Fugitive 1975

Fugitive is played on a board of the players' devising which is a network of locations connected by lines; it is suggested that 50-60 locations be used. Locations can be connected to two, three, or four other locations.

In each round one or more players are fugitives and the other players are hunters; each has a piece on the board. Each turn everyone writes down their next destination, which can be up to three locations away. The fugitives move first and then the hunters; if a fugitive ends up on the same location as a hunter they are captured. The locations visited by hunters are marked with counters and fugitives may never pass through a counter.

The fugitive player(s) score points for visiting locations. The round ends when all fugitives have been captured, and enough rounds need to be played to give each player the same number of turns as a fugitive, since the hunters do not score.

(The game can be played by more than six - no maximum is actually given.)
