When playing hide and seek as either a hider or seeker you have a stamina bar at the bottom left of the screen that’s either red or blue depending on your team. The time you have remaining is listed at the top centre of the screen. After 30 seconds is up the seekers are released (a trumpet horn signifies this) and begin searching. Round StartĪt the start of each round the seekers are blinded for 30 seconds to give the hiders a chance to find a spot to hide in the map. This section supplies information relevant for both teams in hide and seek. Spectators are shown by the green colour – however they are invisible to hiders and seekers and only visible to other spectators if turned on. Spectators are a third non active role / team in the game in the sense they don’t actually play but watch what is occurring in game. This usually requires a teammate to remain behind as they may not be able to follow you up and if they get caught you need to be prepared to run. This can give you the advantage of getting away or higher than the seekers can get without catching another player first. In most servers you can stack or jump on your teammates to get up higher. This will cause your character to yell out in game so all players near you can hear your location. Hiders are signified by the colour blue.Īs a hider once you are caught you will switch to the seeking or spectating team and change to a red or green colour.Ī hider can taunt by pressing the reload key (usually R) in game. The hiding team have the goal of keeping out of sight and not getting caught by the seeking team. See below in the general information section for more about stamina. In the event you are killed you will respawn.Īs a seeker you also run slightly faster than the hiders however watch your stamina as a hider can still get away if they have more than you do.

Seekers usually have infinite health in the game and are not usually killed by traps in the map in some maps falling outside the map may also not kill you.

This is good if they are slightly out of reach such as on a ledge in the map. You can also click (right or left mouse) and tag a player with the click.

Tagging a player is done by getting close to the hiding player. The seekers have a goal of finding (seeking) out the hiding team and tagging (catching) them. The roles are as the names convey one team seeks out the other team who is trying to hide. In the game there are two teams the hiders and the seekers.
