The rules to Zaroff's game are simple.

• Zaroff first suggests he and the victim go hunting.

• If the guest won't play the game, he is turned over to Ivan.

• The victim is then given a food and a hunting knife, as well as a three hours' head start.

• Zaroff is armed "only with a pistol of the smallest caliber and range".

• If the victim can successfully elude the hunter "for three whole days", he wins and is awarded his freedom.

• If the "loses", he is killed.
