Step-by-Step Guide
-
Step 1: Set up the playing field.
Use your selection of bricks or sticks to draw a border on one end of the lawn.
Set up the cinder block right behind it.
On the other side of the line, scatter the cement slabs around.
Use a marker to label them 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, etc. -
Step 2: Pick teams.
They need to be completely equal.
If you have an odd number, the plants get the last player.
If you are picked for the plants, decide who will be the leader. , From there, they will label each of the plants. (Not with a marker.) 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, etc.
Then, they will instruct each plant, (calling them by plant number) to stand on one of the concrete slabs you set up and labeled, (which are called stations, by the way.) , Each one of the zombies gets a bat or tennis racket.
Each plant, except for the leader, gets a dodgeball.
They stand on their station.
The zombies stand on the other side of the lawn. , Everybody yells: "The zombies are coming" as loud as they can.
This start the game. , Their goal is to get past the line in front of the plant leader, who should be on the cinder-block. , For example, the leader could shout "Plant number 3! Throw at zombie number 2!"
A zombie has to get hit twice before they are out of the game.
So basically, if you're a zombie and get hit, go back to the zombie starting place and start over. , They must be back on the station before they are permitted to throw again. (Even then they must be told to do so by the plant leader.) , The plant has to leave the station to get it, and as usual, cannot throw again until on the station and told to do so. ,, -
