  • How to Play

     

    The referee spins the spinner, then calls out the body part and the color that the arrow points to. For example, the  referee may call out: "Right hand, red." All players, at the same time, must then try to follow the referee's directions as explained below.  

     
    • Each player must try to place the called-out body part on a  vacant  circle of the called-out color. For [example, if the referee  calls out "Right hand, red," each player must try to place a  right hand on any vacant red circle.  
    • If your called-out hand or foot is already on a circle  of the called-out color, you must try to move it to another circle  of the same color.  
    • There can never be more than one hand or foot on any one  circle. If two or more players reach for the same circle, the  referee must decide which player got there first. The other  player(s) must find another vacant circle of the same color.  
    • Never remove your hand or foot from a circle unless you're directed to by the referee  after a spin. Exception: You may lift a hand or foot to allow another hand or foot to pass  by, as long as you announce it to the referee beforehand, and replace it on its circle immediately afterward.  
    • If all 6 circles of a color are already covered, the referee must spin again until a different color can be called  out.
     
     Strategy: Try moving toward an opponent's portion of the mat, forcing the player  to go over or under you to place a hand or foot!

  • Being Eliminated

     

    Any player who falls, or touches the mat with an elbow or knee, is immediately out of the game. (If you feel that a new position is  impossible, or will cause you to fall, you may elminiate yourself.)  

    In a 2-player game, the game ends and the remaining player wins.  In a 3-player game, the remaining two players keep playing until one player is eliminated and the  remaining player wins.
