Red Light, Green Light

Player A stands with their back to the other players, who form a line at a proper distance (~5 meter) from player A. The goal of the other players is to reach and tag player A without player A noticing when they move. When player A calls ”Green light” the other players get to move closer to player A. But when player A calls ”Red light!”, player A turns around and the other players must freeze in place. If player A catches anyone still moving, they have to go back to the starting line. Then player A turns around again calling ”Green light”. The first player to reach and tag player A gets to take over player A’s role and the game starts over.

Variant: all players, including player A, get a handicap (crawling, hopping on one leg) or a characteristic (e.g. old grandma, combat soldier, gossiping aunt).
