My review is indeed incorrect, I bought it second hand and there wasn’t bags provided with it. I’ll make sure to correct my review on my website Fantastic product !

It’s great to see the Pain Game on sale again. I sold mine but wish I hadn’t so I’ll be buying it again. Happy days.

Oh, I do like this. The horror feeling of the idea of the nail! But so good too! Saw a guy at Butlins do similar when I was little.

This is Jon’s greatest release to date in my professional opinion and will remain a permanent fixture in my show. Packs small, plays huge and will undoubtedly last forever. Comes very highly recommended.

Does anyone know where to get the brown paper bags? I've finally run out of my stock.

Hi, I am reviving this post because I have two quick questions, one I haven't seen asked, the other was answered but I wasn't successful. I hope this also may help someone else that is wondering the same.
1) Between the "Pain Game", and "Nailed It", one looks like the Spike is loaded from the top and sticks there, the other looks like the Spike is loaded from the bottom actually going through the block. Is that correct that in the Pain Game the Spike goes through the block, and not attached to the top, or are they both the same process? 2) Where can you get these "Bottom Block Bags", I clicked on links, and searched for them, and have not located where these can be procured. Are these bags crucial to use, and will just a paper lunch bag work, or are paper lunch bags too small? Thanks to whomever answer... |

In Jon's advertising video you clearly see that, as you yourself wrote: ...the spike is loaded from the bottom, actually going through the block The subtly with spike head seen on the underside, locking the spike in place, is a nice touch, and a clever detail from Jon! And likewise,an other small detail I like, is that, at the end, after the spike is revealed, you casually pull out the spike from the underside of the wooden block. 2. You can order more bags from Jon's webb site. And they are also easily found on Ebay, Amazone etc. Regarding the size of the wooden blocks to get proper sized bags: I do not see any problems here, you just measure them after purchasing the effect from Jon! Right? (And by the way, I ordered the effect from Jon the other day and I am right now eagerly waiting for them to arrive.) |

OK, I officially have the "Pain Game", but I would like to hear from someone who has this, or did have it. I received the blocks of wood, but they do not fit snugly like I thought they would. There is about a quarter inch gap on the side width wise, and length wise. I was not expecting that because the gap seems to make it more difficult when trying to do a smooth pick up from inside the bag. So did I receive the correct bags with this? So if the fit is not critical, why couldn't I use any bags that are close?

When you pick upp an 'empty' block, (block without a spike) it is easy to get fingers and the thumb between the block and (the inside of) the bag sides go get a grip. If it was a snug fit at the bottom it might be difficult to get a quick grip. And, at the end, to show the block with the spike, you take hold of the spike and lift it out together with the block. So, for me, this works fine... |

Would anyone be able to direct me to the instructions for The Pain Game? I purchased it a year or so ago and am prepping to use it in a show. Obviously, I know how it works but would love to rewatch some of handling tips and suggestions. I've been spoiled by Vanishing Inc saving my instructions that I'm kicking myself for misplacing the link to this one.

Anyone source the correct size bag in the US?
It's all in the reflexes.
