Peekaboo
Peekaboo — Hide & Seek On the Network
Players are divided into two teams: props and hunters. Props able to take shape of any object. On each map a lot of unique objects: from small items like fast food and fruit, to large ones — like boxes and furniture. Players armed with special guns — hunters — must find players of opposing team in a limited time.
Each side has unique skills that help to win the round. For now, up to 16 players can take part in the match at the same time. When the prop is disclosed, it goes over to the side of the hunters. Everyone is constantly involved in the gameplay, no one is idle!
At the moment, the game have ten maps and possibility to choose the time of day — day, evening or night. That will completely change an atmosphere of the match. During the day you will hear the birds singing. At night you’ll see the light in the windows. In the park will appear fireflies and light breeze… We are actively working on creating new maps!
Play on open servers with other experienced hunters. Or invite your friends to private servers and have fun together!
Peekaboo Review
I found this game in the new releases section of Steam because I was looking for something quick and simple to play with friends. Around 7 of us played for a few hours and we had a ton of fun!
The game is basically Prop Hunt, which means a few players are chosen as props and must disguise themselves as furniture (which can still move around), and the others are hunters who have to find and shoot these “players in disguise”.
I love the extra tools added to this game. For example props can press C to make taunting sounds to players nearby them, such as screams or farts. They can also throw a smoke bomb to try and get away if spotted. Hunters can throw bombs to destroy an area of furniture and can “scan” the area around them which gives off a radar-like noise if a player prop is detected. Plus there is a “heat” detection in the top right showing where you are near or far from props.
Although we did notice some bugs, the developer is patching daily and responds quickly to forum posts. The maps are quite varied, although the night mode is a bit bright so the torch isn’t really any use. The music can drive you a little bonkers but I personally enjoy those upbeat hype type tunes. The controls used to “upright” yourself as a prop if you fall over are a little tricky to master but you’ll get there. Standing upright is key! Fallen over furniture looks suspicious in these perfect worlds.
Overall I look forward to watching this game improve and my friends and I will be playing more! Well worth the few pounds it cost.
