I remember more childhood.games, but not their names...
@wontwakewontsleep What's Over This Bridge? That's the only one I don't remember.
@Kate
I guess it was actually called Cross Over the Bridge. It's a board game like from the 70s that my nana uses to play with me

@wontwakewontsleep how do you play this game😄
Twister! :)
Dodgeball and Kickball when I was well, Colorforms when I was sick. Parcheesi, Mousetrap and Chinese Checkers anytime, depending on the availability of siblings to play them with!
From truthiness to truth
We used to have chicken-fights in the ocean-person would sit on the shoulders of their teammate and try to knock the other into the water. I also used to play a lot of table soccer and card games for small amounts (quarters or M&Ms)
Red devil.
Tag.
House.
Freeze tag.
Hide and seek.
Kick the can.

Lots of board games.

Fellow Malaysian here!
My hand-eye coordination is so bad I was horrible at playing Batu Seremban hahahaha
I fondly remember playing Galah Panjang with cousins and Lompat Tikus with friends at school. :)
Ah, sorry! I should explain what these games are to our international friends who might be interested!
I believe Batu Seremban (literally translated as Seremban stones) is kinda similar to Jacks? Back in the day, we actually played it with stones but it's more common to sew mini cloth 'stones' and play using those instead.
Galah Panjang (literally translated as long poles) involves an attacking team and a defending team. Attackers have to have, at least, one member make it across a drawn court and back while avoiding being tagged out by any of the defenders to win. Defenders act as long poles and try to tag out the attackers but they can only move along the drawn line they're on. Others might play this with slightly different rules but this was how my cousins and I played it. :)
Lompat Tikus (literally translated as mouse hops) involves a pair of players using their hands as obstacles that the other players have to hop through or over.

@MelatiMel Some childhood games I still remember include hide and seek, marbles, hopscotch, kite flying, and street cricket. Playing these games felt carefree and joyful, much like wearing comfortable clothes from Nofal Apparel, where the soft fabric brings back that same sense of ease and nostalgia.
