Paranoid

OBJECT - Protect your flag!

GAME TYPE - Elimination games.

WHO'S IT FOR - Group Three. There should be at least three people playing at a time, but it's more fun with more.

WHAT YOU NEED - Some type of flag for each player, and each player should have two. Flags should be loosely attached at the belt line so it can be easily pulled off. Also, you should have a boundaried area to play in, not too big, but big enough so people can move around. A circle is preferable.

HOW TO PLAY:
  1. Attach flags to player's waists. They should be easy to pull off. Each player gets two flags.
  2. This is an everyone for themselves game, so players will be trying to capture other people's flags while protecting their own.
  3. Once both a player's flags have been taken, they are out and must leave the area immediately.
  4. Players may not stray out of the boundaries you have established. If a player does go outside the area, they are penalized one flag.

The game is called Paranoid because you're trying to keep everyone in your sight to keep your own flag safe. Players will find it difficult to keep their eyes everywhere at once. You may want to play smaller games with at least three people before working up to an all out game with everyone.

THIS WORKS ON - Strategy (trying to outthink your opponents), competition (trying to be the last one standing).
