| Players: | 10-30 |
| Equipment: | Blindfold |
| Preparation: | None |

Everyone joins hands in a circle, except for two players who are inside the circle. One is blindfolded
and is called "Sherlock." Sherlock must try to catch the other player, who is called "Watson." The blindfolded player calls out "Watson!" Then Watson must answer, "Sherlock!" In this way, Sherlock can tell what part of the circle Watson is in. Watson must stay within the circle, and whenever Sherlock says "Watson!" the other must answer "Sherlock!" When Watson is caught, he or she becomes the blindfolded Sherlock. The previous Sherlock chooses a new Watson and joins the circle. The game continues until everyone has had a turn being Sherlock and Watson. |
