Subject: Games You Made Up And Played

Written By: Sagnastian on 08/12/02 at 11:48 p.m.

no this is not including games on here, am talking games you and youor friends made up to play as a child or still do today.  here are a few we use to play that we made up.


Hide 'n' Find:  basically just like hide n seek.  the difference is is has to played inside with no lights, that means in the dark.  there is no safe.  one person is it and the others hide,  the first person that is found in the dark is it.  there is no counting also in this game, when everyone is ready one person yells "'READY!"  (hint: this game is best played inthe basement)

Jump Tag:  a game for an above-ground pool with a good size deck.  almost like tag.  one person is it and the others must jump over the person that is it without getting tagged.  one rule, the person that is it cannot jump backwards to tag the person.  they must jump straight up in the air or sideways.

Stick Ball:  am sure most of yous heard of this.  just like baseball but played with a broomstick instead of a bat.  and you do not run bases,  the amount is based on where the ball is hit to what base you got to or how many points you scored.

Apart from playing Vingt-et-un with Monopoly money, rather than having to double up with the real stuff, I can't think of anything novel I ever did with board games, or anything else.

A lot of the time when I played Hide and seek in the dark, we always walked around while the seeker was seeking. Whether you did this too... (?)

My friends and I did hide and find in the dark. Only we called it "scare and go seek." Had a ghostly experience as a result of one session..... :o
