Statues

Brief Description

A tag game where tagged players become statues and can be freed through corresponding actions.

Group Size: 6+ players
Difficulty: Medium
Materials: None
Game Duration: Approx. 6 minutes

Game Description:

Depending on the group size, an appropriate number of taggers will be chosen. Whenever a tagger tags a player, they can choose from three statues: Stick, Gate, or Stone. They call out one of the three statues to the tagged player.
If you become the Stone, you crouch down as small as possible, like a stone on the ground. A free player can then jump over you to free you. If you are tagged and assigned the Stick statue, you stand stiff as a board with your arms stretched upwards. The Stick can be freed by someone walking around them once. The player assigned the Gate stands with legs spread wide and can be freed by someone crawling through their legs. Anyone who is currently freeing someone cannot be tagged!

The statues can be changed to other figures depending on the theme and the group. There are no limits to creativity; entirely different ways of freeing players can also be invented.
