fox and hounds

     

Fox games are a category of boar games where one player is the fox and tries to eat the geese/sheep, and the other player directs the geese/sheep and attempts to trap the fox, or reach a destination on the board. In another variant, Fox and Hounds, the fox merely tries to evade the hounds. There are several versions known: in Britain (Fox and geese), France (Renard et les poules), Italy (Lupo e pecore), Germany (Fuchs und Gänse), Netherlands (Schaap en wolf), Sweden (Räfspel), Iceland (Refskak), and Russia (Volk i ovtsy/Wolf and sheep).
