Sneak Out challenges you and five others to survive as survivors or hunt as the Reaper, Vampire, Scarecrow, or more in Kinguin Studios’ 2024 free-to-play horror adventure.
About this game
Sneak Out is a free-to-play 5v1 horror hide-and-seek in a Haunted Castle. You enter the Haunted Castle with your five friends, and one of you gets randomly chosen as the Hunter. The remaining players must hide and survive within the Castle, completing tasks and avoiding the Hunter until the escape portal opens. Those unlucky penguins who get caught can still assist their friends as Ghost, messing with their pursuers. And those who become Hunters must do everything to stop ‘em all from escaping. Simple, right? Like the childhood game beloved by all. But more sneaky.
Hunt as the Hunter
This is the most mischievous game of hide and seek ever, and… you are it! Selected at random to be the most sneaky Hunter ever, make ‘em all fear for their lives! Pick your favorite character to embody from a list of terrifying monsters, such as the scythe-wielding Reaper, the blood-thirsty Vampire, or the pumpkinhead Scarecrow (just to name a few), and embrace the thrill of the chase, taking advantage of the unique abilities that come with your choice. The clock is ticking, and time is on your side, so track down those annoying penguins, and don’t let them escape the Haunted Castle!
Escape as a Hider
Ready or not, here comes the Hunter! But don’t worry, being chased can still be quite funny. It all depends on your attitude! Run away from the Hunter, hide wherever you can, get sneaky, and complete tasks to open the portal to safety. Too easy? So snap and retaliate! Use traps to catch the Hunter off guard or a well-placed banana peel to slow him down, hop on a magic broom to fly away, resurrect your fallen friends, or choose to turn yourself into a lamp while at it. Yes, you can do a lot, but there is no escaping if you’re not putting up the work. Finish tasks, both big and small to earn coins and open up the portal to safety. And if you feel the Hunter’s breath on your neck, do whatever it takes to survive, even if it means sacrificing a friend or two.
Haunt as a Ghost
Congratulations, you're dead! But here, in the Haunted Castle, death is just the beginning. You get to become a Ghost, and your sole purpose is to annoy the Hunter to help your friends. Seems funny enough? Because it is! Possess a Knight’s Armor to get back at the one that hunted you down, slow him by making it slippery with your ectoplasm, or hurl a chair or two directly at his head. Afterlife feels like a dream if you get comfortably mischievous and make it fun for yourself, no?
Customize your style
Whether you instill fear as the Hunter or run away aimlessly as a Hider, you need to have a sense of your own style. And we are not talking about the gameplay here. No, no! We are talking fashion, trinkets, and bling. When you complete tasks, you get money. Money means you can customize your very own outfit with a variety of available items and accessories waiting for you. Embrace your inner fashionista even in the sneakiest games of hide and seek!
