Defenders must stay in their positions while a small group of attackers tries to cross the field to retrieve a flag. It's like in the video game "Doom," only with paintballs instead.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Instructions
  1. Step 1

    Pick two or three people to be attackers, or "heroes." If you have 6 or 7 people total, pick 2; if you have 9 or 10 total, pick 3, and so on. The idea is that the heroes are a much smaller group.

  2. Step 2

    Place a flag at the opposite end of the field.

  3. Step 3

    Set a time limit on the game depending on the distance to the flag. Don't allow too much time. Fifteen to 20 minutes is sufficient, but it really depends on the size of the field and the number of people playing.

  4. Step 4

    Position defenders, or "monsters," between the starting point and the flag. Each monster may choose his or her own position, but once there, the monster may not leave it until shot or the game has ended.

  5. Step 5

    Start the game after the monsters have had sufficient time to position themselves. Heroes must try to cross through the field of monsters and retrieve the flag back to the starting point. Monsters try to stop them.

  6. Step 6

    Pick new heroes each game.

  7. Step 7

    Time each game to see who can win in the least amount of time.

Tips & Warnings
  • This game works because the monsters are unable to leave their positions. Heroes should eliminate or evade each monster one or two at a time.
  • Always wear eye protection around paintball guns.
