I remember the name kerby played in the streets put I never played it.Maybe because the park was less than 5 minutes from my house and my parents were very strict with playing out in the streets

Was it a rule that if you caught it one handed you won as this used to be a proper bone of contention when younger!!!

I've played several of the games throughout the years. It's a nice gun game with a cool concept and the main character is fluffy and cute.

Not Cribby

Kerby, throwing a ball over a road and it has to hit off the edge of the kerb and bounce back. The rules after that change from one street to another I’m sure. We used to get extra points for throwing it over a moving vehicle.

Yes, I think so!

Double points if you chucked it over a car and hit the kerb. I can just imagine the trouble you’d get in for that now

Me and a mate used to play our own wrestling type game over the park called Shitface - we actually tried to push each others face into dog shit. I don't remember either of us getting a faceful, you muster a surprising amount of strength as you see that pile of cack looming a couple of inches from your nose

Absolutely loved playing it with all the kids in my cul-de-sac!

My dad wasn't so keen on it when our house was the gable end of the terrace and prime spot for playing was beside our house
