Yeeps: Hide and Seek

Yeeps: Hide and Seek, or more commonly, Yeeps, is a game developed by Trass Games, a game studio based in San Francisco, California.

History

Yeeps: Hide and Seek is a popular free VR game for the Meta Quest 2, 3, 3s and Pro. Yeeps: Hide and Seek was created in 2024 and has grown massively since then. It has Minecraft and Fortnite mechanics, according to the unofficial Yeeps: Hide and Seek subreddit, and Gorilla Tag's movement. 

Gameplay

In Yeeps: Hide and Seek there are multiple modes such as Tap Tag, Hide-and-seek (the original), Hang Out, and many more, like FFA Arena, Hunt, or Outlaw. There are 2 main modes, Play Mode, and Build Mode. In Play Mode, you can either play maps made by the developers, or maps created by the community, which are accessible via community worlds or private worlds. In Build Mode, you can make your own maps in private or community worlds, or you can go to free build or wilds and build things with other players. Freebuild is a lot more limited than Wilds (i.e weather blocks do not work, you cannot paste in maps, etc), so it is generally recommended you go to Wilds instead.

Hide and Seek

Hide and Seek is one of the many game modes in Yeeps. In Hide and Seek. In this gamemode, 1 player is randomly selected as a seeker. The seeker gets 3 pins, and hider get 3 hearts. Throwing a pin at hider does 1 heart, and stabbing them with a pin does 3. When a hider runs out of hearts, they are transformed into a seeker, gaining 3 pins of their own. The game ends when either the time limit for the game ends and at least 1 hider is left, so the hiders win, or the seekers catch every hider, causing them to win.

Tap Tag

Tap Tag is a game mode based on tag. A person is selected as seeker, and has to tag others. You are given many gadgets (i.e. fireworks, teleport balls, fire extinguishers) to aid in tagging or hiding. Once all players are tagged, the game ends and the taggers win. Otherwise, if 1 or more people are left, then the hiders win.

Goblins

Goblins is a gamemode where 1 player is selected as the goblin, and must kill every non-goblin Yeep. If you become a goblin, you must kill other non-goblin Yeeps. If the goblin team manages to kill every Yeep, they win, but if 1 or more Yeeps survive, the Yeeps win.

Adventure

Adventure was the main thing introduced in Yeeps 2.0, with many different maps in an open-world like world. Maps like Gnome Capital, Build Central, and Ocean Village were examples of a couple of maps on the Map Block in Yeeps 2.0. Ever since the Back to Suburbs update, transportation has mainly switched to portals instead of hallways/passageways, and the Gnome Capital map, the former hub of Yeeps, was replaced by the Home map, where Adventure can be directly accessed from the Adventure portal, or as of the Fishing Update, the new Fishy Harbor map that can be accessed otherwise via the Volcano map, which leads to Ocean Village, Pirate Cove, and Lava Depths, a vault. A couple of maps like Build Central were however deleted in Yeeps: Back to Suburbs.
