Gameplay

  1. Make a circle

     
  2. One participant is blindfolded and stands in the middle of the circle.

     
  3. The other participants hold hands, walk around the circle, and say the following little chant:

    In the cellar it is gloomy,

    There lives a poor cobbler.

    How can it be gloomy in the cellar,

    There's light and sunshine there,

    One, two, three, and four,

    Who's behind you?

     
  4. The player in the middle feels his way to the players in the circle and must identify the player he touches first.

     
  5. If he has identified him correctly, the identified player must move to the center. If not, the circle turns again:

    Schuster, you guessed wrong!

    Come and guess again.

    One, two, three, and four,

    Who's behind you?

     
  6. If he gets it wrong one more time, he is eliminated.
