Put yourself to the test in Paint or Hunt, an ingenious and colorful twist on the classic game of hide-and-seek in 3D. Your main objective will vary depending on your assigned role; as the hider, you’ll need to study your surroundings, mimic the textures of the environment using painting tools, and strike the perfect pose to blend into the map; as the hunter, you’ll have to sharpen your hearing, track down suspicious whistles, and uncover the camouflaged intruders.
The game’s main appeal lies in its deep tactical freedom and the diversity of its 7 themed maps. From art galleries to warehouses and amusement parks, hiders have a color picker to sample colors directly from the walls and 17 unique poses to blend in with nearby objects, as well as features like rotation lock, free-camera mode, and taunts. With modes for online play or local multiplayer for two players on the same device, victory will depend on your powers of observation and creativity.
First secure your position and pose before wasting time painting your character’s details: A perfect color gradient is useless if you’re positioned in an obvious hallway or visible from multiple angles. Find a sheltered corner with few vantage points, strike the right pose, and use the eyedropper tool on the back wall; this will guarantee convincing camouflage in just a few seconds without risking being caught by the timer.
