Mimic Busters Launches on Steam with 38% Off Through October 30
The modeling tool is the mechanic, not a cosmetic extra: Mimics build their own hiding forms from cubes, so the game's skill ceiling sits in player-made shapes rather than preset props.

Mimic Busters, developed by DevAdam and Tape Corps and published by GameDev.ist, launched on PC via Steam on October 16. The online multiplayer hide-and-seek game splits players into Mimics, who 3D-model themselves into forms resembling surrounding objects, and Hunters, who try to spot them. It is priced at 570 yen during a 38% launch discount through October 30, down from 920 yen.
Mimics begin each round as a plain cube and shape and paint themselves into something that resembles the objects around them. Points go up for hiding in a large form or right next to an MBI investigator, so players weigh being hard to find against chasing a bigger score.
The Hunter side gets one recurring clue: Mimics make a sound every 30 seconds, and each shot costs stamina. Alongside the standard mode, the game includes a quiz mode called Guess the Mimic! and a Deathmatch mode.
