Overview

HAUNT is a multiplayer hide-and-seek game that turns the classic childhood game into a tense, spooky showdown. Developed by Bean and published by Apostolos Games, this action-casual indie title pits two teams against each other: Hunters and Ghosts.

The rules are simple, but the tension is real. Hunters must find and eliminate every Ghost before time runs out, while Ghosts must stay hidden and survive until the round ends.

It's a game of patience, nerve, and clever use of the environment.

Highlights

  • Hide in Plain Sight: As a Ghost, you become invisible when you stand still. The catch? Moving too much gives away your position. This creates a constant push-and-pull between staying safe and making a break for it.
  • Team-Based PvP: Players are split into Hunters and Ghosts, with online PvP and co-op modes supporting the multiplayer experience. Whether you're hunting or hiding, every round is a fresh test of wits.
  • Character Customization: The Steam tags highlight character customization, letting you personalize your ghost or hunter before diving into the chaos.

Who It's For

If you enjoy party games with a horror twist, or you're looking for something fun to play with friends online, HAUNT fits the bill. It's accessible enough for casual players but has enough depth to keep competitive groups engaged.

The blend of stealth, strategy, and light horror makes it a great pick for game nights or quick sessions.
