For this game, you should have at least six participants, and preferably no more than three to four at each house corner. One participant is 'it' and tries to tag one of the others. Those being chased can avoid being tagged by running to one of the house corners. When a new participant enters a corner, one of those already standing there must run out again. This person can now be tagged. If you are tagged, you become 'it', and the game continues in the same way.

Variation

The game is also well-suited for ice skating and skiing (without poles), within a clearly defined area.
