About Hidden in Plain Sight

✦ AI summary

Hidden in Plain Sight is a local multiplayer game where 2-4 players blend in with crowds of identical NPCs to accomplish objectives while trying to eliminate each other with limited weapons. Quick, chaotic rounds create constant tension between pursuing your goal and staying inconspicuous, making it perfect for groups looking for accessible couch co-op mayhem.

LOCAL-MULTIPLAYER ONLY. NO SINGLE PLAYER OR ONLINE. REQUIRES XBOX COMPATIBLE (OR EMULATED) CONTROLLERS.



Hidden in Plain Sight is a set of local multiplayer (2-4 players) game modes that share a common theme: trying to accomplish goals without drawing attention to yourself.

In each game mode, players control characters in a sea of identical NPCs. Players are given a task, but also the means to eliminate each other from the game. The goal is to blend in with the NPCs, accomplish the task at hand, and take out other players before they get you.

One of the simplest game modes is called "Death Race." Players and NPCs are racing to be the first to cross a finish line. Each player has a gun with one bullet, and can eliminate one person from the race. Do you sprint ahead, calling attention to yourself but maximizing you chances of winning? Or do you hang back with the pack?

Other game modes create similar tension by putting players in a conflicted position of wanting to accomplish a goal, but risking elimination by doing so.

Rounds are quick and lively, and always end in laughter and friendly shouting. So grab your controllers and friends and give it a shot!

✦ AI summary

Hidden in Plain Sight is consistently praised by players as an excellent couch co-op and party game that works well with friends and family, with particular appreciation for the developer's long-term support spanning over a decade. Players highlight the game's simplicity combined with surprising depth and nuance, and note that the recent addition of online multiplayer has expanded its appeal beyond local play. The overwhelmingly positive reception suggests this is worth picking up for anyone seeking a fun multiplayer experience, particularly if you regularly play games with others.

Great little local multi group game, a regular in our rotation. But the best part is the dev still supporting it 12 years later - thats the type of support that makes PC gaming so great, thanks dev.

[h1] DISCLAIMER: This is a first impressions review, and NOT a full review [/h1] Hidden in Plain Sight is a game developed and published by Adam Spragg The game offers some nice graphics and a great aesthetic which is pleasant all the same and has some amazing attention to detail Hidden in Plain Sight overall, however, is a simple yet oddly satisfying game to play, especially with friends together, and is a great party game to play as long as you like! [h1] RECOMMENDED :) [/h1] [i] THEPCGAMER'S BEST GAME IN STEAM LIBRARY! (What's this? :- Like some games get "Best Game of 2014" or "Best Indie Game", etc... So I have decided to make my own!)

Planet Coaster DLC: skip the collection, buy the packs

The Planet Coaster DLC catalogue closed in 2019, so there is no curve left to wait out. Our record shows the collection bundle costs far more than assembling the same packs one by one.
