Painstation

No PlayStation but a PainStation

Painstation is an art object and arcade game based on Pong developed by the artists' group, "/////////fur//// art entertainment interfaces", with pain feedback..While the underlying artistic concept remained consistent over the years, the group continues to improve on the system.

PainStation was created by two German designers. It's almost a normal Pong game. But when you lose you don't just feel the dissapointment, you also feel pain. Your left hand is positioned on the Pain Execution Unit and missing the ball results in different types of pain. You may feel heat, punches or electroshocks of varying duration depending where the ball hits. The game ends when one of the players decides that he had enough pain.
