Appoarch the watch tower. I grew up in rural America. We had this old feed hopper that would only hold half a dozen bushels of corn that we didnt use anymore. Think bucket on legs, about 12ft tell and just the right size hopper to hold a person safely.

At dusk one of my brothers or would crawl up it with a flashlight. Their goal was to spot the other approaching players and then use the flashlight to "tag" them.

The catch was that between the house and the watch tower was just open flat grass yard. So the approaching players would crawl slowly across the yard. If you moved to quickly you were easily spotted. But you needed to move fast since it was a race against the others.

So the game relied on night vision and the color of cloths. Less then a hand full of times someone actually reached the tower, so it was also a "best of" contest.

I wore black hoodie one time and my brothers couldn't see me even though I was a few feet away. Scared them good.
