To continue with Kid's games, we used to play 'JailBreak' a kind of tag/capture the flag. you'd try to get your fellows, who were trapped out of jail, if you sneaked up and tagged them with your hand without getting tagged and captured. We played it in the evening sometimes. That was in suburban NJ near Philadelphia.

Yeah, that reminds me of part of how I played capture the flag as a kid, rather than its own game. One could be “caught” (tagged) and jailed if they were on the opposing side looking for the flag and they had to be tagged by a teammate while in jail to escape (still free game until you’re on the friendly side of the line).
