Question

What do you mean by the "seaweed"?

Community Answer

The "seaweed" are the tagged minnows. They have to stay still and try to tag anyone going by without moving from their spots.

Question

How do I get the game?

Community Answer

It's not a physical game you can touch; just ask a group of people if they want to play.

Question

Can I tag someone's shirt?

Earth_Lover

Community Answer

If the people who are playing agree to it, then yes. The best thing to do is to agree on if tagging someone's shirt counts or not. Have people vote.

Question

Are players allowed to start before everyone is ready?

Community Answer

No. It could be unsafe to have some players start early. Everyone should wait until all of the players are ready.

Question

How many people are needed to play the game?

Earth_Lover

Community Answer

You need at least 2-3 people. It is better to have 4 or more players. The more people you have, the more fun it will be while playing. If you only have three people, then it will be really boring.

Question

How many people can play the game?

Community Answer

You pick 1 or 2 people to be a shark at the beginning of the game depending on the amount of people playing. 1 shark to 10 minnows is a good ratio.

Question

Is this for an Android phone or the new S Plus?

Community Answer

This isn't a mobile game. You play the game with a group of people in a pool. You can use a lake as well, though.

Question

Is the seaweed trying to tag the sharks or the minnows?

Lila h

Community Answer

Either one. They might want to tag other minnows to make them seaweed, or tag sharks and become a minnow again.

Question

If a seaweed tags a shark, what if a seaweed tags another seaweed that is nearby?

Blink

Community Answer

You can make up your own rule for that. It says that you can make your own rules in the article, so why not?
