Hide & Prey

About the Game

The children of Saint-Lazare do not sleep. Neither does she.

Hide & Prey is a co-op horror game for 1 to 5 players. Every night, a handful of orphans slip out of their dorm to search a crumbling orphanage for the sacred Graals, the only way to end the ritual that binds them. Every night, the nun who runs this house walks its corridors to take them back. Hide, run, help each other... or be dragged into her room.

One night. One house. One nun.

Your lamp is the only light you can trust, and its oil runs out. Every floorboard creaks, every door she hears, every step you take in the dark is a step closer to being found. She listens. She remembers where you hid. And when the lightning strikes, you may see her standing at the end of the corridor... or you may not see her at all.

• A house that changes every night — the Graals hide in different furniture, the ritual room moves, locked rooms, power cuts, collapsing ceilings, storms and the dreaded Red Night, when no hiding place is safe.

• Fear is your enemy too — stay in the dark too long and your hands start to shake, your breath gives you away, your steps grow louder. Stay close to your friends to calm down.

• She does not just walk — she teleports, stalks, breaks down doors, sets the floor ablaze, and when the chase drags on, her bones snap and she comes at you on all fours.

Together, or not at all

Caught once, you are possessed and dragged away, and only your friends can free you. Caught for good, you are not out: the dead haunt the house, slam doors, blow out lamps, walk right behind the living... to help them, or to doom them.

• Online co-op up to 5, with proximity voice chat... and she has learned to imitate your voices.

• Two players on one PC, split screen or one screen each.

• Play solo with orphans who hide, panic and run for the ritual.

• Holy water, crucifix, bells, bones for her hound — every tool buys you a few seconds. Never more.

Or become her

One player can be the nun. Walk her corridors in her heavy steps, sense the children behind the walls, pull them out of their wardrobes, call your flames, and take them all before the ritual is done. The orphans can face the nun or a friend, and you can also play the nun alone against the orphans.

Every night leaves a mark

• Her letters — after each night, she writes to you. About you.

• Vows — swear a vow before the night for a harder challenge and light the beads of the rosary.

• A reliquary of 33 relics, 35 Steam achievements and world leaderboards for the fastest nights, as the orphans and as the nun.

• Streamer mode — your Twitch chat votes during the night to help you... or to betray you.

Saint-Lazare is waiting.

Light your lamp. Keep quiet. And whatever you hear behind that door... do not open it.
