How it feels

A tense, playful game of hide and seek where one player looms as an all-seeing giant while the other scurries through crowds to stay unnoticed.

What players say

Players love this as a party game for its unique 1v1 hide-and-seek where the PC player blends with NPCs while the VR player hunts them. Many wish for more maps or online play, and note development seems to have stopped years ago.
