About This Game

Hide from the hunters. Find the ghosts. Survive the hunt.

HAUNT is a multiplayer hide-and-seek game where ghosts hide in plain sight while hunters search for them. Ghosts are invisible while standing still, but moving too much can give away their position.

Hide and Seek

The rules are simple. Players are split into Hunters and Ghosts. Hunters must find and eliminate every Ghost before time runs out. Ghosts must stay hidden and survive until the round ends.

Hide in Plain Sight

As a Ghost, use the environment to your advantage. Stay still to remain invisible, find a good hiding spot, and carefully choose when to move.

You can run when you need to escape, but Hunters will be able to see you if you move too much.

Hunt the Ghosts

Hunters have several tools to help find hidden Ghosts, including a flashlight, EMF reader, and pistol.

Ghosts can take four hits before they are eliminated, so finding one does not always mean the hunt is over.

Play With Friends

Steam Workshop

Including a link to the HAUNT Steam store page in your video or stream description is optional, but would be greatly appreciated because I'm broke.
