About This Game

The forest doesn't care if you're ready.

Hidebehind is a co-op survival horror game for up to 6 players. Get in, explore a forest that's never the same way twice, and get out before something finds you.

Your flashlight is the only thing standing between you and the dark. Every battery drained is a decision. Light draws attention. So does being blind. Use it to find your way, signal your team, and second-guess every shadow that moves wrong.

Record your scream. It becomes part of the game. Hidebehind captures your real voice and your friends' voices, then plays them back when it matters most. Scream, laugh, panic, whatever happens at the table happens in the run. Every group sounds different. Every ending plays back differently, because it's actually you.

Find the way out. Together. If you can agree on what "together" means. Explore. Gather what you need. Find the keys. Reach the bunker. Communication keeps your team alive. But only if everyone's seeing the same forest.

Something is already watching. You're not alone out there. It doesn't reveal itself the same way twice, and it doesn't show itself to everyone the same way at the same time.

Mature Content Description

The developers describe the content like this:

This game contains psychological horror themes and tense situations in which player characters may be pursued and suddenly “taken” by a supernatural entity.

There is no gore, no visible blood, and no graphic depictions of violence. When a player is taken, the event is implied rather than shown.

The game features dark environments, suspenseful audio design, and sudden disappearance events that may be frightening to some players.

Players can record short custom “shout” audio clips that are played when their character is taken. These recordings are entirely user-generated and may contain unpredictable content. Online multiplayer includes proximity voice chat.
