James Gurney
Tuggle  2005

A game of agility and balance, tuggle is played on Interdependence Day in the village of Jorotongo. The object of the game is to pull your opponent off the stump, but if you remain standing, the one who gets the whole length of rope wins. When considering new games for inclusion in his books, James Gurney invites his family, friends, and neighbors to try them out and offer suggestions for the rules of play.
