Developed and published by Funcom, your goal in the game is to get your opponent to reveal himself or herself by setting traps and even using spells as you are both invisible to one another. Hide and Shriek is played in ten-minute one-on-on matches so you will have to move quick and outwit your opponent.

Witch It
Playing hide-and-seek can difficult as it is but when who you are seeking are actually witches with magical powers, things get even harder than it already is. This is exactly what you are going to experience when you try out Witch It.
Developed by Barrell Roll Games and published by Daedalic Entertainment, you can get to play as a hunter or a witch. Naturally, the hunters seek out the witches, who have the ability to blend in with their environment and even use magic to evade the hunters, according to the game's Steam page.
This means that witches can mimic any physical object in the environment so, yes, a fork lying around innocently can actually be a witch.
