Game principle

• Playground:
  • 2 territories, each with a flag + “base” at a similar distance
  • a small neutral “DMZ” border with “prison” for tagged players
  • (flag could also be hidden by players, not recommended)
• Game goal: Bring the other team’s flag across the border
• Stop capturing the flags only by tagging:
  • Players can only be tagged in the opposing territory
  • BOTH players (captors, prisoners) walk to prison, caught players stay for e.g. 2 min, captors can touch the prison and continue playing.

Materials

• markings for playing fields, boarder, prison
• “tag method”
  • e.g. clothespin with fabric scrap: strapped to the back of player, catcher must pull it off (tagging becomes controllable/proofable)
  • e.g. balls (alternative to taggin, but difficult to control)
• (jersies for referees/teams)

• A new timer labelled with a random letter can be added if the name field is empty. This allows for a quick start of the timer.
• The letter is assigned to a prisoner on their arrival.
• When timers are finished, the letter is read out, that the prisoner knows when to leave the prison.
• The app also reads out expired timers aloud. (Please turn on your device’s speakers)
