How a round works
StepEvery round starts with all players arranged in a circle. One player is designated as 'It' and moves around the outside while the others wait. When 'Goose' is finally called, the two players involved must move fast, because hesitation means elimination. The last player still in the game wins the round.
- React to the call the instant 'Goose' is declared, move immediately.
- Outlast everyone the player who survives to the end of the round wins it.
