Games from other cultures: A game from Georgia


No place for third between the two


Playground:  INDOOR - OUTDOOR

Development and Rules:

This game comes from Georgia using even number of students between 18-24. It requires fast reflexes and speed between the competitors but also gives a lot of joy to the players.

The student’s gather in pairs creating two concentric circles with a radius of one meter difference. Two students are back from the outer circle. The one is the hunter and the other one the hunted.

The game begins with the hunter running trying to touch the hunted. If he succeeds, then they change roles.

The student being chased has the right, exactly before he is touched by the hunter to enter the inner circle and sit in front of a couple. Then the student behind the outer circle becomes the chased one and he runs around the circle in order not to be touched by the hunter.  if he manages to sit in front of a couple who is standing then he wins

When the inner circle is completed with all participating students sitting, all of them stand up and continue playing again.

Try it and have fun!
