Set Up a Hide & Seek Match with Friends

Prepare the Map

Load the Small Hide & Seek Map from your world selection screen. Make sure all players who want to participate are in the same server or local multiplayer session. The compact layout is designed for groups of 4–8 players, though you can adjust based on your group size.

Assign Roles

Decide together who will be the seeker first. Agree on a search time limit before the round begins—typically 3–5 minutes works well for the small space.

Start the Round

Have the seeker count down or use a timer so hiders know when searching begins. Hiders should move quickly to their chosen spots and stay silent and motionless once in position. The seeker then explores the map systematically, checking corners, under structures, and behind blocks.

End and Rotate

When time expires or all hiders are found, swap roles. Let a different player be the seeker for the next round. This keeps the game fresh and gives everyone a chance to hide and search.
