“Ambáriza” (a traditional game)

The children are divided into two teams, and each team chooses its “base,” that is, the point it will defend. The two bases should be as far apart as possible. A child from the team that plays first touches their base and shouts, “I take base and I’m leaving!” and runs toward the opposing base with the aim of touching it.

But immediately, a player from the defending team, with the same goal, also starts out, trying either to reach the other team’s base first or to tag the first player. Then, one by one, teammates of the first player set off with the same objectives: to support them, to defeat the guards, and to free their own teammates.

The team that takes control of the opponents’ base wins.

What is funny about this game is that the italian name is "un, due, tre, stai là!" but many people (we can say everyone when kids) are convinced the name is "un, due, tre, STELLA (star)!" because in italian "stella" and "stai là" are very similar in the pronunciation, so many of us find out only when adults that the name is different!

Stakaman was a game that, due to its nature, was played among boys. It belonged to the category “half against the other half.” It was a game that combined hide-and-seek with cops and robbers.

The name meant “stay still,” which most likely came from the English phrase stick (th)’em up (“hands up”) heard in American police movies. The game was played in Athens and Piraeus and reached the countryside in the early 1960s.

Players were divided into two teams. Usually, there were two leaders; one would pick a player, then the other would pick someone from the remaining players, and so on. The selection was based on each player’s individual abilities.

The two teams would hide and approach each other. When a player saw an opponent within a certain preset distance (e.g., 15 steps), he would shout “Stakaman,” and the game would freeze to measure the distance. If the distance was less than 15 steps, the second player was out of the game. Otherwise, the player who shouted “Stakaman” from afar (out of the effective range) was out of the game.

The game ended when one team eliminated the other.
