A game that is much like Hide-and-go-seek, but is considered less juvenile, so is played by older people. Game works best during the night, and outside. This is played with two teams who alternate being the Hiders, and the Seekers.

After a designated period of wait, the Seekers scavenge the predetermined territory for the other team. After a Hider is found, rules vary on how to officially tag, he is brought to the area marked as prison. From there, fellow teammates can free him. Game is not over until everyone is found.

Note: Game eventually causes great chaos and arguments over rules and teams. A smooth playing game is rare.
"I'm up for some action tonight, let's get some people together and play manhunt."
Origin of "noses," is most likely from the card game in which players attempt to grab spoons before their opponents and place them on their nose when a player has accumulated four of a kind. The last one to do so, drops out of the game and all others are still in.

In respects, noses is a silent form of, not it. It is used to exclude one party from a desired item or action. When a situation arises where not every person in the group can benefit from, one person calls noses and places the index finger on the tip of the nose. Every else follows suit and keeps their finger on their nose until the game is over. The last person, or the one who doesn’t, is the loser, and therefore does not get what is being sought after.

Noses works in ways, opposite to shoddy

B: Alright... Noses! *places finger on nose*
C: *places finger on nose*
D: *places finger on nose*
E: ... shit.
A: See ya later, E.
