One team wears bandannas tied around their arms. When the game begins, each team is at its home base. The captain of Team 1 sends a runner into the Chivy. Then the captain of Team 1 sends in another runner to go after the Team 2 runner. This process continues until every player is attempting to tag an opposing runner.
Players are safe only on their respective home bases.
A tagged player goes to the opposing team's prison. A prisoner can be freed if tagged by a teammate. The winning team is the one that manages to keep all opponents in prison at the same time. This game also is played in a large open area. One player is designated the Shepherd, another as the Wolf.
