The rules
How to play
1
All players join hands in a single line.
2
The player at the front (the head) tries to run forward and tag the player at the very end of the line (the tail) without the line breaking.
3
The players in the middle try to help the head while also protecting the tail.
4
The line must not break, if it does, the players who let go freeze briefly before rejoining.
5
When the head tags the tail, the tail player moves to the front and the old head goes to the end.
Keep it fair
Agree that the line is broken when two hands separate clearly, bumping shoulders or wrists touching doesn't count.
