hide and seek hiding places tier list

crwthcrwth THAT'S ITRegistered User regular
under the bed - D tier; it’s basically the first place people look
in a cabinet - A tier; this is good. if you’re small enough there are a lot of options
behind a tree - B tier; deceptively good spot imo. depending on the angle the seeker might not even see you
up a tree - S tier; hard to beat imo. even if they see you they have to get you, either they climb up or they wait

please add your own, provide an explanation

    Under the stairs: C
    It works sometimes, but is usually findable.

    Under the stairs, in/behind a box: A

    Tape yourself to the seeker's back. Never get found.

    C Tier- Submerged in a pile of dirty laundry. Pros: Can hide in plain sight and emerge like a triumphant sea creature at the game's conclusion. Cons: Have to hold breath and not move for extended periods to pull it off, plus why are you still living like this

    D Tier- Embedded tumor/parasitic twin situation. Pros: Unlikely to be found without the aid of a medical professional/equipment Cons: Possibly not worth the effort to win at a game of Hide and Seek

    F Tier- Disguised as a lamp/table/statue Pros: Low effort, can get into position quickly, they probably won't be expecting it Cons: Typically only works for the long game if you're hiding from an Elmer Fudd/Yosemite Sam type

    behind the couch is C tier, it really depends on configuration. If you can wedge into a small hidden gap, it's goated. Other times, you're left out in the open

    Inside a dryer.

    Which is how I won my freshman dorm's hide and seek event.

    Well, "won." I was inside a fuckin dryer for nearly an hour.

    A tier - The second to last place they'd look

    Playing with small kids tier: Somewhere comfortable with a phone or book. Under sheets of your bed. Advanced mode: under sheets on their bed.

    Mind games tier: Shove pillows under sheets to make it look like a person is hiding there. But all the pillows are missing from the bed, obviously it is a fake out. Hide under the sheets with the pillows. Double fake out.

    I generally go for someplace high if possible.

    A lot of people are bad at looking up, so if you can get outside of the direct sightline you're in good shape.

    In college the drama program had a couple of all night lock ins a year. Hang out in the theatre, play improv games, watch a movie (probably theatre connected), et cetera. We'd do one at the start of the year as a like, way to meet new people who had joined the program, and one towards the end of the year to wrap things up.

    Anyways, the thing was, we were not actually locked in, and our theatre was attached to one of the academic buildings, which by around 11 or 12 would be completely empty (and that would be locked, but we were already inside). Which meant we played very large games of hide and seek in whatever classrooms/offices/whatever had been left unlocked within the building - a lot of it ends up being largely identical classrooms, but in some ways to makes it more difficult to be vigilant about checking every shadowed corner, and it was an old building with some fun idiosyncrasies.

    I had a few signature spots that were that exact sort of high up thing - there were a few rooms that I could pretty effectively get above the doorframe of, at which point if someone just pokes their head into the (mostly empty) room to scan around, you'll get missed entirely. If they come all the way in its a bit harder, but even then they might not look up at a shadowy corner necessarily.

    Most recently I played hide and seek with my eight year old niece in a park. I just laid down on a bench on my phone the whole time and nobody ever found me, but it was very sunny and I did get a little bit toasted in the process.

    I've successfully used behind the curtains like the last 5 times I played hide and seek with the kids. Gonna be sad when they get old enough to figure it out and I have to actually find a real hiding spot

    I think the best are really banal places where it's like "nobody would hide there that's too easy". Like just behind a shed or something.

  • facetiousfacetious a wit so dry it shits sandRegistered User regular
    of course the BEST best are hiding spots that are within sight of the seekers' starting location

    especially if you make a big deal of making a lot of sound running away at first then creep back and hide silently while they still have their eyes closed

    Standing in a closet inside someone's long-disused wool coat: A-tier. Though your legs are exposed, the human brain works on pattern recognition and just legs inside a coat in a busy closet can go completely unnoticed.

    it is SO satisfying hiding in plain sight
    I remember doing hide and seek at a summer camp in the forest when I was young, I realized I had a dark green sweatshirt on, so I just stood still among some bushes in plain sight of the seekers while they counted, I was never found

    Bonus tale of hiding (if not seeking):

    My senior year of college, my best friend (and roommate) dropped out halfway through the year and moved back home. He only lived like an hour away though, so he'd come back pretty much every weekend to hang out, and he still had keys to our on campus apartment and all that.

    Anyways, one weekend he got in while myself and any other roommates were still in class or otherwise out of the house, and decided to crawl fully inside our broken ass dorm couch. I guess once he got in there he got on the wifi on his phone (the smartphone timeline might not quite line up here, so maybe his iPod touch) and just hung out - I think I had a conversation with him even, not realizing he was already on campus. He didn't reveal himself for hours, and only eventually did when several people were in the apartment, making plans and even like, talking about how we needed to wait for him to show up before we could head back out, and someone finally sat down on the couch and he could wrap his arms around them.

    I used to just leave the property but be where I could still see the yard, so watch them find everyone else and keeps looking for me, then sneak back over and hide somewhere that'd already been checked. blahblah not in the spirit of the game I say I was just on a different level
