The game\u2019s origin goes back to the 20th century, with some tracing it to a book Steve Jackson wrote in 1982. Steve Jackson describes a unique set of rules in the \u201cKiller: The Game of Assassination.\u201d The game essentially requires at least two players and usually lasts for up to two weeks. The goal is to use fake weapons, such as water guns, to tag and eliminate opponents. The winner is the last participant standing.<\/p>\n
In the United States, Senior Assassin has become a popular game for high school teens. Seniors play it in the spring, and the main weapon is water. You could use a water gun, bottle, or balloon to spray and tag another participant. Students who agree to participate invest some funds, and the joint pool money goes to the winner.<\/p>\n
The rules depend on the game and can be adjusted as participants see fit. A basic rule is that the live-action game doesn\u2019t apply to school grounds, meaning you can\u2019t play it from 7 AM to 4 PM. A common and smart rule is that there\u2019s no trespassing, so entering the home or yard of the target is only possible with adequate permission. Finally, you can\u2019t \u201cshoot\u201d from a moving vehicle, so you have to turn off the car first.<\/p>\n
