Although now I think about it you might think it was silly or too complicated or something.
There's one person who runs the game and everyone else is supposed to be an assassin. The person running the game gives everyone an assignment so like if you, Harry, Michael, and Teddy were all playing, you might be assigned Michael, Michael would have Teddy, Teddy would have Harry and Harry would have you. And you're supposed to hex the person so their ears turn blue. It's a really easy hex but it's kind of long so you have to do it very quietly so they don't hear you, because if they DO hear you or if they know you're coming for them they're allowed to hex you first. And if you get hexed you're 'dead,' you're out, and you have to tell the person who hexed you your target and that becomes THEIR target. So if you hexed Michael, and Michael's target is Teddy, your target would be Teddy.
You're not allowed to hex people in class because it would be disruptive, or in your common room or dormitory, but corridors between classes and mealtimes are fair game. And if you hex the wrong person or an innocent bystander the person running the game lets everyone hex you.
There's also a potion that turns people's ears blue if you make it right, but Professor Slughorn would have to let people come in and make it if we were going to use it.
I don't know, it's really complicated and one person would have to run it and maybe no one would want to play anyway and it might make teachers cross.
