Hide-and-Seek - Geography

What is Hide and Seek - Geography?

This game is a fun sociable game designed for ESL students. It uses the simple and fun rules to help learn geography vocabulary and some simple sentences in English.

The rules are very simple. First, lay out 7 hexes with 7 different locations and place player meeples on the hexes. One player is the hunter and the other players are monsters (kaiju). Every turn the hunter announces the area where they will hunt and secretly plays the hunting card. The hunter may be lying or telling the truth. After that, the players may move their meeples one or two spaces to avoid being caught. The hunter gets points for every player caught. The game only lasts three rounds.
