How it plays

Push the stick to run round the yard. One of you is on fire: touch another player and the potato is theirs. It cannot go straight back to whoever just passed it.
The fuse is hidden and gets shorter as the round goes on. When it blows, whoever is carrying the fire is out. One life each; last one standing wins, and every pass is a point.

How it runs. Push the stick to run. The yard is full of L-shaped walls to cut round and walls at the edge, and whoever carries the fire runs a little faster.
Scoring. One player wears a ring of fire. Touch another player and it is theirs; it cannot go straight back to whoever just passed it. The fuse is hidden, and the flames grow taller the closer it gets.
Winning. When it blows, whoever is carrying it is out on the spot. One life each. Last one standing wins, and every pass you complete is a point.
