Game Description:¶

A simple game of tag. Depending on the group size, one or more taggers are designated. Once a person is tagged, they become a bomb.

They stand with their legs spread wide and their arms extended downwards. They count aloud, "1, 2, 3, 4, 5."
With each number, they raise their arms a little until they meet above their head at the count of 5.

Then the bomb "explodes": the person is completely out of the game and squats down (or leaves the playing area).

A "ticking bomb" can be rescued by another player who comes and taps them on the shoulders from behind with both hands.
