Summary

Description
English: A Ghanaian game similar to hide-and-seek

The Pilolo game is played by two or more children. The higher the number, the increase in excitement and zeal to win. An object like a stick is mostly used and the number of sticks to use is dependent on the number of children. A non-participant hides the sticks while the participants have either closed their eyes or not in the same location. The non-participant then shout out "pi-lo-lo", the participants then run from their hideout to search for the item. A finish point is indicated where they must send the stick to be a winner. One needs to be smart, observant and skilful to detect where the item has been hidden. The first person that sees it secretly runs to the finish point before alerting the others after a hard time trying. It is then recorded as they reach the finish point. There is an excitement after being the winner.

It can be played multiple times
