About Pixel Chroma

PAINT. HIDE. SURVIVE.

PIXEL CHROMA is an online multiplayer hide-and-seek game where you paint your own character to blend into the environment.

Become part of a wall—or even a decoration on the floor.

PAINT YOURSELF AND HIDE

Paint your blank white character and blend into your surroundings. Anyone can create a unique disguise simply by filling in pixels and choosing colors. Where you hide is entirely up to you. Just make sure the seeker doesn’t notice you.

CHANGE YOUR SHAPE

If color alone isn’t enough, change your shape. Transform into a mushroom, star, cube, and more. Each form gives your character a different silhouette.

Choose a shape that fits your surroundings and hide in plain sight.

SPOT THE SUSPICIOUS PIXELS

Now it’s your turn to be the seeker. The other players could be hiding anywhere on the map. Study your surroundings and track down suspicious Chroma.

A strange pattern on a wall. A shadow that doesn’t quite fit. A single pixel in a slightly different shade. A seeker’s greatest weapon is a sharp eye.

TAUNT AND LURE THE SEEKER

Staying perfectly still isn’t always the best strategy. If you’re feeling confident, use a taunt to lure the seeker toward you.

You might buy your teammates enough time to move somewhere safer. It’s a risky move—but if it works, it could turn the entire match around.

DRAW YOUR OWN NICKNAME

Tired of expressing yourself with letters alone? Now you can draw it instead.

In PIXEL CHROMA, your nickname can be your own work of art. Combine the included designs with your own creations and show every player what makes you unique.

HIDE-AND-SEEK FOR UP TO 12 PLAYERS

Jump into matchmaking and meet players from around the world, or create a private room and play with friends. Every disguise is created by the players, so no two matches are ever the same. Even on the same map, a brand-new game of hide-and-seek awaits every time.
