The following listing outlines non-team based games.

Man Hunt

Number of People: Any (at least 5)
Duration: Any length of time available. Can be made short or long depending on interest.
Area Required: Any location which can afford to get wet but with ample hiding places
Special Equipment Required: None

Overview:
A common game played at night with flashlights, but can be played day or night using water guns. Basically, one person is chosen to be the "hunter". The "hunter" must close their eyes and count to 20 or so while the other players hide within a designated area. The hunter's job is to locate and spray the other players with a good stream of water. Once wet, the discovered player also becomes a "hunter" and joins in the hunt until everyone is found. The last player to be captured in this manner is declared winner and is given the role of hunter the next game.

Optional:
To add a twist, if the hunter is shot by one of the other players, the hunter must pause and count to ten aloud, unable to pursue until the count is over. During the count and ten seconds following, another hit on the "hunter" can be disregarded and the hunt continues.
