Behind Living Room CouchLOW

Couch blocks Homer's line of sight from the front door. Stay crouched behind the far end for best concealment.

🚪 Escape: Kitchen door, front window

Under Kitchen TableMED

Common hiding spot but effective in chaotic rounds. Best with dark skins that blend with floor shadows.

🚪 Escape: Back door, living room

Bart's Bedroom ClosetHIGH

Homer checks this early. Only use if you plan to relocate in the first 30 seconds of the hunt phase.

🚪 Escape: Bedroom window only

Garage Behind BoxesMED

Single entrance makes this risky, but the stacked boxes create a tight spot that's hard to navigate into.

🚪 Escape: Garage door only (risky!)

Rooftop (via Stacked Boxes)LOW

⭐ Advanced spot. Stack boxes to reach roof. Most Homers don't check here. Requires wall-hop skill.

🚪 Escape: Jump down to any side

Door creates a blind spot when open. Tuck behind it and Homer walks right past.

🚪 Escape: Basement stairs, sneak upstairs

💡 Pro Hiding Tips

  • 🎭 Use dark skins (Emo, Ghost Bart, Witch) on dark/indoor maps for stealth advantage
  • 🔄 Rotate spots — don't use the same spot twice in a row. Homer will check it again
  • ⏱️ Time your movements — relocate when Homer is on the other side of the map
  • 👂 Listen for footsteps — Homer's footsteps are louder and give away his position
  • 🏃 Have an escape plan — always know 2+ exit routes before committing to a spot
  • 🧱 Learn wall-hopping — unlocks rooftop and elevated spots that beginners can't reach
