In modern Greece hide-and-seek is called kryfto. Hide-and-seek appears to be equivalent to the game apodidraskinda, described by the 2nd-century Greek writer Julius Pollux. Alternatively, only one child hides and is sought by all the rest, as in sardines, where the hider is joined by seekers surreptitiously as they find him (the name of the game coming from the crowded condition of the hiding place).

The game is played differently in various regions sometimes the seeker may be helped by those he finds.

In one of many forms of the game, the hiders try to run back to “home base” while the seeker is away looking for them if all of the hiders return safely, the seeker repeats as seeker in the next round. The seeker then opens his eyes and tries to find the hiders the first one found is the next seeker, and the last is the winner of the round. Hide-and-seek, old and popular children’s game in which one player closes his or her eyes for a brief period (often counting to 100) while the other players hide.
