Red Light, Green Light

What differs

Instead of the line, the player on gives two commands, and anyone caught moving is not eliminated but returns to the start.

The commands

With their back turned, the player on calls green light aloud — and the players begin moving towards them.

At any moment they call red light and turn round sharply.

Back to the start

Whoever the player on has seen moving is named aloud and goes back behind the start line. All the ground they had covered is lost.

The player on may try to mislead the players by saying unexpected words instead of the command: it is the exact wording that must be listened for.

Winning

The round ends when somebody reaches the player on and touches them. They are on for the next round.
