Instructions

Everyone stands spread out around the room and told to orient themselves to "north".
North could be real north or a convenient wall or corner in the hall.
Everyone except for the caller and the referees close their eyes (blindfolded if you don't think the honor system will work).
The caller then calls out a direction, like "east" and then everyone turns eyes still closed) and points in the direction of east.
The referee then goes around and taps the shoulder of anyone not pointing in the right direction.
They are out. The game continues until one scout is left.
The game can be extended by including bearings.
