One player is chosen to be the guardian. The guardian must guard their treasure (for example, 15 stones), which is placed within a marked-out area on the floor. The guardian is blindfolded and must defend themselves with a soft object, which they can use to fend off attacks.

The other players take turns trying to steal an item from the treasure without the guardian noticing. If the guardian becomes suspicious, he or she must strike at the thief. If the guardian hits the thief, the thief is out of the game and must return the stolen item. If the guardian misses, the thief continues.

The winner is the player who has collected the most treasure.
