"Hunter." The play area is a big part of the neighborhood. The details were a little variable depending on different experiments or how many people were playing, but one canonical version is three hunters with walkie-talkies, trying to find two people without walkie-talkies, with a time limit. No other rules aside from don't piss off any neighbor inside their house overly badly.
