Shinjuku Copabowl

With its newly renovated lanes on the fourth floor and blacklit ones on the third, Copabowl is an especially funky bowling alley – plus it gives you the option of adding a few stakes to your game to liven things up a bit. Its ‘batsugame’ offers a series of punishments that the player with the lowest score will have to face upon losing the game. For ¥500, you can pick a formidable punishment from hard-to-swallow concoctions to edible locusts. Sentence your opponent to an even more gruesome challenge for ¥2,500, which will expand your choices of edible insects, including scorpions.
