Procedure
First, you split the participants is groups (of equal size), each of those groups representing an chariot. Usually, you have groups of two or three, but you can also try to create bigger chariots. With only two participants, he chariot is formed by one playing carrying the other one piggyback. With three or more participants, they have to be creative how the chariot is formed: The players can represent the wagon, the rider, the horses, etc.
