Instructions<\/strong><\/p>The game is to be played silently.<\/p>
The aim is for the Lame Duck to sit in the vacant chair. Everyone else is trying to stop the Lame Duck from accessing a vacant chair, by occupying the chairs. Players can move to another chair. No-one is allowed to physically stop the Lame Duck. No-one can move the chairs.<\/p>
Important: The Lame Duck is to walk slowly between the chairs, dragging one leg as if it was broken.<\/p>
The game is over when the Lame Duck successfully sits in a vacant chair. The last person to vacate a chair becomes \u2018it\u2019, and play can continue as long as you like. Playing a few rounds, usually reveals changes in behaviour, tactics, and skills.<\/p>

Why was it fun?\u2028
What strategies did you use to play the game? (Interesting to discuss the strategy of staying in their chair throughout.) Who won? What was winning? What was success?\u2028
