A neighborhood game
Your neighborhood is the game board.
One player hides somewhere inside a play area you draw on the map. Everyone else spreads out to find them, spending coins on questions, photos, and tracking tools before time runs out.
The Hider has traps and power moves of their own, including one last chance to disappear.

Start to finish
Choose a neighborhood, park, campus, or other safe place to walk.
They get a head start to find a hiding place inside the boundary.
Seekers share a map, a coin balance, and every clue they uncover.
Find the Hider in the real world and make the tag.
The search
Seekers share a limited pool of coins. Every question and tracking tool has a cost, so the group has to decide which clue is worth buying next.
How far away are you? Are we getting warmer? Are you north or south of us?
The Hider shares a carefully framed glimpse of their surroundings.
Radar, direction finding, and the Scanner help narrow the final search.
The map
Everyone's live position, coins on the ground, and your plays in your pocket.
The question
Is this one worth your last 50 coins?
The reveal
HOTTER. You're on the right path, keep looking!
● Scanning for a signal
The Scanner: hold still, sweep slowly, watch the signal climb.
The Hider plays too
While the Seekers spend coins gathering clues, the Hider builds a hand of traps and power moves.
TRAP
Lure Seekers toward a trap and steal their coins.
TRAP
Disable their tools at exactly the wrong moment.
POWER MOVE
Abandon your hiding place and disappear again.
Every clue helps the Seekers. Every move gives the Hider another chance.
The catch
The map gets smaller. The footsteps get closer. Questions rule out parts of the play area. A photo gives away a landmark. The Scanner starts responding. Someone spots movement, and suddenly the whole group is running.
A sprint across the grass. A tag. The kind of laughing where you have to sit down.
Find the Hider. Make the tag. Start another round.
“Again?”
