OUTLIER, 16-player backrooms hide-and-seek game, gets trailer
Players in protective suits must blend in with staff, saluting at roll call and hiding sudden urges to moonwalk or breakdance.
An announcement trailer has been released for OUTLIER, an online hide-and-seek game for up to 16 players set in a backrooms-style environment, according to 4gamer.net.
Players take on the role of staff in protective suits and must avoid the attention of guards who patrol with guns looking for suspicious workers. The core of the game is blending in: walking and stopping in time with the staff around you.
The twist is a set of symptoms that push players to perform movements such as moonwalking or breakdancing. Players have to move to relieve those symptoms without being spotted by a guard.
Roll call adds another rule to remember, with players required to salute when a guard checks the line-up.
