The best hide and seek game on Roblox to play with friends

You want a game you and your friends understand in one round, laugh at in the next, and keep replaying. Scary Hide & Seek hits that spot. Short matches, simple roles, and the chaos of turning into a chair while your friend walks past you.
Why You will love to play this with friends






-
Everyone plays the whole time. If a seeker tags a hider, that player joins the seeker team. No one sits out.
-
Rounds are short. Miss one? You are back in the next match fast.
-
Hiding as props is funny. A plant, a lamp, a tiny cup. The moment someone realizes you were the trash bin is peak voice chat.
-
Easy to learn. One button to transform, one to attack, and a small map that makes sense in minutes.
-
Works with mixed skill. New friends can hide, veterans can seek, and the teams shift during the match.
Roles and win conditions, hider or seeker
Hiders start as people, then transform into objects around the map. The goal is to stay hidden until the timer ends. If a seeker finds you and takes you out, you switch sides and help find the rest.
Seekers start with a weapon. The job is to search rooms, test props, and clear areas. Each hider you catch grows your team. The seekers win if all hiders are tagged before time runs out. The hiders win if at least one hider is still free when the timer hits zero.
Start a party fast, joining and inviting friends
-
Launch Roblox and search the game title. Open the game page.
-
Join a server with space, or create a private one if your group wants a quiet lobby.
-
Invite friends from your Roblox friends list. Use voice chat if your group has it, it makes the near misses way better.
-
Do one warm up round so everyone learns the buttons. Swap roles next round if someone only played seeker.
Core rules and smart house rules for groups
Core rules
-
You will randomly be a hider or a seeker at the start.
-
Hiders can transform into many objects. Pick things that fit the room.
-
If a seeker tags you and you go down, you become a seeker.
-
Hiders win by surviving the timer. Seekers win by catching everyone.
Smart house rules
-
No body blocking in doorways. Keep it fair.
-
Countdowns for seekers. Give hiders five seconds to set up at the start.
-
Call out last thirty seconds so both sides make bold moves.
Ten fast tips, five for hiders and five for seekers
Five for hiders
-
Match the scene. If a room already has two chairs, do not become a third in a strange angle. Align with walls and surfaces.
-
Start small in big spaces. In the first seconds, tiny props work well in wide rooms. You blend in while seekers rush past.
-
Do not pile up. Avoid hiding where other players hide. One seeker sweep can catch a whole group.
-
Move between patrols. When seekers camp one area then leave, rotate to that area. They think it is clear and stop checking it.
-
Plan one smart switch. Change form or room once, not many times. Use footstep noise or seeker movement to cover the swap.
Five for seekers
-
Clear with a path. Sweep left to right, room by room. Close doors behind you so you know what is checked.
-
Look for odd angles. Misaligned props, objects slightly off grid, or duplicates that do not match the set are red flags.
-
Tap, then commit. Quick light hits on likely props, then a full check if something reacts or moves.
-
Listen and recheck. Footsteps, jumps, and transform sounds travel. If you hear one, return to the last room fast.
-
Use the clock. In the last minute, focus on common hide rooms, then spread out. Call areas you cleared so teammates do not double check.
Fun party twists to keep rounds fresh
-
Tiny props only. Everyone must pick small objects. Chaos in every corner.
-
No jumping round. You can rotate and move, but no jumps allowed. Positioning matters more.
-
Last seconds sprint. At ten seconds, all hiders must move. Seekers listen and chase.
-
One room lockdown. Hiders must stay within one room. Pick it before the round starts.
-
Swap callers. Each round, one seeker is the caller who directs the sweep. Next round, a new caller takes over.
That is it. Simple setup, fast laughs, and rounds that turn you and your friends into hunters by the end. If you want more Roblox games to play with friends, I picked five that stay fun over time. Fire it up and pick who gets to be the first lamp.
