Step 1. Group at least six players; the number of participants must be even

The more people there are, the more fun the game will be. Divide the players into two teams of the same number and decide which team will hide first; the other team will have to try to capture the opposite team; also choose the captains and two bases close to each other (for example, some benches).

Step 3. It is recommended that you wear dark colored clothing, such as brown, gray, dark blue or camouflage colors

Avoid black as it tends to make your body stand out when you are near other objects. Do not wear brightly colored clothes even if you play during the day.

Step 10. Choose a game mode:

Captains Rules or Majority Rules. In the first method, if the leader of the hiding team arrives at the base without being caught, then his team wins. In the Majority method (the best known and funniest one), if most of the players on a team reach the base without being caught, then the team wins.

Step 11. Make sure the teams are balanced

If one of the players is not running very fast or if he has asthma, pair him with a faster person.

Step 12. Hiding in the backyard, inside a car, in your house or garage and going beyond the boundaries (before you begin, set the boundaries together) is against the rules of the game; if a player breaks the rules he is automatically eliminated and must return to base

Step 13. Set a time limit within which the team can hide and return to base in order to play more games before it's time to go home

For example, 1-10 minutes of time are ideal; make sure all players are aware of this limit.

Advice

  • Try to make as little noise as possible so as not to be found.
  • Do not wear too good clothes that could get damaged or dirty during the game.
  • If you see a hunter approaching your hiding place, try to escape unnoticed; or, if escape is not possible, stand still and try not to be seen. Escape as soon as you can.
  • Be careful not to go beyond the established boundaries so as not to ruin the game.
  • Use diversions to distract hunters, for example, bang a garage door and escape.
  • Don't stay in the same hiding place all the time; move all the time.
  • Make sure you are not breaking the law and possibly not playing too late in the evening so as not to disturb the neighborhood.
  • Don't be afraid to play in the streets, but be careful to stay close to buildings to prevent car lights from revealing your location.
  • If your hiding place is very safe, stay where you are, otherwise keep moving.

Warnings

  • Don't play in landfills.
  • Stay away from automatic lights.
  • Do not play on the main streets and be careful to only cross if the street is clear.
  • Do not approach dogs that may bark and reveal your hiding place.
  • Don't bring any valuables with you to avoid losing them while running.
  • Don't trespass on private property, let alone someone else's garden.
  • Bring a drink with you to keep yourself hydrated.
  • If you play in the evening, avoid areas you don't know.
  • Have fun!
