Sneak A Snack

One camper makes hand shadows on the tent wall; the other reads them from the canteen and fetches the snacks. You start at the campfire with the game menu in front of you. Play together with two headsets, or choose Practice alone.

The game

Two players pair up with the same four-symbol room code and swap stations every round.

How to play

  1. 1
    Start at the campfire. The Sneak A Snack menu is in front of you. To press a button with hands, aim at it, pinch your thumb and index finger together, then release, or touch it with a fingertip. With a controller, press and release the trigger.
  2. 2
    Choose who hosts. One player selects Host a game; the other selects Join a game. The host reads the four room-code symbols aloud, from left to right.
  3. 3
    Connect and enter. The joining player selects those four symbols in order and presses Join. The host presses Enter level. Once both players are connected, the host starts the game using the in-scene board or clipboard.
  4. 4
    Follow your role. Read the numbered instructions at your station. One player makes hand shadows; the other reads them and responds. Keep your hands between the light and the tent wall. In the canteen, grab the pillowcase at your hip to open it, then drop each snack in its numbered slot: slot 1 is line 1 of the list. Let go and it goes back to your hip, tied shut. The game moves you automatically when roles switch, fading to black and back.
  5. 5
    Move with your hands (recommended). Hold a hand low with the palm facing in and tap your thumb on the side of your index finger: an arc appears. Aim it at the floor and tap again to teleport. Swipe your thumb left or right along the finger to turn, forward or back to step. Raise your hand to stop. Make shadows with your hands up, so they never move you. If no arc appears, point a low hand at the floor, then pinch and release. With controllers: push the thumbstick forward to teleport and flick it left or right to turn.
  6. 6
    Get help. Hold your left palm up, or press B / Y, to open the menu. Moving & hands shows every control; How to play explains your station; Leave to the campfire ends the game and takes you back to the start. For solo play, choose Practice alone.
