fox and hounds
Chase across countryside
Fox and hounds is a traditional chase game.
In the children's version, one player (the fox) flees while others (the hounds) pursue.
As a paper chase, the fox leaves a trail of torn paper for hounds to follow cross-country.
Fox and hounds also names a two-against-one board game where hounds try to corner the fox.
