Hide The Body Beginner’s Guide: How To Play
Hide The Body is available for download via the Roblox app on PC, console, and mobile. The official listing is by the developer Doge Cloud. Once you install the game, you can queue for a match to start playing. You will randomly get a role and have to either hide or find bodies.
When a match starts, the team hiding the body gets a head start. If you are one of the players hiding the body, you have to find a safe spot quickly. There are various maps with different layouts, and you have to get used to them if you want to learn all the hiding spots. If your job is to hide a body and the seekers cannot find it in the given time, you win the match. Similarly, as a seeker, you have to find the hidden bodies to win a game.
The game does not have special abilities or any other gimmicks. It is a straightforward game of hide-and-seek. As you play more of the game, you will learn the map layouts and know the best hiding spots.
