Description

This is a territorial game based on the game British Bulldog. You need to get to the other side without being tagged. One player starts in the middle with double the amount of hit points, the remaining players have a minimal amount. Each time a player is tagged out they get respawned and join the player in the middle. Last player is the winner. If the center player is tagged out he gets respawned and the first player tagged out returns to the traversing side.

Setup

1. Describe the objective of the game to the players.
2. Determine who will begin in the middle.
3. Have the remaining players go to one side of the play field.
4. Enable the taggers.
5. Have the middle player go hide in the play area.
6. Blow horn to start the game.

Objective

Be the last player alive while alternating trips back and forth along the play field.

Tips

Keep the number of life points low to encourage survival and some realism.
