How it works

  1. Choose one player to be the ox. This player turns around and hides their face in their hands. The other players line up about 10 meters away.

  2. The ox shouts '1, 2, 3 - Ox on the Hill'. While the ox is calling, you must try to run as far as possible in their direction. When the ox says 'Hill', they quickly turn around. As soon as the ox sees you moving, you must return to the starting line.

  3. The first person to reach and touch the ox wins the game and becomes the new ox. Now you have a great game idea to play outside with your friends. Have fun playing 'Ox on the Hill'!
