HOW TO PLAY

Start here.

YOU’LL NEEDNothing
  1. 1Mark the boundary, choose a legal tag zone such as below the shoulders, and make everyone It.
  2. 2A hand tag scores one point; if two tags happen together, pause and settle which one counts with rock-paper-scissors.
  3. 3Play for exactly three minutes. The highest score wins; ties share the win or play one sudden-death tag.
  4. 4Reset every score before the next round and change the legal tag zone if the group wants a fresh challenge.

REMIX THE RULES

Complete twists.

Point transferEveryone begins with three points. A hand tag transfers one point from the tagged player to the tagger; nobody can fall below zero. If two people tag simultaneously, use rock-paper-scissors to decide the transfer. Stop after three minutes, and the player with the most points wins the round.
