The two roles and how a round works
TableEach round assigns every player to one of two sides. The round ends either when the Seekers find every Hider or when time expires — whichever comes first.
| Hider | paint yourself any color and stay hidden until time runs out |
| Seeker | track down every Hider before the clock hits zero |
| Hiders win | at least one Hider survives to the end of the timer |
| Seekers win | every Hider is found before time expires |

Common questions
FAQCan I choose any color I want when I paint myself?
Yes, the paint tool lets you pick any color freely.
How are the roles decided?
The game assigns Hider or Seeker automatically at the start of each round. Playing multiple rounds gives you a chance to experience both sides.
What happens if the Seekers do not find everyone before time runs out?
Any Hider still hidden when the timer hits zero means the Hiders win that round. Surviving to the end of the timer is the Hider's goal.
