Hide and Seek

History

Hide and Seek originated between 1665 and 1675. The original location of the game is more difficult to pinpoint, in the 17th century when the prison guards got bored they would tell the prisoners to run and hide and if they were found they were shot. Of course the game was later toned down.

How to Play? Hide and seek old and popular children’s game in which one player closes his or her eyes for a brief period (often counting to 100) while the other players hide. The seeker then opens his eyes and tries to find the hiders; the first one found is the next seeker, and the last is the winner of the round. In one of many forms of the game, the hiders try to run back to “home base” while the seeker is away looking for them; if all of the hiders return safely, the seeker repeats as seeker in the next round.
