Part 1
Step 1. Players start by forming a circle.
Players start by forming a circle. Any number of players can join this game. Everyone stands with their hands together, mimicking a relaxed ninja pose. Then, all players jump at the same time and shout "ninja!" as they strike a ninja fighting stance. The first active player (chosen beforehand) then makes the first move.
Step 2. The first player decides to attack the player to their left or right (and no one else).
The first player decides to attack the player to their left or right (and no one else). They do not communicate this decision to the other players, as part of the fun is not knowing whether you are being attacked in the first round.
Step 3. During the attack, the player makes a smooth motion aimed at hitting or slapping the opponent's hand.
During the attack, the player makes a smooth motion aimed at hitting or slapping the opponent's hand. You can take only one step with your foot or jump towards the other player with both feet. If you fall, you are out.
Step 4. The opponent can also dodge the attack.
The opponent can also dodge the attack. When the first player makes their initial smooth motion, the other player can attempt to dodge the attack. If the first player hits their opponent's hand, the opponent is out.
Step 5. Turns go around the circle until only two players are left, and then the game restarts with just these two players.
Turns go around the circle until only two players are left, and then the game restarts with just these two players. They take their ninja stances and take turns attacking each other, dodging until only one ninja remains: the winner!
