just pick on the consistently slow player! this electric shock game is great fun for all, the intensity of the shock can be adjusted so as not to scare children. com, an online gadget retailer that sells both games, offers these words of wisdom: "Electrocution is no laughing matter, especially when you're on the receiving end. Please note, whilst the Electric Shock game is completely harmless, we do not recommend that it is played by those suffering from epilepsy, are pregnant or are reliant on electrical devices such as pacemakers.Before launching, we sent samples to trading standards companies and had nothing but positive responses," says Lee Eckworth, a spokesman for Paladone. When you are a twentysomething male and you are told by another twentysomething male to push something, pull something, taste something, smell something or to interact in any way with anything, it is only reasonable to expect the results to be unpleasant.
