HOW TO PLAY
1

Players form a line, each holding the waist or shoulders of the person in front to make a long dragon.

2

The player at the front is the dragon's head and tries to tag the very last player, who is the tail.

3

Everyone in the middle of the line must twist and turn to shield the tail while keeping the chain unbroken.

4

If the chain breaks apart during the chase, the head must pause until the line reconnects before continuing.

5

Once the tail is tagged, that player moves to become the new head, and the game restarts with a fresh tail.
