Tag

The classic. One player is It; everyone else is running.

How to play

• The player tagged “It” tries to touch any other player.
• When you tag someone, they become It and you are no longer It.
• Stay inside the Play area — leaving it triggers an out-of-bounds toast.

Setup

• 2+ players.
• Place the Play area rectangle wherever you want the game bounded.

Winning

There is no win condition — Tag is a forever-game. End the round whenever you’ve had enough.

For builders

Tag is the reference game — the whole engine vocabulary in one short file. It’s read line by line in Tutorial: read Tag line by line.

• Demonstrates: a player interaction with filters, role handoff via same/other, edge-triggered out-of-bounds, a bot with a behavior tree, and the ensure_it_exists self-heal.
