    Blind man's buff. At first one person is chosen and blindfolded and he must hunt until he catches some one. The person he catches is then blindfolded.
    For dummies one person stands at a wall and the others stand at the opposite wall. The latter would think of something to do and they would go to the person at the other wall and act as if doing that thing. Should the single player guess what they are doing the other must run to avoid being caught before getting back to the wall where they first stood. Any person caught must stand beside the single player.
