Category: Traditional Indian outdoor game
Participants: 2-10 players
Objective: Be the last player holding a fish when all others have released theirs
Game Rules:
Setup:
10-15 bamboo/wooden sticks arranged in a circle
Players stand around the circle
Each player receives 3 fish tokens (plastic/marble)

On "GO!", players catch adjacent sticks
Each caught stick = 1 fish caught (release 1 token)
If unable to catch, drink water from a common pot
Last player remaining wins
Special Rules:
"Big Fish" - Catching 3 sticks in one move = extra fish
"Lost Fish" - Drop a fish while running = drink penalty
"Transformer" - Catching a golden stick = swap places with anyone
Winning Strategy:
Form attack groups (2-3 players)
Alternate between offensive and defensive moves
Save water pot until final round
Use golden stick swaps to disrupt opponents
Maintain at least 2 fish reserve for penalties
Common Variations:
Rural Version: Uses real fish in water (hygienic concerns)
Urban Version: Magnetic fish on wall
Corporate Version: Team-based with points system
Safety Tips:
Avoid slippery surfaces
Use soft tokens for children
Keep distance during running turns
Provide medical kit on-site
This traditional game promotes physical coordination and strategic thinking. Variations exist across states like:
West Bengal: "Mach ka game"

Maharashtra: "Machla Patla"
Would you like me to elaborate on any specific aspect of the gameplay or provide rule variations for different regions?
