Please note: When these instructions say „policeman“, this includes policewomen as well.
The idea of the game:
Arrange seven cards in a circle on the table facing up. Each card shows a policeman. You
can either see the front or the back of the policeman. During the game, players will need
to perform three different actions – sometimes to the left and sometimes to the right.
The problem: You always have to know what’s your left and what’s your right, because
“to the left” always means: to the left of the policeman! And “to the right” means to the
right of the policeman, of course!

Players: 2 - 8
Ages: 6 and up
Duration:
approx. 10 minutes
As quickly as possible, the players try to figure out which card they land on when the
three movements have been performed. The first player to name the correct card wins the
challenge cards. The first player who manages to collect six challenge cards wins the
game.
Preparation:
Put the seven cards showing policemen on the table facing up and arrange them in a
circle at random. Their feet point to the centre of the circle. Shuffle the 43 challenge
cards and put them in a pile in the centre of the circle.

Playing the game:
The oldest player turns over the top card of the pile and puts it back on the pile facing up.
The card shows an object and three movements to be performed one after the other.
The objects determines the starting point from which the three movements have to be performed.
The game starts immediately after the card has been turned over. Everybody plays
at the same time; there is no taking of turns.
Each player now tries to figure out (without speaking or using of hands) which card the
three movements will take him or her to. As soon as someone has figured this out, he or
she calls out the name of the object showing on the correct card.
Example: The challenge card shows the house. The
‘journey’ thus begins on the card
showing the policeman with the house.
Starting from this card, move three
cards to the left (from the policeman’s
perspective!), and you land on the card
with the streetlight. Now move one card
to the right – you’ll land on the card
Start
with the tree. Move four cards to the left
to take you to the card showing the bike.
A player calls out the correct answer:
“Bike!”
k The first player to call out the correct answer takes the challenge card from the pile
and places it in front of him or her face-down.
k If a player calls out the wrong object, he or she cannot play again in this round. He
or she must also return one of his or her cards and put it aside, if he or she already
owns any cards. The other players continue until someone calls out the right answer.
Continue playing several rounds in this manner. Turn over the top card of the challenge
pile, all players look for the correct card, one of them calls out the correct object, and so
on.
If two or more players call out the correct object at the same time, they have a play-off.
The current challenge card is removed and put on the bottom of the pile. Then, a new
challenge card is turned over and the players in question play for it. The other players are
not allowed to call anything out during the play-off.
The end of the game:
The first player who has collected six challenge cards wins the game. Of course, it’s possible
to agree on more or fewer cards as a condition for winning, if you like.
For beginners:
Many children (and a number of grown-ups) find it hard to differentiate between left and
right. We suggest you help your children get into the game slowly by having them perform
just one movement at first, taking your cue from the first challenge on the challenge card.
When your children have mastered this, you can move on to the next step and follow the
second and later the third instruction on the card.
