Flashlight tag got the name "German spotlight" because it is believed to have originated in Germany. The term "spotlight" likely refers to the beam of light used to "spot" or tag other players in the game. The name may have evolved over time as the game spread to different regions and cultures, but the German association likely stuck due to its perceived origin.
