TUG OF WAR
Pulling Hell
 | Pull your opponent over the line |
 | Get pulled over the line |
 | Some opponents are impossible to beat |
A seemingly simple tug of war.
Contestants select a rope without being able to see who - or what - is on the other side. On the whistle, the contestants pull on their end of the rope while their opponent/s pull on the other end.
The first to pull the marked section of the rope over the centre line wins.

Group Tug
Contestants play as a team. They select one of four ropes leading underneath a barrier. Once they've selected a rope, the barrier is lifted to reveal their opponent. The war now begins. |

Mystery Tug
There are five ropes to choose from, each leading through a set of doors. The rules are the same, except their opponent isn't revealed until after the battle is over and the door is finally opened. |
