Tactical Adventure Games is proud to present their latest campus game: WANTED.

For those of you who have been involved in Bruins vs. Foxes, this game will also be a ton of fun, but definitely less time commitment required. We’ve put a lot of thought into this though, and it will be very fun, so we hope to see lots of players!

Game play will run Sept. 5-9. Sign-ups close Sunday night (Sept. 4) because we need to have time to assign targets and all that jazz.

WANTED Basics: At the beginning of the game, each player will be assigned a target. Your goal is to tag your target while avoiding being tagged by your pursuer. When you tag someone, they join your team and you both continue hunting for their target together.

At the end of the game, the largest team is declared the winner! Similar to our Bruins vs. Foxes games, each player will wear an identifying bandana (see rules doc for details).

Here is the WANTED sign-up form, and here is our rules document. Got questions? Contact James Marcelia at jmarcelia19@georgefox.edu.
