"1, 2, 3, 4, I declare a thumb "BZZZZZT!""
"One, Two, Three, Four I declare a Thumb War!" is a battle cry I'm sure we've all heard countless times. Now thanks to this great Shocking Thumb War game it's not just a past-time for small children who don't want to admit they're really just wanting an excuse to hold hands, it really is deserving of the title "War". The shocking thumb war Game consists of three seperate games testing speed, reflexes, and endurance in a kind of triatholon.
The three games included are:
- 50/50
First up a game of speed and stamina to get those digits loosened up. Simple concept, first to press their button 50 times, wins. The slow coach gets the shock. Remember although "Slow and Steady" may win most races, in this instance we can't imagine one competitor falling asleep halfway through, so you're better off being fast and frantic if you don't want to feel the volts.
- Rebound
Next up is a game of reflexes. Again it's a simple concept n LED wil light up and 'bounce' between the competitors, the aim being too tap your button as the LED gets to you in order to return it to your adversary, like some kind of twisted tennis. Of course the more times each competitor hits the button the faster the LED moves back and forth, the first player to miss will get the shock.
- Endurance To finish there is a simple contest of endurance and down right stubborness with each contestant getting a shock in turn with the first to let go being the loser. Of course this starts off small, but over the six rounds the intensity increases, and before you know it you'll be getting enough juice to down an Elephant*
