BlockHideAndSeek
by myworldzycpc
BlockHideAndSeek brings a hide-and-seek minigame to 1.12.2 Forge, in which hiders disguise themselves as terrain blocks and hunters search for them.
What it does
Hiders turn into blocks that blend in with the terrain, and hunters have a limited time to find and eliminate them. The mod provides the full game engine for this minigame, including a lobby where players gather before a round starts and a morph command for transforming into other entities.
Setting up a round starts with a settings item that opens a configuration screen. From there, a lobby location is chosen as the coordinate where players gather, and the current map is registered with a spawn point. Map builders are expected to enclose the play area with blocks and rely on the out-of-bounds prevention the mod supplies. Client and server exchange data through Forge's SimpleNetworkWrapper.
The mod runs on Forge for Minecraft 1.12.2 and nothing else. It is released under the GNU Lesser General Public License v2.1 only, is open source, and has public links for its source code and issue tracker. The first build was published on 2026-08-19, and the 1.2 file is the only one listed.
