The history of brilliantly terrible World Cup video games

Seekers then come and try to find the hiders and, this being an online video game, shoot them. It's frantic, silly and fiendishly creative: finding a spot on one of the maps that you feel confident to paint yourself into - whether it's a laundry room or a farm outbuilding - is a challenging artistic and perceptual task, as well as a neat game mechanic. Meccha Chameleon perfectly encapsulates two popular and interconnected indie genres - prop games (hide and seek, but people disguise themselves as everyday objects) and the slightly pejoratively named "friendslop" (accessible, crudely designed multiplayer titles). So no wonder it has sold 7m units in less than a month.
