Hide and Seek
Hide and Seek turns a Fabric world into a hiding minigame, with players joining from the TAB player list to start a round.
What it does
The mod adds a Hide and Seek minigame that a player starts from the TAB player list. It is a Fabric mod for Minecraft 1.21.8 only, and the server and every player need it, since the environment is client and server. Its required dependencies are Cardinal Components API, Fabric API and Zine, and it is incompatible with Sodium. The author notes that a start button may not begin a game on some servers, and links an instruction video for how to play.

Minigame in the world

Joining from the player list

Known start issue
The author reports that the start button may not launch a game on some servers, possibly because of other mods present.

What the author says
Turn your world in to a Hide and Seek Minigame! Press TAB (player list key) to join and start the game! If the start button can be clicked but doesn't start the game, it's likely due to this mod not being present on the server!
