Scratch Tag

What is Scratch Tag?-

Scratch Tag is an exciting multiplayer 2D battle royale game inspired by the gorilla tag from the past. Having a beautiful forest setting, this strange-goose title comes with an infection game mode where players need saying smarter and tagging out the opponent to remain the last one alive. Built with a focus on passion and originality, Scratch Tag is completely open source; you may check out the code yourself! If you love gorilla tag and own a Meta quest or Oculus Quest, you should not miss trying this. Scratch Tag, in its way, offers a fresh perspective to the much-loved concept, developed by a dedicated creator, also responsible for Chimplex.

How to Play

In Scratch Tag, ones who want to tag others and avoid being tagged find themselves in a forest environment. It becomes so much more exciting in an infection mode, where you can get infected and must find a cure or simply try to outwit others. Use the forest to your advantage; for example, trees, hills, or other obstacles can be great places to hide or even get on top. Thanks to the buffering system in the game, this awesome game guarantees smoothness with less chance of delay, making a fair competition.

Tips & Tricks:

• Stay Hidden: Use the forest terrain to hide behind trees or in dense foliage.
• Know the Tagging System: Be aware of how the tagging works, as it may differ a little from your typical gorilla tag.
• Keep Moving: Constant motion will make it difficult for others to tag you.
• Buffering System: It helps to reduce lag, so use it to your advantage to make swift moves.
