Ping is the ultimate real-time hide and seek game that transforms any outdoor space into your personal game arena. Whether you are at a park, campus, neighborhood, or festival, Ping brings the classic childhood game into the digital age with GPS-powered gameplay that works anywhere. How It Works Getting started is simple. One player creates a party and shares a six digit code with friends. Everyone joins using the code and the host customizes the game settings. When ready, the host starts the game and the countdown begins. Hiders scatter while seekers wait. Once the countdown ends, the hunt is on. Seekers see periodic location pings from hiders on a real-time map. These pings show the approximate area where each hider was located, giving seekers clues to track them down. Hiders must stay on the move and avoid being found before time runs out. Three Exciting Game Modes Classic Mode is traditional hide and seek. Seekers hunt for hiders and tag them when found. Tagged players are out. If any hiders remain when time expires, the hiders win. If all hiders are found, the seekers win. Infection Mode adds a twist. When a seeker tags a hider, that hider becomes infected and joins the seeking team. The game becomes increasingly intense as more players turn into seekers. The last hider standing wins, or if everyone gets infected, the original seeker wins. Assassin Mode is a free for all where every player is both hunter and hunted. Each player receives a secret target to eliminate while avoiding their own unknown hunter. When you tag your target, you inherit their target and the chain continues. The last player standing wins. Customizable Settings Ping gives hosts complete control over the gameplay experience. Adjust ping intervals to control how often hider locations are revealed. Set them close together for fast-paced games or spread them out for more strategic play. Location fuzzing adds uncertainty by showing seekers an approximate area rather than exact coordinates. Increase the fuzz radius for larger playing areas or decrease it for more precise hunting. Add a delay between when pings are sent and when seekers see them, giving hiders extra time to relocate. Set game duration anywhere from five minutes for quick rounds to multiple days for extended adventures. Enable auto-tag to automatically tag hiders when a seeker gets within a set distance, perfect for removing disputes about whether someone was actually tagged. Choose between five or ten meter detection ranges. Control visibility options like whether hiders can see other hiders on the map or whether hiders can see seeker locations. Adjust how many previous pings remain visible to seekers to create different strategic dynamics. No Accounts Required Ping works instantly with no sign-up process. The app uses your device and iCloud for seamless synchronization between players. Just download, enter your display name, and start playing. Privacy First Your location is only shared during active games with players in your party. Ping does not track you outside of gameplay, does not store your location history, and does not share data with third parties. When a game ends, location data is deleted. Perfect For Any Group Ping works great for birthday parties, family reunions, team building events, college campus games, neighborhood adventures, camping trips, and anywhere else you want to add excitement. The game scales from small groups of three to large parties with dozens of players. Built For Reliability Ping uses Apple CloudKit for rock-solid synchronization between all players. Location updates are fast and accurate. The app is optimized for battery efficiency so you can play extended games without draining your device. Download Ping today and rediscover the thrill of hide and seek with modern technology. Create your first party in seconds and start the hunt.
