Hide and Smash combines object disguise with a fast chase between two opposing roles. Hiders blend into the environment and collect keys, while smashers search for suspicious objects and try to stop them before the objective is completed.
What Is Hide and Smash?
Madbox created the game as an action-oriented variation on hide-and-seek. At the start of a round, the player is assigned to the hiding team or the smashing team. This role changes the priorities completely: hiders depend on movement, timing, and believable positioning, while smashers must scan the area and avoid wasting attacks on harmless objects.

How to Play Hide and Smash
As a hider, move between groups of similar objects and stop in positions that look natural. Collect keys when the route is clear, but avoid running directly past a smasher. A disguise is most convincing when it matches the objects already placed nearby.
As a smasher, watch for objects that move, face an unusual direction, or appear in an unlikely location. Do not swing at everything because missed attacks cost time. Search around key locations and narrow passages where hiders are more likely to reveal themselves.
